Bio
Michele is a South African with a love for physiotherapy and working in Aotearoa. Growing up in competitive sports such as gymnastics, springboard diving and ballet influenced Michele’s love and understanding of movement and her own personal rehabilitation from multiple sports injuries gives her understanding from a patient’s perspective. She believes in not only treating the injury but also preventing reinjury or future injuries. She takes a combined approach of hand-on techniques for pain management as well as education and exercise therapy to aid in total recovery. In addition, Michele also offers respiratory physiotherapy services to help improve breathing and lung function for a wide variety of respiratory conditions in both paediatrics and adults. She also facilitates group exercises classes in Ashburton. Outside of work, Michele enjoys snowboarding, painting, dancing and exploring the South Island in her campervan with her dog.
