Central Lakes Physiotherapy and Pilates

02/08/2026

Please join us in welcoming Elaine Tseng to the Central Lakes Physio team!

Elaine is a physiotherapist with a special interest in musculoskeletal injuries and women's health, using manual therapy, personalised exercise and dry needling to help clients move better and get back to what they love.

As a mum of two boys herself, Elaine has a genuine interest in supporting women through the physical changes of pregnancy and postpartum, alongside her general MSK work.

When she's not in the clinic, you'll likely find her snowboarding, hiking, doing CrossFit or out on a paddle board, so she understands firsthand how important it is to stay active.

Elaine starts with us on Monday 10 August, book in with her here: https://bookingsnz.gensolve.com/central_lakes/clinician/details/elaine_tseng

What an incredible afternoon of learning with Kirsten from , exploring the power and possibilities of 2D and 3D pelvic floor ultrasound.

How lucky are we to have someone with Kirsten’s expertise right here in Wānaka! 💜

Kirsten took us through what this type of imaging can show and how it can help us better understand what is happening for women. From seeing prolapse in real time, to identifying pelvic floor changes and injuries, and helping build a clearer picture when symptoms and clinical findings don’t always tell the whole story.

The ability to work together with this information has huge potential to support better diagnosis, more informed treatment decisions, and ultimately better outcomes for our patients. It also means many women may no longer need to travel out of town for these investigations, which is such a valuable resource for our local community.

The training was exceptional, and we are incredibly grateful to Kirsten for sharing her knowledge, experience, and passion with us.

Collaboration between local experts is what helps us continue to provide the best possible care for the women in our region. Thank you Kirsten! 💜

Happy 5th Birthday to Precious Beginnings! 🎉💛

It was such a pleasure to be back speaking with this wonderful group of new and second-time mums today.

For the past five years, I've had the privilege of visiting each term, supporting local mums through honest conversations about pelvic health and recovery after birth. I love being part of preventative care in our community, helping women understand the difference between what's common and what's normal, and what they don't have to just put up with.

We cover the topics no one else seems to talk about... and with us, nothing is off limits to discuss.

A huge congratulations to Alex and Cat for creating such a welcoming space where parents can connect, learn and feel supported during those precious early months with their babies. 💕

Here's to another five years of supporting Wānaka families together!

We were teaching Pilates in Wānaka long before it was trendy, back when most people had never even seen a Reformer!

For 20 years, Central Lakes Physio has offered a different kind of Pilates experience. No crowded rooms and no one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, you’ll find a fully equipped classical Pilates studio, small classes and experienced physiotherapists and Pilates instructors who truly understand movement, injury and rehabilitation.

Many of our clients begin Pilates while recovering from an injury. Others, particularly those in our 50+ community, come to build the strength, mobility and balance they need to stay active and keep doing the things they love.

Every class includes individual attention and expert guidance, helping you move safely, effectively and with confidence. You do not need to be flexible or experienced. We meet you where you are and help you progress from there.

Whether you are rebuilding after an injury or investing in your long-term strength, we have the experience, equipment and supportive environment to help you move well for life.

Explore our classes and book online - come and give it a try!
