The My Family Chiro Approach

In a world of social media and conflicting opinions, it’s important to recognise that not all chiropractors practise in the same way. There is considerable variation in approaches, philosophies, and treatment methods within the profession.

 

At My Family Chiro, the focus is on providing thorough, individualised care. All consultations and treatments are conducted in a private room at Beyond Wellness Centre, allowing for a more focused, comfortable, and confidential environment.

 

As a solo practitioner, I take the time to understand each patient properly - through detailed, in-room assessments and orthopaedic testing - before delivering hands-on treatment tailored to your needs. 

Care may include chiropractic adjustments (either manual or using an Activator, depending on your preference), along with dry needling, soft tissue therapy, exercise prescription, and sports taping where appropriate. I also refer out when necessary or required - and do not send for x-rays unless clinically justified.

 

My training at the University of Johannesburg involved completing an internationally recognised six-year Master’s degree in Chiropractic. This full-time program placed a strong emphasis on anatomy, pathology, radiology, and diagnostics, alongside extensive clinical experience and chiropractic adjustments. The depth and breadth of this education support a careful, considered approach to assessing and managing neuro-musculoskeletal conditions.

 

As part of this program, I completed a wide range of subjects, including:

  • Anatomy I & II (including a full year of human cadaver dissection)

  • Chiropractic Technique and Clinical Chiropractic (Years 3–5)

  • Diagnostics III & IV

  • General and Systemic Pathology

  • Radiology and Radiography

  • Auxiliary Therapeutics (including IFC, TENS, strapping, and therapeutic ultrasound)

  • Myofascial Dry Needling (theory and clinical application)

 

The aim is simple: to provide honest, thorough care that helps you move better, feel better, and understand your body more clearly.
