Rehab Coach / Administrator

Melissa is The Rehab Team’s Rehab Coach and part time Office Administrator and is the glue that keeps The Rehab Team together and running smoothly. She is the friendly voice on the end of the phone assisting clients and is passionate about helping people on their rehabilitation journey.

Melissa experienced her own need for physiotherapy following a car accident when studying at university. She saw first hand the benefits of rehabilitation had on her recovery. It was this journey that led her to change career paths from working as an architect to retraining as a personal trainer.

She was born in South Africa and has spent the last 10 years living in Auckland where she set up, ran and managed her own personal training business.

Melissa, her husband and two daughters have recently made the move from Auckland down to Tauranga to be closer to family.
