At Evolve Physiotherapy, we take the guesswork out of recovery. If you have an injury or chronic musculoskeletal pain, you will know how baffling it can be trying to find the right treatment and get a lasting result. Often people try a bit of this and a bit of that and end up feeling like it is hopeless. It is not.
Our team provides evidence-informed treatment processes backed by the latest research and technology, with a focus on measurable results. This means that if you follow your prescribed treatment plan, you will get results that are limited only by your commitment to the process.
We provide a comprehensive range of physiotherapy services for people in Howick and across East Auckland, from sports physiotherapy in Auckland and ACC physio through to chronic condition management, functional assessment and rehabilitation. Whatever you are dealing with, we will give you a clear plan and the support to follow it.
We believe that effective physiotherapy should be structured, progressive and measurable. Our approach follows three clear steps:
Get fast relief and start moving again
correct the way your body moves and address the underlying causes
Reach your health and performance goals with a programme built around you
Evolve Physiotherapy has its roots in the local community. The clinic was originally founded as Total Rehab Physiotherapy in 2008 by Mark Plumber, operating alongside a local gym on Chapel Road. After changing hands, the clinic moved to Botany Road in 2010 under the management of Rachelle Tapara.
In 2011 the business was purchased by its current owners, Bryce and Rachel Milsom. Under their leadership the clinic grew significantly, prompting a move to a larger, purpose-built space on Botany Road. The new premises were designed specifically for physiotherapy, incorporating three treatment rooms, a functional assessment room and a small rehabilitation studio. This move also enabled a deliberate shift toward evidence-informed practice, functional assessment and structured rehabilitation, which has meaningfully improved outcomes for patients.
In 2021 the clinic was rebranded as Evolve Physiotherapy and Health, reflecting the ongoing evolution of the services offered and the changing landscape of physiotherapy as science and research continue to provide better solutions for patients. Despite the challenges of the pandemic period, the clinic emerged stronger, supported by its local community and GP network. More recently, Evolve has begun working with local businesses to support injury prevention for their staff.
Today, Evolve Physiotherapy continues to invest in cutting-edge technology and the most recent clinical research to ensure our team can provide the best possible outcomes for every patient we see.
