A physiotherapy practice based in the Paraparaumu Medical Centre at 40 Ihakara Street, on the Kapiti Coast, run by Lesley Unka, who has over 30 years' experience. Lesley treats every patient herself, and the practice says it covers the Kapiti Coast, including Levin, Ōtaki, Waikanae, Paraparaumu and Paekakariki. Her qualifications are a Diploma in Physiotherapy, a Post Graduate Diploma in Manipulative Therapy, and membership of the Manipulative Physiotherapists Association of New Zealand. She works on knee, shoulder, back and neck pain, and on sports and leisure injuries. A session starts with a thorough assessment, and treatment plans are tailored to each patient. Lesley says she expects noticeable improvement within one to three sessions. If physiotherapy is not the right treatment, she can refer patients to a specialist. Appointments can be requested through an online form, choosing a preferred day and time, and the phone line is (04) 293 3126 for urgent needs.
