James is a Physiotherapist with a strong focus on exercise rehabilitation and return-to-sport performance, combining clinical physiotherapy with his background as a qualified personal trainer. He is currently completing further postgraduate studies in Musculoskeletal Physiotherapy at AUT, strengthening his clinical knowledge in injury management, rehabilitation, and performance-based recovery.
James is highly passionate about using exercise as medicine, with a strong belief that structured, progressive loading is key to both recovery and long-term physical health. He specialises in gym-based rehabilitation and enjoys helping patients rebuild strength, confidence, and capacity following injury. He also utilises return-to-sport testing and technology-based assessment tools to objectively measure progress and support safe return to activity and sport. James is trained in dry needling, which he incorporates where appropriate to assist with pain management and muscle recovery. His clinical approach is practical, performance-focused, and strongly outcomes driven, with a focus on getting people back to doing what they love in a stronger and more resilient way.
Outside of work, James enjoys football, gaming, and spending time with friends, family, and his dog.
