Family Physiotherapy uses the latest techniques and equipment to help restore muscle and joint function. In addition, the qualified physiotherapists use evidence-based treatments to support healing, ease pain, and improve overall health.

All physiotherapists are registered with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and the South African Society of Physiotherapy (SASP). Patients also do not need a referral letter because physiotherapists are first-line healthcare providers.

Muscle and Joint Treatment

The team treats many muscle and joint injuries. Treatment aims to reduce pain, restore movement, improve function, and help prevent future injuries.

Conditions treated include:

• Sciatica
• Scoliosis
• Whiplash
• Chronic pain
• Fibromyalgia
• Joint stiffness
• Osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis
• Sports injuries
• Biomechanical issues
• Sprains and strains

Neurological and Post-Operative Care

Family Physiotherapy also provides rehabilitation for neurological conditions. For example, the team helps patients recovering from strokes, brain injuries, and other neurological issues. Treatment focuses on functional movement and independence.

After surgery, physiotherapy can support recovery in several ways. The team helps manage pain, improve mobility, and rebuild strength through personalised post-operative rehabilitation plans.

Respiratory and Women’s Health

The practice treats respiratory conditions such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), asthma, and pneumonia. These treatments aim to improve lung function and make breathing easier.

Women’s health is another area of expertise. The team treats pelvic floor dysfunction, provides pre- and post-natal care, and manages general musculoskeletal concerns related to women’s health.
