About True Form Physio and Pilates is a new clinic located in Fitness Canterbury New Beginnings and represents a new beginning for the founders Vanessa and Justine. Since completing their degrees at Otago University in 2006, Vanessa and Justine have dreamed of creating their ideal environment for physiotherapy treatment. Combining their Physiotherapy and Pilates knowledge and working within one of Christchurch's best gyms allows them to deliver a high standard of care providing a full service from acute injury management through to sports specific rehab. Justine and Vanessa are trained clinical Pilates instructors providing small group Pilates classes and individual tuition in a purpose-built studio. They utilise spring boards and small equipment bringing more variety to your classical mat exercises. Justine Stratford Hi, my name is Justine Stratford. Since graduating from Otago in 2006 I have lived and worked as a physio in Christchurch and spent 2 years in the UK broadening my horizons. I came back after the Christchurch earthquakes, met my husband and we started a family. I have experience treating all kinds of musculoskeletal conditions including pre and postoperative management of orthopaedic injuries. I have 10 years experience working with rugby teams and particularly enjoy treating sport associated injuries. My clinical approach is a mixture of hands on treatment, exercise prescription and clinical Pilates. Vanessa Gibson Hi, my name is Vanessa Gibson and I am a Physiotherapist born and raised here in Christchurch. I completed my Physiotherapy degree at Otago University in 2006. Following my studies I returned to Christchurch to work in private practice, gaining experience in treating a wide range of injuries in both athletes and non-athletes alike. I am dedicated to helping my patients achieve their goals whether that is recovering from injury, injury prevention or just trying to improve their general health, strength and mobility.
