Built on a simple idea.
That good physiotherapy doesn't just relieve pain - it helps people understand their bodies and get back to what they love.
Our Story
Performance Physio was founded by Sharon Kearney and Kevin Dysart - two physiotherapists who shared a vision for what a great physio clinic should be: clinically excellent, deeply patient-centred, and accessible to everyone.
Sharon and Kevin are still actively treating patients today. The practice they built together now includes ten clinicians working across Christchurch and Akaroa, serving everyone from Olympic athletes and national sports teams to community members managing chronic conditions and older adults in residential care.
The connections to elite sport are real and ongoing - Sharon is Lead High Performance Physiotherapist for Netball New Zealand, and Ben Ardagh serves as Lead Physiotherapist for Hockey New Zealand. But that expertise flows into every appointment, for every patient.

Our Philosophy
We treat the cause, not just the symptom.
Every assessment looks beyond where it hurts to understand why it hurts - and what will stop it coming back.
Care for every stage of life.
From elite junior athletes to rest home residents, our team is built to support every patient with the right expertise.
Two locations, one standard of care.
Whether you are in Christchurch or on the Banks Peninsula, you get the same high standard of clinical care from the same trusted team.
