Fusion Physio Ahuriri is an ACC-accredited clinic in a shed on Lever Street, near the seaside in Ahuriri, Napier. It offers physiotherapy, Western medical acupuncture and clinical Pilates under one roof. The business was founded in 2017 and says it treats acute injuries as well as long-standing and recurring ones. It has worked with sports teams from social to representative level, and it also treats people who simply want to move more easily.
Treatment includes manual and manipulative therapy, dry needling, one-to-one physiotherapy or Pilates sessions in the clinic or at home, and biomechanical assessments for people with repeat injuries or a sense that something is holding back their performance. The clinic says its senior physiotherapists all hold postgraduate qualifications, and that every Pilates instructor has trained in Polestar Pilates, which the clinic chose for its in-depth education and up-to-date research. Physiotherapy and exercise are also used for chronic conditions such as lower back pain and arthritis. For someone in Napier who wants rehab and Pilates in the same place, that combination is the main reason to visit.
