A physiotherapy clinic at 116a Chadwick Road in Greerton, Tauranga, Back In Action also works on site at Bethlehem College. The clinic is a manual therapy practice at heart: its physiotherapists work mainly with their hands, using mobilisations and, with consent, high-velocity manipulations. Sports massage is offered during training, before an event, or after one, and the clinic uses both rigid tape and ROCKTAPE. Treatments can include acupuncture for musculoskeletal injuries and trigger point therapy, and dry needling, where very small needles go into specific points. The clinic also treats jaw pain and temporomandibular joint pain. Each treatment ends with a home exercise programme and, in the final stage, exercises that load the body the way a return to sport will.
The clinic says it tailors treatment to each person's lifestyle and goals, and it is a sponsor of Craig Kirkwood Coaching, Greerton Marist Sports Club, Rangataua Sports and Cultural Club and AzOne Touch Club, so its staff are often at local sports fixtures. The phone numbers are 07 213 0094 and 021 438 825.
