Musculoskeletal physiotherapy

Hands-on, evidence-based care for sprains, strains, overuse injuries, and the everyday aches that won't quite settle.

Musculoskeletal physiotherapy at Epstein Hunt Physiotherapy

What musculoskeletal physiotherapy covers

Most adults who come to us for the first time fall into this category: a nagging injury, a flare-up of an old issue, or pain that started without an obvious cause. Musculoskeletal physiotherapy is the broad umbrella for working with the joints, muscles, tendons, and movement patterns that drive these problems.

What a session looks like

  1. Movement and history. What’s happening, when did it start, what makes it better or worse.
  2. Hands-on assessment. Joint range, soft-tissue quality, the specifics.
  3. Targeted treatment. Manual therapy, mobilisations, soft-tissue work where it helps.
  4. An exercise plan that fits your life. Short, specific, and progressive.

Who delivers it

Sasha Hunt brings advanced neuromuscular-skeletal training (ANMS) to this work and supervises ANMS courses in Johannesburg and Pretoria — keeping current with the evidence is part of her practice.

Where the pool fits

Some musculoskeletal problems respond particularly well to aquatic work — chronic back issues, post-surgical recovery, knees that flare on land. Where this might help, we’ll talk you through it.
