I went to king park sport medicine for a severe and complex shoulder / neck Injury, having many disciplines on site makes a huge difference , with the practitioner willing to cross pollinate treatments, this approach enabled me to get great treatment from the Physio and then compliment the treatment with a bio for strength and rehab , I was able to make a great recovery.

Highly recommended for professionalism and results

This serves to express my gratitude to Ms MEGAN TONKINSON ( Physiotherapist):
I first consulted Megan at Virgin Active, Gateway, for injuries I had sustained from a fall three years ago and which injuries caused severe right-knee pain, shin and ankle pain, …resulting in impairment of movement, severe “shin-splint” pain and discomfort over a period of three years. The symptoms became progressively worse until I received a series of treatments from Megan.

Ms TONKINSON initially requested X-rays and after her diagnosis set about treating my knee and shins. Megan utilized various modalities of treatment including Ultrasound, movement rehabilitation, stretching exercises as well as massage. She also prescribed home exercises and stretching, followed by weekly assessments of my capacity to actually do the prescribed exercises.

Megan utilized her skills to make a proper diagnosis and thereafter focused on rehabilitative physiotherapy in a series of weekly treatments. I was particularly impressed with Megan’s thoroughness, caring and professional utilization of her physio-skills which resulted in a progressive improvement of my pain and discomfort.

My condition has improved to such an extent that I walk an average of 20km a week, do prescribed gym exercises as well as cycling.
My pain has disappeared and I have stopped using anti-inflammatory medication.
Sincere gratitude to Ms MEGAN TONKINSON.
Megan is highly recommended.

- Anilrai Sangham

Totally satisfied with the services I am receiving and my experiences at KPSMC. They are a great facility with wonderful admin staff and fantastic therapists. I have had no issues whatsoever.

I am most grateful to my awesome "rehab team", biokineticist (Keenan Naidoo) and physiotherapist (Megan Tonkinson and temporary stand-in Misha Erasmus).

They are professional, knowledgeable and highly competent and render their services with a wonderful demeanour for good measure.

I went to them with debilitating back issues. They conducted their evaluations and Megan also checked my scans and x-rays to determine the required treatments. I see them twice weekly and they have also provided a programme for me to follow at home.

We are not done yet, but I am absolutely thrilled with the progress we have made with my issues to date. Progress has been so good that I have also been able to start doing a decent amount of swimming. I haven't felt this good in years.

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending them.

A heartfelt, THANK YOU, to a special team.

6 Reasons Why You Need A Physiotherapist in Durban

When you hurt your back, hips, knees or shoulders, you may not know what caused it. You may not know how to ease your pain or how long you’ll need to rest. You may be able to function on your own, but you may have some lingering pain and an aching feeling from time to time. Physiotherapists are trained to help people of all ages who have pain and discomfort from injuries and conditions. They care for the entire body and work with people to help them regain movement, flexibility and strength. Here are 6 reasons why you may want to book an appointment with your local physiotherapist:

1. You Have Muscle Tightness

Muscle tightness can cause pain and limit movement. When someone has tight muscles, stretching them is harder. Stretching too far or too fast can cause injury. If you have a muscle strain, you may feel pain, strain or a burning sensation in the muscle. You may also feel a strain in nearby ligaments. Strengthening your muscles so they can support your movements without pain is important.

2. You Have Limited Movement

When you’re in pain, movement may be limited. You may be able to move around in bed or while sitting in a chair. You may also be able to reach out and around with one arm. You may be able to stand with a walker or crutches. Physiotherapists can help you move through the pain to get you back to your normal activities.

This can include:
- Joint mobilizations to help loosen up stiff joints and reduce pain
- Strengthening exercises to strengthen weak muscles
- Range of motion exercises to help increase the range of your movements

3. Physiotherapists Can Help With Conditions Like Obesity

Obesity and arthritis may seem like opposite conditions, but physiotherapists can help obese people become more active while reducing pain and improving mobility. Our physiotherapists in Durban can work with you to identify any pain or limiting factors that may be contributing to your weight. They will work with you to create an individualized treatment plan that includes diet and exercise.

4. They Can Help With Conditions Like Back Pain, Knee Pain And Arthritis

Injury or a condition like arthritis may have caused pain in your back, knee or other joints. Our physiotherapists in Durban can help you heal by treating your injury and reducing pain. They can also help with conditions like arthritis and other joint pain by helping you improve flexibility and movement through your joints.

5. You Have Joint Pain & Stiffness

A sore joint can be a sign of injury or a condition like arthritis. You may have a minor injury or joint inflammation without any pain. Physiotherapists will help you determine how long you need to rest and find out what caused your joint pain and how to get back to health fast!

6. You Need to Regain Movement

You may have had an injury that caused you to lose movement or strength. You may need to regain movement through physiotherapy to prepare for surgery. Our friendly physiotherapists can work with people of all ages to restore the movement you deserve.
