Physiotherapy Services in Christchurch

Whether you're dealing with a new injury, managing something longer-term, or working toward a performance goal — we have a service designed for where you are right now.

From assessment to performance

You First Physio offers a broad range of physiotherapy and specialist services across five Christchurch clinics. Our services span the full journey — from acute injury assessment and hands-on treatment, through rehabilitation and specialist programmes, to clinical Pilates and longer-term performance and wellness goals

Whatever brings you through the door, the approach is the same: we start by listening to you, understanding what you want to get back to, and building a plan around that. Your goals guide the care — not the other way round.

How to Book

Many of our services are available to book online. Some require an initial assessment or ACC referral first — these are booked through reception.

Each service page explains the booking process clearly. If you are unsure which service is right for you, call your nearest clinic and we will help point you in the right direction.

 Not sure where to start?

If you are not sure which service is the right fit, a general physiotherapy assessment is always a good starting point. Your physiotherapist can assess what is going on, advise on the best pathway, and refer you to a specialist service within our team if needed.
