Marilie Lombard – Biokineticist – Monument Park practices at Marilie Lombard Biokineticists, a people-centred biokinetics practice specializing in rehabilitation, wellness, and health mlbiokinetics.co.za. She holds a BA in Human Movement Science, a BA(Hons) in Biokinetics, and an MSc in Biokinetics, and she brings over eight years of clinical experience to her role. Moreover, she collaborates daily with sport physicians, general practitioners, orthopaedic surgeons, and physiotherapists. Consequently, every care plan reflects a truly multidisciplinary, patient-centred approach.
Furthermore, Marilie integrates cutting-edge EMG (electromyography) and EMS (electrical muscle stimulation) technologies to quantify muscle activation and guide precision exercise prescriptions. As a result, she tailors each programme to match a client’s unique biomechanics and recovery objectives. Additionally, she emphasizes a holistic philosophy, ensuring that physical-activity interventions also promote long-term wellness.
Marilie Lombard Biokineticists delivers a broad range of personalized services, each structured around specialized assessment, measurable goals, and active client engagement:
Special Populations & Physical-Ability Assessment
She assesses and prescribes safe exercise programmes for children, pre- and post-natal women, the elderly, and general workforce clients. Therefore, every individual receives a plan that aligns with their life stage and functional needs.
Orthopaedic Rehabilitation
In close collaboration with orthopaedic surgeons, Marilie designs pre-hab injury-prevention programmes and pre- and post-operative rehabilitation. She also conducts clinical assessments and prescribes functional exercise plans for neck, back, shoulder, hip, knee, and ankle injuries. Consequently, patients rebuild mobility and reduce recurrence risk.
Musculoskeletal Rehabilitation for Neurological Conditions
She applies targeted movement strategies to address neurological challenges—such as stroke or Parkinson’s disease—thereby improving motor control, balance, and confidence in daily activities.
Sport Performance Enhancement
Marilie conducts sport-specific testing and conditioning for athletes of all ages. Moreover, she develops programmes to boost speed, strength, endurance, flexibility, power, agility, and reaction time. As a result, athletes achieve peak performance while minimizing injury risk.
Chronic Disease Management
Through clinical assessment and tailored exercise prescriptions, she prevents and manages chronic conditions—such as heart disease, diabetes, arthritis, osteoporosis, hypertension, respiratory disorders, obesity, and muscular dystrophy. Additionally, she leads cardiac and stroke rehabilitation, ensuring clients regain independence and optimize cardiovascular health.
Lung Function Assessment
She evaluates respiratory capacity to guide exercise intensity and monitor progress in clients with pulmonary challenges. Consequently, patients enjoy safer, more effective conditioning.
Electrical Muscle Stimulation (EMS)
By delivering targeted electrical impulses, she enhances muscle activation and supports neuromuscular re-education. Therefore, clients experience faster gains in strength and functional control.
EMG Analysis
She utilizes surface EMG to record muscle-activity patterns during movement. Then, she interprets the data to refine exercise techniques and address compensations. As a result, treatment precision improves and recovery accelerates.
Marilie began her career in public-sector clinics before founding Marilie Lombard Biokineticists. Since then, she has developed multidisciplinary protocols that minimize invasive procedures and maximize non-surgical recovery options. Moreover, she publishes peer-reviewed research on spinal rehabilitation, children’s physical-activity promotion, and public-health issues such as HIV and TB. Consequently, her practice remains at the forefront of biokinetic innovation.
Furthermore, she mentors biokinetic interns and leads continuing-professional-development workshops for allied-health professionals. She also holds an AO Spine Global Diploma in Rehabilitation Techniques and regularly updates her skills through international training.
Importantly, every new client undergoes a comprehensive movement assessment that integrates EMG findings, biomechanical analysis, and personal goals. Thereafter, Marilie collaborates with her multidisciplinary team to co-create a personalized rehabilitation plan that aligns with each individual’s lifestyle and recovery objectives.
Whether you seek post-operative spinal support, athletic performance gains, or chronic-condition management, Marilie Lombard’s evidence-based, technology-enhanced, and team-driven biokinetic services provide a clear pathway to restored function and enduring well-being. Schedule a consultation today to begin your journey toward optimal movement and renewed quality of life.
