We form part of a multidisciplinary team at Constantiaberg Human Performance centre. We utilise skills such as manual mobilisations, myofascial treatment and massage of all soft tissue structures and joints to help with the treatment of pain and stiffness. Manual Lymph Drainage as well as compression bandaging systems are used to treat swelling and disability in lymphoedema conditions. Similarly, adults and children with lung and sinus conditions are treated with nebulisations, percussions and suctioning (where necessary). At the Practice, we incorporate state-of-the-art technology such as shockwave therapy in order to reach optimal results in injury treatment. In conjunction with this, strapping, dry needling and rehabilitation through Pilates are included to achieve success in pain and injury management. We strive to successfully treat and rehabilitate our patients so that they can return to an active and pain-free lifestyle.

Understanding “Cheating Mechanisms”

When stabiliser muscles switch off (often after injury or growth spurts), the body forces other muscles to compensate — leading to pain and poor movement.
Pilates retrains these stabiliser muscles so your body moves the way it was designed to.

✨ Build stability.
✨ Prevent injuries.
✨ Improve posture.

What Is Sinusitis?

Sinusitis is inflammation of the sinus cavities, causing fluid build-up, blocked drainage, and infection.

Our Approach
We are neuromuscular-skeletal physiotherapists with a very hands-on approach, as well as focusing on rehabilitation.
Through focused physiotherapy, we aim to help the client return to pre-injury function and sometimes achieve even more depending on the situation. We believe in preventative care and empowering the client to help themselves by managing their own bodies and conditions.
Our physiotherapy aims to reduce pain, improve range of movement, strengthen and lengthen the relevant muscles with a goal of getting the client back to activities of daily living and return to work and sport.
