Marilize Stander Physiotherapy – Roodepoort

About Marilize Stander Physiotherapy

Marilize Stander Physiotherapy is a practice built on passion, expertise, and experience. The journey began when Marilize was just a 4-year-old suffering from asthma. It was during her early years that she was introduced to the world of physiotherapy, and from that moment, she knew it was her calling.

After graduating with a degree in Physiotherapy from the University of Pretoria in 2009, Marilize undertook her community service at the Tshwane Rehabilitation Center in Pretoria. Here, she gained invaluable experience in the rehabilitation of patients with spinal cord injuries and neurological conditions.

In 2012, Marilize relocated to the Northern Cape Province, where she worked at a private practice and also provided part-time services at Krugersdorp Hospital, treating patients in an acute setting. The following years saw her opening her own practice in Kathu in 2018, providing care to various communities, including the mining, SANDF, and farming sectors.

In 2023, Marilize returned to Johannesburg and established a new practice in Helderkruin, Roodepoort, where she continues to provide quality physiotherapy services to her patients.

Marilize is a registered physiotherapist with the Health Professions Council of South Africa (HPCSA) and is a proud member of the South African Society of Physiotherapy (SASP). She is also involved with the Private Sector and the Pain Management Physiotherapy Group (PMPG).

Dry needling is used to treat muscle tension, trigger points, and pain through the insertion of fine needles. This technique promotes healing and pain relief.

Electrotherapy

We utilise various forms of electrotherapy, such as TENS and ultrasound therapy, to stimulate muscles, reduce pain, and promote tissue healing.

Kinesiology strapping is often used to provide support to joints, muscles, and ligaments to prevent injury and promote healing after an injury.
