ABOUT JULIA ŠMIGELSKIS PHYSIOTHERAPY

Julia is a qualified sport physiotherapist with a MSc degree from the University of Cape Town.

 

After finishing her undergrad in Austria, Julia spent some time working in an Austrian private hospital with a focus on orthopaedic and neurological rehabilitation. When she returned to South Africa in 2014, she qualified as a neuromusculoskeletal physiotherapist, before completing her Masters in Exercise and Sport Physiotherapy in 2021. She is actively involved in postgrad education at UCT for the Department of Health and Rehabilitation Sciences.

 

Julia thoroughly enjoys working with all kinds of orthopaedic patients and has a passion for outdoor and adventure sport. Her special interest is in climbing related physiotherapy, especially assessing and treating finger injuries, but also optimising climbing performance.

 

A physiotherapy session with Julia has a strong focus on identifying the underlying issue and tailoring a management plan to the individual patient or athlete, with their personal goals at the centre of continuing care.

FIRST SESSION

Putting You First

During the first 60min appointment, we will speak about your reason for coming to physiotherapy and discuss your treatment goals. We will then do a thorough assessment, after which we discuss your management plan. 

This session includes treatment and a tailored home exercise program.

FOLLOW-UP TREATMENT

Patient-Centered Treatment

Should you require ongoing therapy, these 45min follow-up appointments are for you. During these sessions we will follow and adapt our treatment plan, implementing a number of physiotherapy techniques and exercise interventions to help you reach your goal.

SPORTS MASSAGE

Optimising Performance

In order to perform at the top of your game, your body sometimes needs a little assistance. 

These sessions are geared towards the uninjured athlete and include maintenance sport-massage and joint mobility techniques after a brief assessment.
