Rhiannon Webby

Rhiannon graduated with a Bachelor of Health Science (Physiotherapy) from
Auckland University of Technology in 2014. She began her career working as a
rotational Physiotherapist at Waikato Hospital, the largest hospital campus in the
Southern Hemisphere. During her two years in this position, Rhiannon gained
experience over a wide range of fields, including but not limited to respiratory and
cardiac care, orthopaedics, older persons and rehabilitation, paediatrics, general and
specialist surgery, and burns.

Pursuing her passion for musculoskeletal therapy, Rhiannon went on to spend the
following two and a half years specializing in the outpatient musculoskeletal
department at Waikato Hospital. Within this role she became well practiced in the
management of chronic and rheumatic pain conditions. She worked closely with a
team of Pain Specialists, and co-lead a chronic pain education and management
program with an Occupational Therapist. Rhiannon also gained exposure to a heavy
caseload of post-surgical patients, ranging from orthopaedic hip, knee and shoulder
replacements, to oncology-related mastectomies and neck dissections.

Other areas of interest for Rhiannon include back and neck pain, shoulder problems,
and tendon issues. She values a holistic approach to treatment, encompassing a
range of hands on therapy, exercise prescription, and education to empower optimal
long-term management. Continual professional development is very important to
Rhiannon. She strives to keep up to date with the latest evidence within the
physiotherapy scope, and completes regular ongoing formal training. She has a
Post-graduate Certificate in Western Acupuncture, which also qualifies her to
perform dry needling, and has completed a range of courses relating to chronic pain
management, back pain, Kinesio taping, exercise prescription, and both mat and
reformer Pilates. She is currently undergoing training to become a qualified yoga
teacher, and a Neurolinguistic Programming practitioner.
