I was training for my first marathon in Oct. I needed some physio and have always gone to KPMED. I was assisted by Peta Venter, and I could not have been more pleased.

I have seen Kyle Soobramoney, for a server muscle spasm on my right shoulder which he released the tension in the first session and completely recovered me in the second session. Kyle is very good in what he dose and is passionate during his sessions, never hurting me and always making sure that I’m okay. I would highly recommend Kyle...
Kyle Soobramoney is the best Physiotherapist. Thank you for your professionalism, patience, guidance and bubbly personality. This consultation helped my running journey as a novice runner, a lot. Keep it up and God bless you and your team
I saw Joel for a shoulder injury which was causing neck pain and headaches. He was excellent and very professional. He treated the issue holistically with a combination of massage, needling and stretches (and also recommended some supplements like vitamin B12 for recovery). Thanks so much Joel!
