ReAktivation

Why should I do it? 

The aim of this programme is to assist and guide you with maximising the initial functional improvements you can make with your new brace. Research evidence has shown that those who participated in a specific rehabilitation programme following their brace fitting made significantly better improvements in function than those that did not.

What does the programme include?

• A comprehensive initial assessment and  6 weekly/fortnightly 1-hour sessions with the physiotherapist.

• Supplementary exercise programme to complete independently either at home or at a gym. 

• Both the physiotherapy sessions and your home programme will be tailored to your individual requirements and goals.

• The expectation is that you would be able to complete 3 training sessions per week (inclusive of your physiotherapy session).

• All equipment will be provided for use during the physiotherapy sessions, however, depending on your goals you may wish to purchase equipment for use with your home programme. 

Do I need a referral?

Yes. Access to this programme can only be obtained through Bigfoot Podiatry. .

How much does it cost?

The total cost of the initial rehabilitation programme is $1200 incl GST.

Will my programme be covered by ACC since it’s run by a Physiotherapist?

Some clients may be eligible for funded physiotherapy through ACC. However, this does not cover the full cost of the programme. There is a co-payment of  $725 incl GST for ACC clients.

Can I do more sessions on top of this package?

For those clients who have goals of returning to higher level function such as running, tramping or sport this will likely require further input. We would set an expectation of a minimum of 3-6 months of physiotherapy guided rehabilitation to prepare you for this. A further package of sessions can be discussed and implemented should you wish to take up this option. 

Where are you located?

All sessions will take place at Evexia Health & Performance. This is located at CrossFit North Harbour, 26 Ashfield Road, Wairau Valley, Auckland. There is free parking directly outside the building. Showers are available for use after your sessions.
