As another year is rolling towards its end, it was only fitting that we try our hand at rolling some bowls. It has been 12 years since Ilse Pienaar Physiotherapist had the opportunity to move into the premises of 3B Vlei street. This year its become more officially known as Therapy on Vlei. Through the years many faces has changed. Some left, some came along and some just grew older. An absolutely unique group of people together that does not really allow anyone to be without a smile or a laugh for too long. Thank you to everyone at Therapy on Vlei for making life unique and thank you to every single patient that comes through those doors and supports us. May we all end 2025 on a high.

💥 PhysioMyth vs. Fact! 💥

❌ Myth: “Physiotherapy is just massage and exercise.”
✅ Fact: Physiotherapy is so much more! 🙌

Physios are movement and health professionals who assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of conditions — from sports injuries and chronic pain to neurological, respiratory, paediatrics, and pelvic health issues.

💡 Think: rehabilitation, prevention, education, hands-on techniques, and personalised care — all rolled into one profession!

🧠 PhysioMyth vs. Fact! 🧠

❌ Myth: “You need a doctor’s referral to see a physiotherapist.”
✅ Fact: You can go directly to a physiotherapist without a referral! 🙌

Physios are first-line practitioners – trained to assess, diagnose, and treat a wide range of conditions. Early access = faster recovery. Why wait?

💡 PhysioMyth vs. Fact! 💡

❌ Myth: "If you have back pain, you should rest and avoid movement."

✅ Fact: Movement is medicine! 🚶‍♂️💪 Gentle activity and targeted exercises can actually help reduce pain and speed up recovery. Complete rest can sometimes make things worse by causing stiffness and weakness. If in doubt, consult a physio!
