Bachelor of Physiotherapy & Postgraduate Diploma in Rehabilitation

Josh is a qualified physiotherapist who completed his Bachelor of Physiotherapy at the University of Otago in 2020, followed by a Postgraduate Diploma in Rehabilitation in 2022. With over three years of experience in both private musculoskeletal and community physiotherapy settings, Josh has developed a comprehensive skill set that allows him to effectively address the needs of a wide range of patients.

Throughout his career, Josh has worked with individuals from various backgrounds, including members of the New Zealand Army and Police, tradespeople, and athletes at different levels of competition. This diverse experience has enriched his understanding of the unique challenges faced by each person, enabling him to tailor his treatment approaches accordingly. He has a particular interest in shoulder and lower back injuries, which are common yet complex issues that can significantly impact quality of life and performance. Josh believes in a holistic approach to rehabilitation, emphasizing the importance of integrating recovery strategies into training regimens. He is committed to not only helping his patients recover from injuries but also equipping them with the tools to prevent future issues.

By fostering a proactive mindset, he empowers his patients to take control of their health and well-being. Outside of his professional pursuits, Josh is an avid traveler having recently moved from New Zealand to London after backpacking through South America and the Balkans for four months.

When he’s not working, Josh enjoys staying active through touch rugby and indoor netball, and he can often be found under a barbell at the gym. With his passion for physiotherapy, and commitment to patient care, Josh is excited to continue making a positive impact in the field and supporting his patients on their journey to recovery and live their best life.
