Physiotherapy Services in New Zealand - Industry Market Research Report

Rehabilitation: Recovering disposable incomes are projected to benefit revenue growth

Demand for physiotherapy services has remained generally robust in recent years despite COVID-19 related disruptions. Sports participation rates and associated sports injuries, including those treated under Accident Compensation Corporation (ACC) claims, fell in response to social distancing measures, subduing the need for physio services. New Zealand's ageing population has supported the need for industry services, as physiotherapists are often involved in treatment programs designed to reduce the risk of falls. Some physios may work with the elderly following a stroke or major surgery, or help those suffering from arthritis. Growing household disposable incomes have improved access to physiotherapy services as associated costs can be significant, especially for injuries requiring long-term treatment. Physiotherapy services revenue is expected to rise at an annualised 2.7% over the five years through 2023-24, to total an estimated $519.2 million.

Physiotherapy practices assess, diagnose and treat human movement disorders, and help to prevent these issues.
