Waiouru physio's busy
With over 15 years of experience in New Zealand and overseas, Janet Wilkinson and Lynne Moore can offer up-to-date treatment strategies and rehabi litation programmes at their Waiouru Physiotherapy Clinic.
With referrals from Taihape to Raetihi for school-children, soldiers, and the elderly, their work is varied. However, sports and work-related injuries tend to be dominate, with the result that the Accident Compensation Corporation tends to play an important part in covering costs associated with treatment. By way of advice, Mrs Moore would "encourage people to present with their injuries earlier" as treatment is generally then more successful. Most soldiers need to regain 90-100 per cent fitness to be able to meet the demands of their work situation, and this process takes longer with old injuries.
While traditional methods of physiotherapy are typically used during treatment and rehabilitation programmes, both Ms Wilkinson and Mrs Moore are qualified acupuncturists, and can carry out manipulations.
