Meet Our Expert Physios

Millie graduated from the Auckland University of Technology with a Bachelor of Health Science (physiotherapy) in 2023. During her final year she spent eight-weeks on placement at Cairnhill and is now excited to be part of the team as a new graduate physiotherapist.

Millie’s pathway to becoming a physiotherapist stems from an active upbringing in Taranaki. Growing up she was involved in many sports, but competitive dancing took up most of her free time until the age of 18. This ultimately grew her interest in all thing’s health, fitness, and well being.

Millie has a real passion for helping others. She’s likes to use a hands-on approach combined with education and exercise prescription to help individuals meet their rehab goals and most importantly get back to the things they enjoy.

During her studies she spent a lot of time getting experience working with various sports teams in the community. Some highlights being volunteering with the University of Auckland Varsity senior rugby teams and the Auckland under 85kg rugby team.

Outside of work Millie enjoys keeping active, whether this been through attending the gym or getting outside for a run or walk with friends.

After 7 years of working as a swim coach, Keefe-jordan (KJ) wanted to seek out alternative avenues to assist other people in their wellbeing. Physio seemed like the perfect pathway, especially when growing up within a family heavily involved in the healthcare system.

In his pursuit of wanting to help his community, KJ graduated in Physiotherapy from Auckland University of Technology (AUT) in 2022. He continued to foster his strong passion for movement and fitness, completing his New Zealand certificate in exercise (Level 4) through the New Zealand Institute of Health and Fitness. As a physiotherapist, KJ utilizes a hands on approach in his practice. He primarily focuses on exercise based rehabilitation, educating his patients in order to exceed their goals.

KJ has had experience working within a variety of sporting communities, such as the Takapuna RFC U85s and assisting in the University of Auckland interfaculty tournaments. He is currently a physiotherapist with the Auckland University Rugby club and has also been named as the NZ Lacrosse Men’s U20 team, who will travel to the World Championships in South Korea in August 2025.

Outside of the workplace KJ enjoys working out at the gym, spending his time in the surf and seeking out the perfect coffee.
