World-class care: Muscle People
Christchurch has fast become a hub of community, positivity, and good health. Radiating those values and nestled within some of the city’s most giving spaces, is a physiotherapy clinic reshaping what it means to offer world-class care.
When you step inside the Muscle People clinic, you expect state-of-the-art service – because that is what this space surrounds you with. For just under two years, the modern Cashel Street clinic has found its home within the Papa Hou building, complete with a gym and easy access to the Botanic Gardens just metres away for rehabilitation exercises. When you’re vulnerable and seeking help with an injury, this welcoming, comforting clinic reflects the confidence you need.
The transfer from their old city clinic was an act of innovation, a step in the direction this team consistently moves – forwards. “It allowed us to have space to bring in new, technologically-advanced equipment,” says city clinical lead Clare Brandrick. Physiotherapy is advancing in leaps and bounds, and Muscle People is committed to maintaining world-class care. Its signature patient-centric approach is what keeps the team ahead of the curve. “We listen. We make sure the client feels heard,” says business manager Nicholas Moore. By understanding the client’s expectations in treatment and recovery, this team curates a treatment pathway that meets, and hopefully exceeds, those goals. “That’s an area that Muscle People excel at. We tailor programmes to what the individual needs,” Clare adds.
Whatever your injury and end goal, trust this team to guide you every step of the way.

- Arrive at your consultation, with free parking at each clinic. Fill out some easy paperwork to give the team an idea of the injury and how they can get you back to doing what you love.
- A physiotherapist will assess your injury before gathering a diagnosis, talking you through each step. “We ensure the client has a really good understanding of what they have done, how it happened, and what needs to change to fit in with their goals,” Clare says. A treatment plan is introduced to navigate pain and swelling – progressing through to the strengthening stage. Before you know it, you will be back to sport, the garden, the kitchen, outside with the grandchildren – however physical activity looks for you.
