👋 Ella is dedicated to helping people feel supported and confident throughout their recovery. She views physiotherapy as more than rehabilitation, it’s about empowering people with the knowledge and habits needed for long-term health. Her friendly, collaborative approach is tailored to your lifestyle, creating a realistic plan that keeps you connected to the activities that matter most and celebrating the small wins along the way.

Ella recently graduated from the University of Otago after completing her four-year physiotherapy degree. Throughout her time in Dunedin, she worked as a sports medic with local rugby teams, strengthening her passion for sports physiotherapy and her commitment to ongoing professional development in sporting environments.

Growing up, Ella played a variety of sports, with netball, basketball, and touch rugby among her favourites. She represented New Zealand in touch rugby in a Trans-Tasman series against Australia. In her spare time, Ella enjoys training at the gym, heading outdoors for a run, or throwing a ball around. She balances her active lifestyle with a love of good food—whether that means cooking at home or dining out with family and friends.

Piki Te Ora, a treasured pounamu (jade) from Papatūānuku (Mother Earth), embodies the Māori concept of hauora, or holistic well-being. Named "Ascend To Wellness," she signifies the body's natural ability to heal and 
grow stronger.

Her resemblance to a healed bone powerfully symbolises resilience and reminds us of our inner healing strength, encouraging proactive self-care and prevention. She highlights the vital connection between mind, body, 
and spirit, guiding us toward a harmonious state for confident movement and freedom.

Piki Te Ora is part of a trio of pounamu gifted to Live Free, including Piki Te Kaha ("Ascend To Strength") and Piki Te Māramatanga ("Ascend To Knowledge"). Live Free uses these pounamu to help individuals find tau (balance) on their hauora journey.
