Story is powerful.
And yours is important to us.
We all have a story, and sometimes our stories intersect. This is what we hope to do through our clinic and with you, our patients.
As a family our story took a big turn when we decided to move half way around the globe and to the opposite hemisphere, from South Africa to Canada. And like any good adventure story, there is often a twist to create some more drama. In our case (as it did to many others) COVID payed a key role.
Without going into the gory details, I was separated from my wife Ingrid and our two sons for more than a year.
This, obviously, set our plans back more than a few steps.
Ingrid and I have run two of our own Physio clinics for the past twenty years. The first was in the beautiful North-eastern corner of SA in a town called Nelspruit. This is in a region known as the Lowveld, and is home to the Kruger National Park, one of the best wildlife and wilderness areas in the whole of Africa. Both of our sons were born there, and when they were of school going age we moved to Somerset West, between Cape Town and Stellenbosch in the Winelands area of the Cape. This is where we had our second clinic.
Our sons were privileged to have grown up experiencing the best of these two great areas. The animals and bush-veld of Mpumalanga, as well as the pristine beaches and mountains of the Cape. Close to the end of their high-school careers, we all agreed on the big decision to start a new chapter of our story in Canada, specifically beautiful Victoria.
The plan was to try and open our own clinic here within about two years of arriving. This was, unfortunately, not even remotely possible. However, during this time we have both been blessed to have worked in a few excellent clinics, with some great people. All with high standards, and quality service.
This was a perfect learning curve and stepping stone to opening our own clinic. It was, obviously, also a good opportunity to get to meet and work with a diverse range of patients. And, of course, this is where we get to become part of each others stories. We both count ourselves fortunate to have developed long-tern relationships with some of our patients, and look forward to building even more.
Wether your story is successfully completing your first 10km, or your 10th Ultra, being able to pick-up and play with your grandkids, to get back to an effective, pain-free golf swing, or finding your path back to full function after surgery, we would love to be a part of that great story!
As physios we are privileged to become part of your story, whatever it may be, and as an added bonus, you get to become part of ours too.
Hopefully with this new chapter we all get to create, and tell some inspiring new stories.
It’s Your Story.
