About Us
We believe that being "healthy" is a combination of many factors and we hope that Insight Healthcare can help you discover what combination of factors work best for you.
Insight Healthcare has been a keystone in the North Shore region for over 25 years. Its name has changed over this time but its original founder still remains at the heart of the clinic.
Our Belief
While Osteopathy is amazing in so many ways, we also know that sometimes other factors need taking into account. At Insight Healthcare we work with you to optimise your body in every way - restoring movement, reducing pain, strengthening and conditioning, postural alignment at your desk and car, exercise ideas & diet advice etc. Often simple changes or additions to your daily life can have massive impacts in how you feel.

Vicki Cox
Vicki’s background in health and well-being has derived from an early interest in yoga movement and philosophy and ayurvedic therapy, which she studied while travelling in India in the 2008. After living in the UK and Europe for 15 years, she returned to the southern lands where she became interested in osteopathy and its holistic approach to individual well-being, having many similarities to the yogic view of health and healing.
She believes with the right encouragement and a mindful attitude, a person can optimize their quality of movement allowing for the enjoyment of pain-free adventures in life. She has experience in treating a broad variety of musculoskeletal conditions ranging from acute sports and recreational injury, to chronic and age related biomechanical changes.
Outside of the practice Vicki, her family and friends, make the most of the many activities that the great outdoors of Aotearoa has to offer, both coastal and in the snowy mountains.

Terry Lomas
Terry has been an Osteopath and Acupuncturist for over 30 years and was instrumental in developing the Osteopathy program in New Zealand during its inception. His extensive experience has given him a deep understanding of the body and its long-term needs.
Terry is particularly passionate about the importance of good posture, especially in children, whose frequent use of phones and tablets can lead to significant issues in adulthood. In our modern age of being constantly "plugged in," our bodies are facing the cumulative damage that years of poor posture can cause, leading to chronic pain and dysfunction.
With decades of experience, Terry has seen firsthand the effects of both treatment and the lack of it over time. There’s little he hasn’t treated throughout his career, so you can be confident that you’re in expert hands. He has likely encountered and successfully treated your condition countless times before, ensuring you receive the best care possible.
Dewi Thomas
Dewi holds a Master of Osteopathy and a diploma in yoga and practices mirimiri and romiromi, traditional Māori approaches to bodywork. Her approach also includes cranial osteopathy, a gentle technique particularly beneficial for treating babies.
Dewi integrates osteopathic science, yoga philosophy, movement, and breathwork in her treatment sessions, using a range of techniques—such as massage, stretching, adjustments, cupping, and cranial work—to support the body’s natural self-healing mechanisms.
Relationship-building is central to Dewi's osteopathic approach, ensuring that people feel safe in the therapeutic environment. This approach involves identifying elements in your life that may be harmful or unbalanced and working together to restore harmony in a way that works for you.
In her free time, Dewi enjoys training in Muay Thai, riding horses, walking her dog, and spending quality time with her whānau and son.
