Whilst studying for a Bachelor in Health Science (BHSc) majoring in Physiotherapy at AUT, Danny achieved distinction in his class and amongst his peers, being one of the first Graduates of 2010 to secure a job with the Auckland District Health Board (ADHB). Here he specialised in the fields of cardiorespiratory, orthopedics, pediatrics, and musculoskeletal areas.
Danny’s further studies allowed him to achieve a Postgraduate Certificate in Western Acupuncture and to become a Certified Mulligan Practitioner. However, searching for more challenges Danny then shifted his focus to private practice where he worked providing service to schools, urgent care medical centers, private clinics, and large retirement village organizations.
After many years working for other companies and organizations Danny decided to establish his own business to enable him to bring forward his experience and unique approach to rehabilitation. Opening in June 2019 Danny has seen On Point Physio Ltd. grow into a successful business working with a wide variety of patients.
In 2017, Harlan graduated from AUT with a Bachelor in Health Science (BHSc) in Physiotherapy. He started his first job in a fast-paced medical centre in East Tamaki. His clientele primarily presented with acute and chronic injuries, postpartum back pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, arthritis, and vertigo, etc.
In the meantime, he managed side-line physiotherapy for three other sports teams.
Having exposure to many recurrent injuries, Harlan decided to dive deeper into the rabbit hole. He became certified as a Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) practitioner, which is a skill that involves multi-dimensional assessment of patients’ bio-mechanics.
That allows him to identify the deeper cause of an ongoing dysfunction. For instance, treating an old C-section scar to relieve chronic back pain. Over the past three years in the medical centre, Harlan has incorporated dry needling, active release technique, manipulation, cupping, scraping, shockwave therapy and exercise-based rehabilitation into his approach.
