We’ve been delivering quality chiropractic care to the Western Cape since our return from the United States in 2005.

Our approach is simple. We believe that health is among our most valuable possessions. And while we generally meet people after they’ve lost their health, our commitment is two-fold.

In 1997 a friend asked me to join him on a six-month holiday in America. I ended up in Dallas, Texas playing rugby for three years for the Dallas Harlequins. A week before my return to South Africa in my last match I was offered a scholarship to study and play at the Life University of Chiropractic. I accepted the scholarship and began my chiropractic education not knowing that this was to be my calling…now I know, nine years later and after a year back in South Africa. I admit, that I never chose chiropractic as a profession, but during my second year, it became clear to me.

A world-famous French chiropractor, Arno Burnier came to speak at the University’s assembly. He started off by saying, “I want you to think about this, did you choose chiropractic or did chiropractic choose you?” No questions, I knew. Looking back at the road I had travelled and where I was sitting at the moment, it became perfectly clear to me, that there are no coincidences. Chiropractic focuses on all aspects of healing, mind, body, and spirit.

Studying at Life University in Atlanta was a great experience and I can say when I finished I was confident and ready to practice. They offer almost every known chiropractic technique and train you with hands-on experience by some of the best in the profession. We were taught to address the patient, not just the symptoms they present, and that is what I do in practice.

Many of the health problems that people experience can be eliminated by making certain lifestyle changes. Together with the chiropractic adjustment, we are interested in what people eat, their fluid intake, sleep patterns, exercise and often overlooked thought patterns(stress). When these aspects are effectively evaluated and implicated in people’s lifestyles, health and vitality tend to flow naturally.

Our focus then is a more proactive approach to health rather than a reactive approach, or true health care rather than sick care. It is remarkable to see the changes when the simple holistic approach is followed. We want to inspire and lead people to be healthier, better human beings.

Everybody can benefit from chiropractic, young and old and we modify our techniques to fit people of all ages and walks of life. We know that ensuring children’s spine and nervous system are functioning at their best, not only contributes to their overall growth and development but will produce much healthier adulthood. Chiropractic is also beneficial to sports enthusiasts, businessmen and women alike, pregnant women, the older and wiser generations, and anyone who would like to lead a more healthier, optimal lifestyle.

In my free time, I like to stay active and enjoy cycling, spearfishing, underwater hockey and spending time with my family. Since my love is the ocean I frequently visit my parents in Kleinmond or you can catch me somewhere along the coastline. Knowing chiropractic isn’t just my day job but a lifestyle, it allows me to thoroughly enjoy my time and endeavours with my friends, family and loved ones.

With a better understanding of where I am coming from, I look forward to meeting you and learning how we may be of service to you. Give our Stellenbosch office a call, or email us and let’s arrange a time to explore how we can help you move towards better health.
