Sport Science Physiotherapy & Medical Centre

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapists are trained healthcare professionals that help people affected by injury, illness or disability through movement and exercise, manual therapy, education and advice. They maintain health for people of all ages, helping patients to manage pain and prevent disease.

The core purpose at SSPMC is to encourage development thus enabling people to stay in work, continue with family responsibilities and remain independent for as long as possible. At SSPMC we work closely with other health practitioners both within Netcare Christiaan Barnard Memorial Hospital as well as surrounding hospitals. This way of management ensures our clients receive an integrated and holistic team approach to restoring function.

Our physiotherapists have a passion for movement, health, and fitness. This allows us to help our athletic clientele return to their respective sports through evidence-based treatment and rehabilitative protocols.

For integrative, compassionate and high-quality assessment and treatment, look no further than the Sports Science Physiotherapy and Medical Centre.

Sports Recovery

Intermittent Pneumatic compression – Rapid Reboot
Rapid Reboot utilizes dynamic, sequential compression, a concept based on decades of research into biomimicry, or the science of simulating the body’s natural biomechanics to enhance physiological benefits.

Rapid Reboot’s dynamic compression dramatically enhances blood flow, improves lymphatic function, flushes out lactic acid, eliminates muscle soreness, and increases mobility – all of which help you recover faster and get back to your best.

Rapid Reboot offers higher pressure options and faster cycles than the competition, meaning greater efficiency and more results.

Hyperbaric Chamber
The use of pure 95% oxygen in a high pressure atmosphere has been shown to have extraordinary health benefits.

The hyperbaric chamber has pure oxygen coming in at pressures 1.4 – 3 times the normal atmospheric pressure.

Treatment times range from 30-90 minutes. Using oxygen at higher pressures causes up to 20 times more oxygen to be absorbed by the blood and transferred to injured organs and tissues.

This speeds healing and recovery time in addition to other benefits.
