AP Therapists

AP Therapists AP Physiotherapists are now operating in Sun Valley and Somerset West! We provide all physio services

Introduction to AP Therapists:

Adéle Pudney completed a B.Sc. Physiotherapy degree in 2003 at UCT, after a long career in gymnastics and performing arts, during which time she sustained various injuries which helped her to understand the woes of the injured body. This led to her keen interest in posture correction, balance training and rehabilitation. Adéle found a passion for facilitating people to find ways out of their painful postures and patterns. After 13 years of learning through clinical experience she is building up and training a team of registered physiotherapists to work with a similar outlook and understanding. A typical treatment session consists of history taking, posture/movement assessment, and goal setting, followed by appropriate treatment. Clients receive specifically designed Exercise Programs and advice on ergonomics helping to reduce recurrence of injuries/problems. Adéle and her team works within a multi-disciplinary team consisting of all the practitioners required to find a working solution for each presenting problem within the client’s individual context. Adéle is a Registered Physiotherapist, Reflexologist, Watsu practitioner/Instructor and Heartmath coach. These techniques can be implemented to help with stress management, which has a big influence on pain and function. Always searching for effective ways in which to help people achieve their goals in health, Adéle is teaming up with other professionals designing Chronic pain workshops in order to disseminate the complicated and often confusing information in a simple and easy way to clients, family members and practitioners. Hydrotherapy forms a big part of our treatment plans, either on an individual basis or as groups. Our team also offers home visits, which is especially helpful after surgery. We treat orthopaedic, neurological & chest conditions and sports injuries. Some of these in include – Stroke, Parkinson’s, CP, post-surgical rehabilitation, headaches, whiplash, joint pain, bronchitis, pneumonia and many more. Our passion is early detection and prevention and we now offer screening for primary school children. This allows common problems to be identified and managed in order to prevent future problems.

Who took the blanket???

I have been working as a physio for the last 20 years and one of my biggest realisations is:

"The area of pain is NOT where the source of the cause is"

90% of the time there is a restriction / imbalance somewhere else in the body...

On the opposite side of the pain area...

The best analogy to describe this is:

"The one who steals the blanket at night is NOT the one who wakes up."

My job is to find the quiet sleeping one (muscle / posture / bracing / holding pattern) that puts pressure / tension on the sore painful area.

This process involves listening...

Not only to what clients say with their words and stories, but also to what their body's are saying...

And that includes their nervous system!

This is so great to see that teachers are getting involved in coherence awareness.

I have always wished that we can include more of our own human biology into the school curriculum.

Learning simple yet effective technique on how to regulate our nervous systems as kids would be Soooo helpful and powerful

School Leader’s Heart Coherence in Action
Imagine a school leader navigating her demanding day, her heart quietly recording every moment. For 24 hours, she wore a special device that tracked her heart rhythms.
Around 9:25 and 9:40 in the morning, as she prepared for an important meeting with a parent by practicing heart coherence, her heart rhythm transformed—becoming noticeably smoother and more harmonious. These moments on the graph stand out like calm islands in a sea of activity, suggesting she found a sense of calm and focus just when she needed it most.
