Georgia
Physiotherapist
Georgia grew up playing high-level basketball — including representing New Zealand with the Tall Ferns and the NZ 3x3 team — and spent a lot of time on the other side of the physio table before she ever worked in one. That experience shapes everything about how she practises. She knows what it actually takes to get athletes back, and she knows the difference between being cleared and being ready.
She completed her undergraduate degree in Exercise Science on a Division I athletic scholarship in the United States, before returning home to New Zealand to study physiotherapy at AUT, graduating in 2020. She holds a qualification in dry needling and is currently completing her postgraduate diploma in musculoskeletal physiotherapy — a forever student who believes her patients deserve someone who never stops learning.
Her clinical passions are post-operative rehabilitation (with a special interest in ACL rehab), postpartum recovery, and strength-led rehab for older adults who want to move and feel better for life. She brings the same criteria-based, no-shortcuts approach to every patient — whether they're chasing a podium or just chasing their grandkids.
Outside the clinic, you'll find her hiking, at the beach, buried in a good book, or watching as much basketball as her toddler will allow. (The toddler is yet to show any signs of a jump shot. Georgia is patient.)
