Physiotherapy is about finding what’s causing your pain or problem and working together to sort it. Using hands-on treatment and simple movement work to help you feel stronger and more comfortable in your body. It’s real support that fits into your life, not just a list of exercises.

Acupuncture is a calm, gentle way to help your body relax and heal. It’s great for pain, stress, and tight muscles. I often use it alongside other treatments modalities to support recovery and help you feel more balanced, inside and out.

Massage helps release tight muscles, ease pain, and give your body the reset it needs. Every session is tailored to how you’re feeling on the day – whether you need something firm and focused or more gentle and relaxing. It’s all about helping you feel better and move more freely.

Testimonials

  • “ As a rugby player, I've experienced my share of injuries. Dee not only helped me recover quickly but also educated me on injury prevention. Her support has been crucial in keeping me on the field and playing my best. Dee’s compassionate approach and expertise have made a remarkable difference in my recovery I can't recommend Coultervate Recovery enough.”

    Chris

  • “ I came to Coultervate Recovery after having multiple ankle surgeries that had left me struggling with pain, weakness, and limited mobility. From the very first appointment, she took the time to really understand my situation, and intricately explained each step of my rehab process. Dee’s expertise, patience, and encouragement helped me get back to doing the things I love. I can’t recommend Dee highly enough!”

    Casey

  • “ I have had back pain for over 20 years with massive spasms that floor me when they come on. In all my years of treatment I have never experienced anyone like Dee. She is the first person to identify that my back pain was related to another injury and for the first time I have actually experienced pain free days and able to walk longer and move more. I will not trust another person with my injuries ever! Thanks Dee!! If you ever leave Dunedin I’m coming with you!“

    Josephine

  • “ Dee is hands down the best physio in Dunedin. After struggling with a knee injury for over 12 months, and seeing two other physios around Dunedin, she has been the only one to actually understand what’s going on, give a range of hands on therapy techniques and advocate for me which has resulted in pain free everyday life since seeing her. Highly highly recommend for anyone seeking a physio for new or old injuries - honestly been a life changer!”

    Hannah

  • “ Dee provided phenomenal support during a very uncomfortable calf injury. Not only did she keep me informed as to how the injury was progressing and what the recovery process looked like, but she also made a point to ensure I was comfortable at every single appointment. Her professionalism with a dose of good humour, truly made for a 10/10 experience. Thank you Dee!”

    Allie

  • “ I had been to a lot of physios and osteopaths for a heap of niggly injuries. They all basically told me to continue my life through the pain. Ended up being so sore at the end of my working day from knee pain that I would be in tears trying to walk to my car. Dee made that pain disappear in 2 sessions. She is now treating the rest of the niggly injuries and working her magic, my body has never moved or felt better.

    Georgia

  • “ Dee is a really thoughtful and considered practitioner; she is imaginative about ways to help you recover as well as you can within the particular circumstances of your life - you are literally in good (skillful and strong) hands 🙌”

    Bronwyn

  • “ Dee has been amazing with my treatment so far. I went into it thinking it wouldn't help but was I wrong. The treatment I have received so far has been amazing and I look forward to every visit!!! Dee actually listens to you and wants to understand why you are there. Would definitely recommend if anyone was needing a physio ”

    Sarah Jane

  • I also really value her treating my body more holistically. She knows a lot of my injuries are stress related and talks me through other ways of management outside of just exercises to do. I’ve never felt more comfortable with a physio ever and I genuinely look forward to our sessions because they benefit me but are also a lot of fun.”

    Georgia

  • "Dee is such an amazing physio! Very efficient and effective. She discovered what my injuries were stemming from, that my past physios (yes plural) could never."
