The benefit of this DR (Digital Radiography) unit is that x-rays are visible immediately after the image is taken, allowing greater precision and increased efficiency. WHY CHOOSE US? We are the only x-ray service on the west side of Hamilton. Our friendly, professional staff and welcoming atmosphere will ensure your patients get the best service possible. We provide a walk-in x-ray service at two medimaging branches - Avalon and Hamilton East. Our new technology enables us to “stitch” images and provide quality full length spine or leg x-rays for orthopaedic specialists, enabling accurate assessment and measurements. We pride ourselves on being the only private x-ray in the area to offer this service.

They can limit livelihoods, interrupt dreams and cast a sense of uncertainty over the future. Without treatment, these conditions can become worse and even seem to dominate life. But they don’t have to. As physios, we’re in the business of helping people get back to work, to independence and to the lifestyles they enjoy. We’ve been doing that for over a decade and worked with everyone from top local sports teams like the 2013 Secondary Schools 1st XV National Champions, Hamilton Boys’ High School to the amateur triathlete, golfer and tennis player. Helping these folks get back to their best has been rewarding. But we’ve loved doing the same for the quiet gardener, the teen with an upcoming tournament, and the dad whose family depends on him. In a nutshell, it’s what we love to do and are always trying to get better at. At the end of the day, if we can alleviate not just aches and pains but also limits and uncertainty we’re happy. WHAT’S NEW We were so excited to move into the brand-new Avalon Health Medical Centre in December 2014. With doctors, a gym and other services just down the hall we know that our patients have access to the best care all around. Our brand-new premises are modern, easily accessible and welcoming. We think that they offer an inviting and optimum space for us to help people get back on their feet. We’ve actually been accredited with ACC under the Allied Health Standards for several years. As of May 2014, a rigorous audit by an independent agency found that our practice had again met the high standards of quality which are required to achieve this distinction. With more plans in the works to improve our service, we know that we can do even better. WE PROVIDE TREATMENT FOR THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS: Strains & Sprains Sports injuries Joint stiffness / pain Muscle injuries/ imbalances Post surgical rehabilitation Work related injuries/ OOS Spinal pain and headaches Nerve related pain Postural correction Work Place injuries Pre & post operative care Back & neck conditions CONTACT US: 6E/F Avalon Drive, Nawton, Hamilton Ph: 07 846 1599 www.nexusphysiotherapy.co.nz LOGO ANYTIME FITNESS AVALON Over 2 million members choose Anytime Fitness.
