Peak Physio in Miramar is a private physiotherapy clinic on Miramar Avenue, in the eastern suburbs of Wellington. Its team treats injuries, chronic pain, post-operative rehabilitation and sports injuries, and it also looks at posture, movement and biomechanics to prevent injury. Techniques named on the website include manual therapy, dry needling, joint mobilisation and exercise prescription, with ACC claims lodged for accident, sports and workplace injuries. No GP referral is needed, and the clinic asks for payment on the day of the appointment unless other arrangements are made.
Within a kilometre there is one other physiotherapy listing, Habit Health Evans Bay, 0.5 km away, rated 4.5 from 35 reviews. Peak Physio is set apart by its focus on athletes, from weekend warriors to elite performers, and by the work it does on the source of pain rather than only the symptoms. For a Miramar resident who wants a physio close to home and does not need a referral, the clinic is a practical choice. Its team also works with ACC, which covers many injuries from accidents at work or in sport.
