MIA DAY
Mia grew up in Christchurch before moving to Dunedin to complete her Bachelor of Physiotherapy at Otago University. This involved her final year of placement being completed in Hawkes Bay where she went on to graduate in 2022. Mia has a passion for helping patients achieve their goals, whether that includes returning to work, to the field, or being able to achieve activities in day-to-day life.
While at university, Mia spent time working alongside various Rugby teams, both in Otago and the Hawkes Bay region which included treating sports injuries on the field and in the clinic. She also developed an interest for musculoskeletal physiotherapy using a combination of manual and exercise-based techniques.
This year Mia is looking forward to getting involved with the Hautapu Rugby club and working with their under 21’s team to provide support on and off the field.
Mia is a fun and friendly person who enjoys getting to know people, hitting the gym and going for walks. Mia is new to the Waikato area and is looking forward to joining the team at Vigour Physiotherapy.
JESSICA TOTMAN
I’m Jess! I was born and raised in Cambridge and graduated from Waikato Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (Hons) in 2022.
I am an energetic, empathetic physiotherapist with a passion for applying both manual therapy and exercise-based rehabilitation principles to achieve positive outcomes for my patients and help them achieve their goals.
I am particularly interested in physiotherapy within a sporting space and since graduating have been the physiotherapist for Southern United Senior Rugby teams and have also been involved with the Waikato U18 Women’s rugby team.
