Common questions

Frequently asked questions

What does a biokineticist in Durban treat?

Biokineticists work with a range of musculoskeletal and chronic conditions, including back and joint pain, post-surgical rehabilitation, and cardiovascular or metabolic conditions. Treatment typically involves structured, progressive exercise programmes rather than manual therapy or medication.

What happens during a first appointment?

A first consultation generally includes a physical assessment, a review of medical history and any referral information, and a discussion of movement goals. From this, the biokineticist develops a personalised exercise-based rehabilitation plan.

Do I need a referral to see a biokineticist?

Many patients are referred by a doctor, physiotherapist, or orthopaedic surgeon, though self-referral is often possible. Medical aid cover may depend on whether a referral letter is provided, so it is worth checking with your scheme beforehand.

There is currently 1 biokineticist listed on this directory for the Durban area. Listings may be updated over time as more practitioners register.

Is biokinetics suitable for everyday injuries from sport or exercise?
