Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Lauren, I'm sure everyone at Zone 34 works their magic as well however Lauren has been such an amazing physio for me. Lauren is one of the first health professionals I've ever encountered that truly listens and asks. She listens, and has an informed curiosity that I feel is rare to come by, it's been so beneficial to my healthcare. I've been seeing Lauren for a knee injury and with her, every session i gain more mobility and less pain after 5 years of suffering pain post injury. Lauren is truly an expert and master at what she does and a true representation of what person centred care should look like, a health professional who really does listen. She's a remarkable physio that well and truly empowers you and your recovery journey :) Thanks heaps Lauren

Fantastic experience: My 2 girls have attended Physio at Zone 34 for all of their general ballet and injury management. As a physio myself, having such specialised and personalised supports that are tailored to each of the girls has been wonderful. They have each had different experiences perfectly aimed at their level and always had their goals to work towards. Thank you Nicole and the team at Zone 34!

Fantastic experience: I have visited Gloria 3 times and after only 3 weeks of simple targeted exercises and therapy, my constant hand arthritis pain has nearly disappeared! My fingers are stronger and almost pain free, and my rings fit again! I wish I'd done this years ago. Totally delighted with the result.

Hi Chris. Thanks for the positive review. With our team having special interests in Spine, Hand Therapy, Lower Limb injuries, tendinopathies, Ballet and elite Sports Physio, we feel it is important that clients get seen by experts relevant to each injury. This can include onward referral to Specialist Drs when appropriate. An accurate diagnosis and management plan is essential in injury rehabilitation.

Fantastic experience: Agree about the lovely staff. Went there with a recurring knee problem. It started to settle down soon after my first visit with Gloria. She explains everything clearly and considers your individual circumstances which really helps you stick to the tailored exercise program that she regularly adjusts. Great results - no pain, better balance and improved lower body strength.
