Viljoen Physiotherapists – Pretoria

About Us

At Viljoen Physiotherapists, we believe that movement is the foundation of health. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or striving for peak physical performance, our goal is to restore your mobility, keep you moving, and ensure an effective and stress-free rehabilitation journey.

Founded by Cobus Viljoen, a dedicated physiotherapist who completed his studies at the University of the Free State in 2016, our practice is built on a patient-centred approach. With a strong passion for treating aches, pains, and sports-related injuries, Cobus is committed to delivering the highest standard of treatment and long-term wellness strategies.

Since launching the practice in 2021, we have created a unique, gym-based setup that allows patients to receive physiotherapy treatment in a dynamic and functional environment. Working alongside biokineticists, personal trainers, and general practitioners, we ensure that each patient receives comprehensive care to optimise recovery and performance.

Our Services

Assessment & Diagnosis

Understanding the root cause of pain or dysfunction is the first step in effective treatment. We conduct thorough assessments to diagnose musculoskeletal conditions, ensuring that every treatment plan is tailored to individual needs.

Treatment & Therapy

Using evidence-based techniques, we offer a range of physiotherapy treatments to aid in pain relief, mobility restoration, and injury recovery. Our treatments include:

• Joint mobilisation and manipulation
• Soft tissue release and massage therapy
• Dry needling for pain relief and muscle relaxation
• Taping and strapping for injury support
• Electrotherapy for enhanced healing
• Rehabilitation exercises tailored to specific injuries

Sports Injury Rehabilitation

Athletes and active individuals require specialised rehabilitation to recover fully and prevent future injuries. We work closely with personal trainers and biokineticists to design effective return-to-sport programmes, focusing on:

• Muscle reconditioning and strengthening
• Injury prevention strategies
• Biomechanical analysis and correction

Post-Surgical Rehabilitation

Recovery from surgery can be challenging, but with guided rehabilitation, we help patients regain mobility and function efficiently. Our post-operative care includes structured exercise programmes and hands-on treatment for optimal healing.

Pain Management & Chronic Conditions

We treat a variety of conditions, ensuring that patients find relief from persistent pain and discomfort. Common conditions we address include:

• Back and neck pain
• Muscle and joint pain
• Headaches related to musculoskeletal dysfunction
• Sprains and strains
• Tendonitis and tendinopathies
• Postural correction for long-term health

Sports Massages

For those looking to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and enhance recovery, we provide sports massage therapy. This is particularly beneficial for individuals who engage in intense training, repetitive movements, or physically demanding activities.
