In-Balance Physiotherapy & Pilates – Randburg

About Us

At In-Balance Physiotherapy & Pilates, we are a dynamic physiotherapy practice located in Randburg, with a special focus on spinal conditions. Whether you are experiencing lower back pain, neck pain, headaches, or referred pain, our team is here to provide expert treatment tailored to your needs. We prioritise accurate diagnosis and comprehensive treatment, starting with a detailed assessment during your initial consultation.

Our approach to physiotherapy is holistic. We understand that many conditions are interconnected, so we treat each individual based on their specific condition while also addressing potential underlying issues. For example, pelvic asymmetries, SIJ pain, and ITB problems often fall under spinal disorders. Likewise, TMJ pain can be linked to tension-type headaches. We also specialise in post-operative rehabilitation, including total knee replacements, ligament repairs, and arthroscopies.

As first-line practitioners, we do not require a referral, making it easy for you to see us and begin treatment without delay. We ensure that our treatments not only relieve symptoms but also help prevent recurrences through structured exercises and rehabilitative Pilates sessions.

Our Services

At In-Balance Physiotherapy & Pilates, we use a variety of treatment techniques to provide effective care for a wide range of conditions. Our sessions typically last 45 minutes and include an extensive assessment or reassessment to guide your treatment plan. This allows us to provide the most effective physiotherapy treatments while ensuring your progress is monitored.
