Success Stories
Shawn struggled with ankle mobility for years after ligament surgery, and the extra strain eventually led to severe knee pain whenever he ran. Through a personalised rehabilitation and strength programme, he gradually rebuilt his movement, trained pain-free, and went on to achieve an incredible milestone, completing a 100km ultramarathon.
"She managed to take me from unbearable pain in my right knee when running to being able to take on a 100km run."

For years, Maggie struggled with chronic back pain following a slipped disc, and by her forties, the pain had become part of her daily life. She believed surgery might be her only option. Through a personalised rehabilitation programme, she discovered the importance of building strength from the ground up, improving everything from ankle stability, movement, and overall function. Today, she's moving with greater confidence, experiencing significantly less pain, and has a whole new outlook on what's possible.

Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Biokinetics is a science-based form of exercise therapy. A registered Biokineticist uses movement, prescribed exercise and hands-on guidance to help your body recover, get stronger and function properly again — the final step in the medical recovery chain, bridging the gap between treatment and everyday life.
Most South African medical aids offer some cover for Biokinetics, either from savings or a chronic/rehabilitation benefit. We'll help you understand what your plan covers before you commit to anything.
Every plan is personalised to you. After your first assessment, you'll leave with a clear picture of what recovery looks like and roughly how long it will take.
No referral is required to get started. Some medical aids may request one for claims purposes, and we'll guide you through that if it applies to you.
Yes. Many of the people we help have been living with pain for years and assumed it was just something to manage. Finding the actual root cause often changes that.
