Response to Covid-19

As you will be aware there have been confirmed cases of novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, in New Zealand. COVID-19 is a new illness that can affect your lungs and airways.

The Government has introduced four ‘alert levels’ in the fight against COVID-19. As at 23 March 2020, New Zealand is currently at alert level three. This means that all non-essential services now have to close. For this reason, and in-line with the advice from the Physiotherapy Board of New Zealand, Kennedy Road Physiotherapy will be closed until further notice.

We will endeavor to contact our patients who had existing appointments to advise of this closure. Please understand that we are working through unprecedented uncertainty, and won’t be able to reschedule your appointments just yet. We are considering options for providing treatment and advice over the phone or via video call.

Please take care of yourselves and you family, and respect the measures put in place by the Government as we restrict the spread of COVID-19. We look forward to providing our usual services as soon as possible.
