The Merivale Physiotherapy Clinic has been an established practice in Christchurch at the Merivale Clinic for over 15 years under the direction of Jan Smith.
Jan entered private practice in 1981 in Wainoni and moved to Merivale in 1991 before moving into the purposely renovated villa in the Merivale village two years later.
The St Albans Physiotherapy Clinic was established in October 1999, and in July 2000, our satellite branch at St Albans became firmly established as the preferred physiotherapy provider for St Albans Medical Centre clients.
Both of our clinic's are part of the "ACC Endorsed Provider Network". Following the introduction of an updated ACC contract, there is a co-payment of $20 for your Initial 40min consultation and $15 for any follow-up appointments. If you have any questions about this, please call us on 03 3559 775 anytime.
We have aimed to keep our fees affordable to everyone and will whenever possible help low income claimants apply to WINZ for the shortfall. Please inform us of this request before your Initial treatment.
Our Physiotherapy Society is working closely with ACC to ensure injury treatment remains affordable to every New Zealander. See www.acc.co.nz/news
The Merivale Physiotherapy Clinic have a highly qualified team of physiotherapists who work between the two clinic’s to provide a full range of services including manual therapy, acupuncture, pre and post surgical rehabilitation, biomechanical analysis, exercise prescription as well as electrotherapy.

All private accounts are issued from our head office at the Merivale Clinic.
