Professional views and special interests
Marina is passionate about helping people of all ages fulfil their potential in the areas of life that are most meaningful to them and ensuring people are able to keep active.

Skills in manual therapy, injury prevention, exercise prescription are just a few of the foundational principles used in Marina’s practice.
Marina’s main area of interest is musculoskeletal physiotherapy, however she was able to learn valuable skills during time spent in the hospital setting working in rehab wards including stroke rehabilitation, intensive care and paediatrics. Marina is always looking to expand her knowledge and skillset with additional treatment modalities such as dry needling.

In her spare time Marina enjoys a good team game of basically anything outdoors, exploring new beaches along New Zealand’s coastline, taking photos, stand-up paddle boarding and specialty coffee.
