Roelof Jacobs Physiotherapy – Stellenbosch

About Us

Roelof Jacobs Physiotherapy is dedicated to providing expert physiotherapy services in Stellenbosch. With a strong focus on musculoskeletal conditions, sports injuries, and office ergonomics, Roelof Jacobs brings years of experience to his practice.

After graduating with a B.Sc in Physiotherapy from the University of the Free State in 2009, he gained extensive experience working with both professional athletes and post-surgical hospital patients. His passion for movement and recovery extends beyond physiotherapy, as he has also collaborated with an architect to design ergonomic desk stands that promote standing while working.

As an avid mountain biker, trail runner, and rock climber, Roelof understands the demands placed on the body by an active lifestyle. His practice is committed to helping both competitive and recreational athletes recover from injuries and improve their performance. At the same time, he focuses on the well-being of desk-bound professionals who experience pain and discomfort from prolonged sitting.

Located within the Medical and Dental Centre in Technopark, the practice is easily accessible to office workers and residents in surrounding areas, including De Zalze, Paradyskloof, and Jamestown.
