Nick Maher

Nick is a Wellington native with a unique journey into physiotherapy. After embarking on a successful yet unfulfilling career in marketing, he decided to pursue his true passion – helping people lead more active and healthy lives. 

This led him to complete a Bachelor of Health Science in Physiotherapy at Auckland University of Technology. 

Following university, Nick has worked in a busy private musculoskeletal clinic in Queenstown, where he treated a diverse range of clients, from weekend warriors to elite athletes.

He was also the Team Physiotherapist for the Sky City Stampede during their national championship-winning 2024 season and has experience supporting professional sporting events such as the New Zealand PGA Golf Open.

The transition from marketing to physiotherapy was a pivotal moment, as he found purpose and fulfilment in contributing to the well-being of others. His enthusiasm for physiotherapy stems from a genuine desire to empower individuals to remain active and enjoy a high quality of life.

Whether aiding recovery from injuries, promoting mobility, or enhancing overall physical well-being, he is committed to positively impacting the lives of those he works with.


Outside of work, he is an avid sports and outdoors enthusiast. From rugby to rowing and, more recently, involvement in multisport events, Nick thrives on the camaraderie and challenge sports offer.
