β β β β β After hitting 50 and having had an active work life in both the Army and Police, my knee started giving me problems. I went to Nth City Physio to get some help with preparing for another work fitness test. I didn't find the dry needle treatment so good for me, a couple of times my knee felt a bit inflamed for days after. I really did value though the advice I got and as a result:
-I have a range of exercises to help strengthen my knee,
-I bought a good knee brace,
-I now have a far better more sensible outlook on how to keep fit and look after myself for the next 50yrs, and
-I passed my work physical test.
Thanks Nth City Physio

β β β β β Genuinely very pleased with the treatment I have had from Abhi. I have been struggling with back pain for over a year and have been repeatedly just told it is general tightness, handed a box of tramadols and given a generic list of stretches (which I followed religiously), and shown the door. As someone who competes in fitness competitions regularly, this was not working out. However after seeing Abhi, and having him spend time to understand what the issues I have been experiencing are, what my training and lifestyle are like, and what my past injuries were, he was able to work with me and make recommendations that worked towards my goals of continuing to compete, but to also compete pain free. There is still work to be done but at least this time round I am super confident in the course of action.

β β β β β Abhi Has been fantastic, I came in a few months ago with a shoulder injury sustained in a competition I was in a large amount of pain with limited mobility. I had another competition in a months time that I had spent the previous 6 months training with a PT and Nutritionist for , Abhi came up with a treatment plan for me that included Dry Needling to get me back training again as soon as possible something I had never had before. A month later I completed the Firefighter Skytower challenge with a PB time of 13:10 and a 23rd placing this is an incredibly taxing event wearing 25kg of equipment climbing 51 floors breathing through breathing apparatus. Abhi made me realise the importance of regular visits for recovery, I have been on a long journey of weight loss losing 65KG and I came to realise I had been doing the training and nutrition right but not the recovery. I now regularly go and get dry needling done in my problem areas to keep me in tip top shape physically as I await my upcoming Career Firefighter recruits course as I need to be in peak condition going into it.

β β β β β I started going to North City Physio after a knee injury while running. This was my very first time having physio, so I was I little nervous as I wasn't sure what to expect, but Abhi has been wonderful. He is very friendly and approachable, which has put me at ease, and his knowledge and expertise has meant that my knee has been healing much faster than I had expected.
Would highly recommend, especially for first time physio patients like myself!

β β β β β I started seeing Abhi in February to help me with an injury I picked up from training. I found him to be very knowledgeable and attentive to what I wanted. It has been hard to find a physio that understands how important training and exercise (whether Crossfit, running, lifting weights) is to me.
He was able to take this and give me a workable rehab plan that meant I didn't just stop all my training, and one that has been working well at getting me back to 100%.

β β β β β I feel extremely privileged to be treated by Abhi. He is the first physio whose treatment doesn't feel transactional or a tick box for ACC.
I first saw Abhi late last year for a partial soleus tendon rupture which he treated with dry needling and gradual rehab exercises. Abhi also took the time to build my mental focus and attitude towards health and sporting goals. He is as tough and knowledgeable as they come.
I fully recommend Abhi. If you have health goals, go see him; don't wait until you're injured for your opportunity.

β β β β β I've been seeing Abhi for dry needling for the last 6 months now. I have been looking for someone who does dry needling here in Wellington for years but a lot of places that provide dry needling are so expensive here.
His treatments have made such a difference to my overall pain levels in both of my shoulders. I couldn't recommend him enough he is so gentle and you can hardly feel it - unless he gets a really good trigger point which will mean you'll feel so much better the next day.
Abhi is such a great guy and we have some really good chats too. 5 stars to you Abhi :)

β β β β β I recently saw Abhi at North City Physio about about my back that I injured in the course of my work as trades person. Over the last 35 years I had injured it many times lifting heavy items but had always been reluctant to seek treatment, instead opting to take painkillers and hope it would sort itself out. This time the pain didn't go away, in fact 35 years of masking the problem with pills rather than treating the problem had caught up with me. By not listening to the pain warnings and carrying on, I had made the damage worse.
I was persuaded to book an appointment with Abhi. Not only was he professional, personable and knowledgeable but he was also sympathetic that my back problem was caused by my work but changing jobs was not as option. He was able to suggest some changes in lifestyle, some exercises and a treatment called Dry Needling.
I was a little sceptical at first about the Needling but having had a remarkable improvement in my condition I am totally sold on it, and it was totally painless. I have not needed any painkillers since my very first appointment with Abhi.
In hindsight, I regret not seeing a Physio many years ago when my back problems started. If I had treatment back then I would not have had to suffer so much pain over the years, taken so many pills or have so much time off work. My back is one of the tools of my trade and I have finally discovered it needs servicing like so many of my work tools.
I totally recommend Abhi at North City Physio and Dry Needling, but I also recommend seeing a Physio in the early stages of back pain so you can fix the problem before it gets worse. Pills will mask the pain but won't fix the problem.
Thanks North City Physio.
