Why

At Motus Health, we believe movement is medicine and that every New Zealander deserves to live a full, active life. Across Canterbury and the South Island, our network of expert clinicians delivers personalised, evidence-based care designed to get you moving, and keep you moving.

Local Clinics. World-Class Care.

What started as a single physiotherapy clinic in Christchurch has grown into a dynamic network of specialised providers. From injury recovery to peak performance, we offer a complete range of integrated health care services, including:

  • Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation
  • Podiatry & Hand Therapy
  • Concussion & Pain Management
  • Occupational & Workplace Health
  • Pelvic Health & Training for Independence
  • Sports Medicine, Nutrition & Mental Skills Coaching

Whether you’re returning from surgery, training for sport, or managing long-term pain, our team is here to support your journey, every step of the way.

Motus joins NZ Health Group
In 2025, Motus proudly joined the NZ Health Group (NZHG) whānau — Aotearoa’s largest provider of home, community, and health support services. This partnership strengthens our ability to grow and support more people across New Zealand, while protecting everything that makes Motus unique — our people, our local connections, and our belief that exercise is medicine.

NZHG is majority New Zealand-owned and shares our values of care, integrity, and community. With their backing, Motus continues to operate under its own trusted brand, with the same teams, clinics, and leadership — now supported by greater resources, opportunities, and reach to make a bigger difference in the lives of New Zealanders.

Motus Health. Live active.

Community

Being community focused is one of the core values of Motus Health. We are particularly keen to support community groups and organisations that align with our philosophy of living active.

Motus Health support within the communities is always tailored to the local community needs where our clinics are located, alongside regional initiatives with larger sporting organisations.

Support comes in different forms, ranging from sponsorship funding, discounted clinical service arrangements, educational presentations, group service initiatives and charity support.
