Musculo-skeletal Physiotherapy · Illovo
Every appointment starts with a careful assessment. I tailor treatment to what each patient needs, from the first consultation through to full recovery.
Approach
I have focused on musculo-skeletal outpatient care since qualifying from Wits University in 1995. Every appointment starts with a careful assessment, followed by treatment tailored to what each patient needs.
Treatments
What I use depends entirely on the assessment. Not every session uses every treatment.
Mobility Work
Because movement is so essential to wellbeing, I added passive-assisted mobility and stretching to my treatment regime. The treatment is performed using precise and carefully graded techniques designed to improve joint mobility, reduce muscle spasm, and alleviate pain.
Sessions are individually tailored to each patient's needs and comfort level, making this an ideal option for those who may not tolerate more focused manual therapy.
At-Home Programme
I created a self-guided exercise programme blending Pilates, yoga and physiotherapy rehab concepts. It targets posture, core strength, conditioning and stretching, and it's suitable for all ages and abilities. A new class is available each week for you to follow when it suits you. Should you wish to find out more, or to join me, please contact me.

In the last year I was diagnosed with Parkinson's, but I was determined to keep moving. I now go to her once a week and have found it to be the most beneficial activity I do all week… I can highly recommend her professional approach and amazing knowledge of the human body.
Lana King has been instrumental in teaching me not only how to listen to my body, but how to honour, respect and understand it. Lana is patient, kind, soothing and incredibly gentle when one is struggling… Lana's engagement and guidance really does transcend it to a holistic wellness session.
I have been going to Lana for many years and she has honestly changed my life. She is an incredible physio.
Lana's expertise and attentiveness were apparent from the outset. A privilege to be treated by such a professional.
Lana is a wonderful physio and her years of experience really show. I came to her with tightness and pain in my calves from running, and she took the time to help me understand what was going on while giving me exercises that directly targeted the issue. She's brilliant, kind, and always quick to reply to messages with warmth. I couldn't recommend her more.
