DIRECTOR/OSTEOPATH
HELEN WRIGHT BSc(Hons)Ost(UK);PGDip(HlthErg)UK
My journey in osteopathy started in London and brought me to Auckland in 2001 and Pukekohe in 2004 when I established Osteopathy Pukekohe.
My treatment approach is very varied and each treatment is tailored to suit the individual (from the very young to the very old). In the 25+ years working as an osteopath the human body still never ceases to amaze me. How it adapts and compensates for the stresses and strains placed upon it in every day life is incredible. My tailored approach may range from a more gentle cranial treatment to a more physical treatment including joint manipulation.
When I'm not practising osteopathy you might still see me in clinic as I'm also the clinic manager.
When I'm not in clinic you'll find me on a bike, in the bush, in the water, at the movies or simply chilling out with a good book,

JANE McCULLOCH
BAPPSc (Human Biology); MOst (NZ)
ACC/NZ Registered Osteopath
I graduated from UNITEC with a degree in Health Sciences and Masters in
Osteopathy.
My passion for osteopathy lies with looking at the bigger picture of health; day to
day we experience many different stressors in our individual environments that
can impact on our physical wellbeing. This has led to extensive and ongoing
study in the areas of osteopathy in the cranial field and visceral manipulation. I
believe these gentle treatment approaches can be combined with manipulation
and articulation of the spine, muscles and limbs to achieve great results for
patients. I provide an individualised treatment for each patient, looking at what
could be causing symptoms, not just the symptoms themselves.
I love exploring new places to eat, taking pottery classes and being amongst nature to ground myself in this busy world.

NESA AREFIAN
ACC/NZ Registered Osteopath
Nesa, originally from Iran, has been in New Zealand since 2011. Nesa was previously a successful dentist for 8 years and along with her new life in NZ came a change of career. Nesa's passion for osteopathy goes back to her dentistry profession as she often had patients complaining of teeth/jaw symptoms without any major dental issue(s). Nesa was wondering if those pains and symptoms could originate from other areas. This encouraged her to do more research on Osteopathy as an approach that believes that the body functions as a "whole" and not as isolated departments. Her first intention in studying Osteopathy was to focus on TMJ (jaw) pain and toothache, but now she truly believes in the whole philosophy that “the body functions as a holistic unit”. Nesa has also undertaken additional training in lymphatic drainage techniques and is passionate about helping her patients and providing different treatment plans dependent on patients’ conditions.
Nesa lives with her son and her adorable and naughty German Shepherd called Sina.

PHOEBE BROWN
ACC/NZ Registered Osteopath
I graduated with a Postgraduate Diploma in Osteopathy at ARA Institute of Canterbury.
As a Clevedon based competitive horse rider I am open to providing treatment to the local equestrian community with insider knowledge of the aches and pains that often go hand-in-hand with the sport. I don't only treat equestrians but patients of ages and from all backgrounds. My osteopathic approach uses manipulative and non-manipulative techniques.
