Flexa Clinic

This is the best spot on the North Shore if you have any kind of injury or recurring physical ailment. Murray Hing’s reputation precedes him; he’s really well-​known for his physiotherapy work and embraces all sorts of treatments here from massage to acupuncture — he does it all. I used to get a lot of tension headaches from a neck problem and he sorted it right out, such a relief to see someone with so much experience and knowledge that can get straight to the cause of a problem. He’s also quite selective with his staff so all the other physios there are really competent — now I only go for maintenance treatment and in my experience it really doesn’t matter too much who treats you but it is good to have some continuation. Flexa Clinic might mostly be known for its physiotherapy but it also has a lot of other services. There’s a podiatrist, nutritionists, massage therapists and midwives. They have a great ante and post-​natal service that helps with all the new stresses on your body when you’re pregnant. This compliments the midwifery branch of Flexa quite well. My midwife was one of the team of Hauraki Midwives, based in Flexa, and I found it really helpful to have everything here in one place. In the last couple of years the clinic has expanded to include Flexa Studio — a huge gym with great equipment, classes, and trainers, it’s the health and fitness branch of Flexa that totally completes it.

I have been to SO many physios in my lifetime. Being a dancer means your body will probably hate you and try to break as many times as possible. When I first came to Flexa I was expecting a lot as it had come with an amazing recommendation. I made an appointment to see Murray and I was impressed. Murray is an extremely charismatic man and because of this every appointment with him was rather amusing. He is also a fantastic physio and is in very high demand. A session with Murray costs more than a session with any other physio at Flexa but it is worth it. He really takes the time to focus on your injury or problem and figure out a way to fix it.
The other physios at Flexa are also very good. All of them know exactly what they’re talking about and make you feel very comfortable. If you’re like me and like your massages firm you may need to speak up about pressure at times but this is definitely the case with any physiotherapist.
I have also had experience with the podiatry department at Flexa Clinic and all I can say is that it went very well! Very long story… but in the end I got exactly what I needed from Justin and I feel like he really took every possible action to help me out.
