Osteopathy

​Osteopathy is a form of hands-on manual therapy suitable for all ages and body types that works with your body's natural healing abilities to promote health and reduce discomforts.
​Osteopaths in New Zealand are primary healthcare practitioners, meaning we have a broad medical background. We can also open and work with ACC claims.

Doula Services

Doulas provide physical and emotional support around birth, and support the parent's choices in a nurturing and judgment free way. Unlike midwives, doulas are not medically trained so do not perform medical tasks.
I am not currently taking any more bookings for 2024/25

About me

My journey to osteopathy began with curiosity when receiving osteo treatment in my teens after coming off a horse. I went on to study in Auckland, earning a Bachelor of Applied Science (Human Biology) and a Master’s in Osteopathy from Unitec in 2017. Since then, my passion for osteopathy has only deepened. I continued my education through mentorships and post-grad certificates in Infant, Young Child, and Adolescent Health. I have also clocked many weekends of CPD in Cranial Osteopathy, and visceral (organ) manipulation. 

I love working with women and new babies through these pivotal chapters of life. I am specifically interested in women's pelvic health and infant latching and feeding, because I see what a difference working to relieve these issues makes in people's daily lives. I also completed training as a birth and postpartum doula in 2020 - a role I value deeply for the trust and insight it provides, though I am not taking on doula clients a the moment. 
​I am currently working on gaining certification in women's pelvic health with the Institute for Birth Healing, and Sands Training NZ.
