About Dr Carla Marais Chiropractor Rosebank

Dr Carla Marais is a qualified chiropractor with extensive experience in postural corrective care. She also has a strong passion for treating pregnancy and paediatric patients. After graduating from the Durban University of Technology in 2011, Dr Marais began her career in East London. There, she worked extensively with scoliosis patients and focused on postural restorative care. During this time, she attended the Williams Paediatric Seminar in the UK. This experience sparked her interest in caring for expectant mothers and young children.

In 2013, Dr Marais moved to Cape Town. She worked at a leading practice in Sea Point, where she further developed her skills in postural corrective care, pregnancy, and paediatrics. Then, in 2016, she opened her own practice in Cape Town’s Southern Suburbs. She continues to help patients achieve optimal health through chiropractic care.

Dr Carla Marais Chiropractor Rosebank Services

At Dr Carla Marais Chiropractic, we offer several services for musculoskeletal issues, posture, and overall health. Our treatments suit people of all ages, from infants to the elderly. Therefore, each patient receives care suited to their condition.

Chiropractic Adjustments

A chiropractic adjustment uses a gentle, controlled, hands-on force on specific joints. This aims to improve spine and joint alignment, restore function, and reduce pain. Adjustments can also help with discomfort linked to poor posture, joint dysfunction, and musculoskeletal conditions.

Impulse Adjuster

The Impulse Adjuster is an American-developed device that provides precise and gentle adjustments. Its microcomputer-controlled instrument applies controlled force to the affected area. As a result, it can help restore function and ease pain. This method suits patients of all ages and offers a non-invasive approach to chiropractic care.

Dry Needling

Dry needling uses acupuncture needles in specific myofascial trigger points in the muscles. It helps reduce muscle tension, improve pain control, and normalise biochemical and electrical dysfunction. It can also support faster recovery and rehabilitation.

Ultrasound Therapy

Ultrasound therapy uses a wand or probe that sits directly on the skin. It helps increase tissue relaxation and local blood flow while reducing chronic inflammation. It can also help break down scar tissue and reduce swelling.

Strapping and Taping

We offer Kinesio Taping and strapping to support recovery from joint pain and injuries. These methods can help reduce swelling, improve posture, and prevent further injury.
