Meet Helene Simpson – Founder & Physiotherapist

Helene’s passion for physiotherapy started through her own experience as an athlete. She graduated top of her class from the University of the Free State in 1984. She then worked at the Conradie Spinal Unit, where she gained valuable experience in sports and disability rehabilitation.

In 1990, Helene studied for a BSc Med Hons (Sports Science) at the University of Cape Town. At the same time, she volunteered at the Sport Injury Centre (SIC). By 1991, she managed the centre and helped turn it into a well-known sports practice with a multi-disciplinary approach.

In 1997, Helene privatised the practice. Since then, she has built a strong reputation for complete treatment and teamwork with leading medical professionals, including sports physicians, surgeons, and biokineticists.
