Our Mt. Edgecombe branch of Kings Park Sports Medicine Centre (KPSMC) opened at the beginning of 2011. It is based on the same ethos and principles of KPSMC, which is a multidisciplinary clinic in Durban (first of its kind) formed 16 years ago.

This Mt Edgecombe branch is a vibrant and dynamic multidisciplinary clinic which offers Physiotherapy, Dietician, Nursing Sister and Quantam Biofeedback – SCIO. In the new year we will be adding a Chiropractor and Masseur.

Our practitioners treat conditions across the board and are a proud and highly professional unit that integrate well together. We have a strong referral base for conditions that require specialized treatment or further investigations.

This clinic is open to both residents of the Estates as well as non-residents. Anyone is welcome.

Kerryn’s main goal is to educate, and to enhance the performance of, both recreational and professional athletes via their nutrition plans, and in doing so, help them compete to the best of their ability.

Our team of physiotherapists are very "hands on" as we believe this approach is essential in delivering the desired results.

We treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions and specialise in sports injuries, spinal conditions of the neck and back, headaches, post-operative rehabilitation as well as general maintenance and conditioning of athletes.

Our typical treatment will consist of a "hands on" soft tissue release as well as a joint mobilisation or manipulation. We normally combine electrotherapy or accupuncture to the treatment depending on the condition.

A comprehensive assessment is given in the first session and exercise prescriptions are given in the following sessions. Patients may then be referred to the Biokinetist.

CONDITIONS TREATED:

all sporting injuries
muscle, tendon and ligament injuries
neck pain and stiffness
whiplash injuries
low back pain (disc prolapse)
arthritis
sciatica
post-operative rehab
overuse injuries

The SCIO inventor, Dr. William Nelson was one of the genius' chosen for the NASA APOLLO MISSION, sending people into space. His son was born autistic. He invented the SCIO device to help his son's condition. To this day his son is no longer autistic.

80 – 90 % of all diseases are caused from stress.

With state of the art, sophisticated technology, the new generation SCIO device has a matrix of highly complexed programes. Quantum Biofeedback is the most advanced system of analysis and therapy available in energetic medicine. It scans the body (like a virus-scan on a computer) looking for everything from viruses, deficiencies, weaknesses, allergies, abnormalities and food sensitivities. It reports on the biological reactivity and resonance in your body and indicates needs, dysfunctions and vulnerabilities.

Pain free, non invasive! Electrodes attached to your head and limbs measure and feed frequency, resonance, voltage, galvanic impulses, electro magnetic current, amperage, proton, electron and resistance information between the client and the SCIO device. Responses are measured with unprecedented accuracy. The SCIO device sends an alternate pulse back, to which the body responds. In turn, the body alters its own reactance pulse, with profound effects, so you can learn to increase and manage your energy and stress better. From pain to no pain, malignant to benign, compulsive to anxiety-free, imbalance to balance.
