Ultimate Physio - Auckland
Ultimate Physio began as a private practice back in November of 1997 in the garage of Minta Botha. Having immigrated from South Africa that year, Minta had secured a part time role at a clinic in Penrose, but had turned her garage into a “temporary” consulting room.
She recalls these fun times, “dismantling” the practice each night to get their cars into the garage. It did not take long for word to get out of this delightful physiotherapist who was nestled in the suburbs, who developed wonderful relationships with her patients and had enjoyed great results with their rehabilitation.
By 2006 the practice had grown and now had room for another therapist to work evenings this resulted in Stella Wilson joining the practice. The garage was permanently converted into two consulting rooms with a reception and waiting area.
In April of 2008 the practice could no longer accommodate their growing number of clients in the “home practice”. An additional physiotherapist was employed and the practice moved into its current purpose built facility in Botany.

Product and Services
Knee pain can be treated with various techniques, from fractioning the ligaments and releasing trigger points, using ultrasound to reduce swelling and inflammation, and strapping or kinesiotaping to support the knee, as well as acupuncture. Exercises for the knee are always important as your kneecap position and how it moves relies very strongly on the inner thigh muscles being equally as strong as the outer thigh muscles.
Most knee injuries also respond very well to a structured exercycle regime – cycling helps to keep the knee gently moving, strengthens the muscles, and helps to lubricate the joint and create a healing environment in the joint by increasing the production of synovial (joint) fluid.
Knee pain can also sometimes be linked to faulty foot biomechanics. An assessment of your feet using our advanced GaitScan pressure plate system will help us determine whether you may benefit from orthotics (shoe insoles).
