Hi, I'm Hazel, an Accredited Exercise Physiologist and Movement Specialist.  I help you to get better. If you want to recover from injury/ illness or pain, I can help. If you want to get fit and strong, I can help. If you want to achieve your goals, I can help. I use a variety of exercises and movements, modern pain science, myofascial release and behaviour design to help you make meaningful progress. I have navigated my own recovery from meningococcal septicaemia, where I nearly lost limbs and suffered severe pain. I’ve also overcome nasty back, shoulder and ankle injuries. I have real world experience of what it takes to recover and heal.


I have a degree in Exercise and Sports Science and I am an Accredited Exercise Physiologist. I have qualifications in Restorative Exercise and I am a Board Certified practitioner of Anatomy Trains Structural Integration (Myofascial Release). I am also a Certified Heroic Coach and Oxygen Advantage Functional Breathing Instructor.

I work with you to help you RECOVER from injury/ illness, RESTORE your strength, mobility, and energy and EXPAND your movement potential and performance.

I combine my skills to give you the help you need.

My practice is in Christchurch, New Zealand and Telehealth is available for anyone outside of Christchurch.
