Our Services

LP Physio offers a comprehensive range of physiotherapy services designed to cater to the unique needs of each patient. After an in-depth initial assessment, treatment plans are tailored to optimise recovery and enhance overall health.

Cancer Rehabilitation

Cancer treatments often leave patients with lasting side effects that can impact their quality of life. LP Physio specialises in cancer rehabilitation, focusing on reducing the physical effects of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Lomé Prinsloo and her team work closely with cancer patients to develop targeted rehabilitation plans, helping them regain strength, flexibility, and overall vitality.

Lymphoedema Treatment

Lymphoedema, a condition commonly seen in cancer patients or following surgery, can be effectively managed with FG-MLD (manual lymphatic drainage). LP Physio offers specialised treatment to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and alleviate discomfort caused by lymphatic fluid retention. Lomé is a certified FG-MLD Lymphoedema Therapist, ensuring that patients receive the highest level of care.

Pain Management & Myofascial Release

Whether you suffer from chronic pain, nerve conditions, or musculoskeletal injuries, pain management is a core service at LP Physio. The clinic uses a variety of techniques, including myofascial release, dry needling, and spinal/joint mobilisation, to help manage and alleviate pain effectively.

Sports and Soft Tissue Injuries

LP Physio provides treatment for a wide range of sports injuries, soft tissue strains, and sprains. Whether you’re recovering from a sporting injury or managing a chronic issue, tailored rehabilitation plans help promote healing and restore strength and mobility.

Post-operative Rehabilitation

Recovery after surgery requires careful attention and guided rehabilitation. LP Physio offers post-operative rehabilitation to assist in your recovery journey, ensuring that you regain strength, mobility, and independence.

Individualised Exercise Prescription

As part of a holistic approach, each patient receives individualised exercise prescriptions aimed at improving strength, flexibility, and endurance. These exercises are designed to address specific needs and can be adapted as patients progress in their treatment.

Massage Therapy

Therapeutic massage and myofascial release techniques are used to alleviate muscle tension, improve circulation, and enhance overall recovery. These treatments help with relaxation and pain relief, and are an integral part of holistic care at LP Physio.

Electrotherapy & Strapping

LP Physio employs electrotherapy modalities, such as ultrasound therapy, to promote healing, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain.

Ergonomic Advice & Education

Posture and movement habits are key factors in long-term health. LP Physio offers expert ergonomic advice to improve your workstation setup, and general patient education on posture and injury prevention. This helps clients in the workplace and daily life to maintain optimal posture and reduce the risk of injury.
