Our Story
The Physio Academy Journey
Physio Academy was created by Dr Angela Cadogan to provide an integrated professional development hub for physiotherapists of all levels who are committed to improving their knowledge, skills and professional behaviours to reach the highest standards of clinical and professional practice. Angela has built a team of local and international instructors who are passionate about helping others learn and develop their clinical skills. Physio Academy (previously Southern Musculoskeletal Seminars) is your academy and we hope you'll be part of this journey with us.
Angela is a registered Specialist Physiotherapist (Musculoskeletal) with the Physiotherapy Board of New Zealand. She is a consultant clinician, educator and researcher with a PhD in Musculoskeletal Diagnostics.

Integrating the 7 Competencies
We recognise that there is much more to being a competent health professional than just clinical skills. At Physio Academy we provide a range of learning resources that cover all 7 key competency areas including important aspects of professional and ethical practice, communication, collaboration and leadership. All of our courses count towards your mandatory CPD hours in New Zealand.
Our online learning resources and courses cover biomedical and psychosocial sciences, professionalism, ethical practice, communication, clinical reasoning, practical assessment and treatment skills and evidence-informed multidisciplinary management of musculoskeletal and other conditions.
