Our Story

It wasn’t just clinical experience that brought Annami and Marijke together—it was their shared values.

They believe in:

• Empowerment through education – giving clients the tools and knowledge to take charge of their own recovery.

• Movement as medicine – using movement, strength, and mobility to create long-term change.

• Treating the person, not just the pain – with holistic, hands-on care tailored to each individual.

As athletes themselves—Annami in hockey (having represented NZ Masters) and Marijke in sports like CrossFit, gymnastics, and triathlon—they know firsthand the importance of staying active, strong, and pain-free. That insight shapes the way they treat, blending professional expertise with a deep, personal understanding of the body in motion.

After relocating to New Zealand, the two reconnected through their shared professional network and saw the opportunity to build something meaningful. That vision became ERA Physio—a space where people feel heard, supported, and genuinely cared for.

Today, ERA Physio isn’t just a clinic—it’s a community. It’s a place where recovery meets performance, and where people from all walks of life come to move better, live stronger, and feel like themselves again.
