Whether their body is not capable of that level because of :

• Pain

• Previous Injury

• Working long hours

• Life and family getting in the way

If you want to get back to Running, long walks, the gym or training for a physical challenge, Can’t sit or sleep because you can not get comfortable with the pain. Want to roll over in bed without being in pain. Don’t look forward to the morning because you know those first few steps are going to suck.

Absolutely everything is sore? We can help you solve these problems.

Using our 6 Step Connect Therapy System used by Professional Sporting Teams, International Olympic physiotherapists assesses, previous injuries and your other body systems to understand why you are in pain and what is the driver or key issues causing it.

We can help you:

• Understand why you are in pain

• What is causing it

• Reverse engineer what you want to be doing actively

• Create a plan and work with you to complete your goals or what you want out of your body whether the plan is in your home or at our Pilates and strength studio

Once you have completed your plan or achieved your goal we won’t keep treating you. We are confident you will have the self management tools, program and knowledge to continue to manage it yourself.

Do not come and see us if you:

• Simply want a massage

• Are not motivated to do the work to get to your goals

• Want a 20 minute “patch up” session without fully understanding why your are in pain

Hands on Physiotherapy is definitely part of our approach to get you out of pain asap and can include: Massage, release with awareness,  dry needling, the thoracic ring approach and K Taping.

However we also need to address the potential muscle weakness in some areas  and muscle tightness left by previous injuries and or postural daily habits. Our approach combines the above with the latest injury scientific evidence which is largely focused around specific Physiotherapy exercises

If you have a coach or trainer we will work very closely with them to achieve your outcomes.

THE waiheke physio service

Looking for a Waiheke Physio and bespoke Pilates environment? Or would prefer your Physio in the privacy of your own home?

Our Waiheke Physio service was born from a combination of COVID 19 and the desire to raise our kids the kiwi way.

The Waiheke Physio clinic is our exciting new addition to Balance In Motion Physio, helping us to be one of the only international Physiotherapy Companies on the planet. 

The clinic offers the knowledge and experience of 20 years of helping Wimbledon Tennis Finalists, Olympic Gold Medallists, Professional Rugby Players and Professional athletes in London and Sydney. Our expansion into New Zealand came from our CEO moving his young family to Waiheke Island and his inability to travel to Sydney in the foreseeable future (and his daughters instructions to spend less time in Sydney!) 

We believe that we are all athletes and our job is to help you reach better heights with your body. 

We understand that some of the brilliant people of Waiheke Island would prefer to be treated in the privacy of their own homes so now we offer Waiheke’s first mobile Physiotherapy service. 

Our clinic includes the latest Allegro 2 Pilates reformer, the wunda chair and spring board for a varied Pilates experience.

The clinic is equipped with a treadmill for digital analysis of running and walking technique, and a full weights machine room.

Our appointments are 60 minutes of ‘one on one’ time to help us really:

• Solve the problem rather than a rushed 20 minute approach 

• Help you become happier within your body

• Get on and train for whatever your next big physical goal is 

We are highly unique to New Zealand as the only Connect Therapy Physiotherapy clinic. This style of Physiotherapy created by Dr LJ and Diane Lee of Canada is used by many Sports Physiotherapists and professional sporting organisations around the world including the Manchester City Physiotherapy team who had the lowest number of injuries last year and quickest return to sport from injuries in the xxx league.

The Connect Therapy model looks at your whole body, the system involved, and your past injuries - rather than just looking at the source of the pain to fully correct your issues and provide a “band aid” solution.”

We don’t do old school machines, heat packs or ice packs - just evidence based hands on Physio with the latest research based rehab programs from the US, Canada and Australia.  

If you would prefer to have your Physiotherapy (or pilates) session in the privacy of your home then this be arranged by simply clicking here and booking online OR calling us directly to schedule your time.  

We look forward to helping you perform better, get back to feeling good in your body again or get back to whatever makes you happy and healthy.

Nick Torrance

ABOUT NICK

Nick Torrance, his wife Carla, two kids and pets moved to the island having spent 20 years away living in London and Sydney, where Nick worked closely with his mentor, the world famous, ground breaking Physio Dr lj Lee.

“10 years ago I was exhausted. I’d been seeing 20 patients a day every 20 mins feeling like I worked in a sweatshop. I had found Connect Therapy (our approach) which looked at the whole body, previous injuries and other body systems.

It just made sense that the body and its systems were so closely linked and it didn’t make sense that a sore shoulder is always a sore shoulder because of a shoulder problem. It made sense that a twisted pelvis from a bike crash, a previous broken ankle, broken hips or a constantly stiff neck could have a powerful relationship on the shoulder. Treating these rather than repeating the same thing with the shoulder led to far better results. People who had been in pain for years were significantly better from taking a more holistic approach.
