A physiotherapy practice on Karori Road in Karori, Wellington, led by Grethe, a physiotherapist of more than 30 years who has run the practice since 1995. The practice offers hands-on treatment for musculoskeletal injuries and post-operative recovery.
Each visit starts with a check of personal and ACC details and a full assessment, then a diagnosis and a rehabilitation plan. Treatment continues with hands-on work, and the progress of exercises is checked at each visit. A referral is not needed, and you can book directly. Bring any ACC or other health documents. Loose clothes are comfortable, and shorts help with hip, knee or ankle problems. A support person is welcome.
Parking is three spaces in front of the building, and a larger car park is across the road behind the Marsden Village shops. Several bus routes stop in Marsden Village. The website says the Karori Village Health Centre is wheelchair accessible.
To cancel, call or email at least four working hours before the appointment. A missed appointment without notice may be charged. If the phone is not answered after five rings, leave a voicemail or send an email.
Patients describe Grethe as diligent and compassionate, and say she explains things clearly. Some have been seeing her for years for back, knee and hip problems.
The practice is at 146 Karori Road, Karori. Our pick in Karori for a back, knee or hip problem that needs a clear plan.
