\n\tAbout Denise Read's practice:<\/span><\/strong>\n<\/p>\n

\n\tDenise Read is an independent physiotherapist practising in Claremont, Cape Town. Having graduated from the University of Cape Town, Denise has 35 years experience in the field of physiotherapy.<\/span>\n<\/p>\n

\n\t \n<\/div>\n
\n\tDenise sees value in combining an integrative approach to healing, incorporating both allopathic medicine & complimentary medicine, seeing the client as a whole being. She is in a unique position to offer a multi-disciplinary approach, that has shown to be superior in the rehabilitation of her clients, in order that each client reaches their highest potential for their given circumstances. Denise & her associates work closely with the client, their doctor & allied health professionals to ensure this.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t \n<\/div>\n
\n\tDenise’s practice is a caring & nurturing environment. In pondering why some clients heal with greater difficulty, Denise began to explore other avenues of healing, including Reiki, Cranio-Sacral Therapy, Visceral Mobilisation, and Reconnective Healing.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t \n<\/div>\n
\n\tCranio-Sacral Therapy is a very gentle, soft, non invasive touch therapy, which evaluates, enhances & facilitates the release of restrictions in many parts of the body. It is good for soft tissue injuries, neck & back pain, headaches, chronic fatigue syndrome, stress release, pregnant moms with back-ache, babies with colic, temperomandibular joint pain, jaw clenching & teeth grinding.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t \n<\/div>\n
\n\tDenise has also studied Visceral (organ) Mobilization with the Jean-Pierre Barrel Institute from Switzerland, as well as Reconnective Healing & The Reconnection with Eric Pearl from America.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\tShe is trained in dry needling & uses it where appropriate, as well as using Kinesio-taping, which is a new method of taping, also favoured by elite sports participants. Depending on its application, the tape can also facilitate the absorption of traumatic & post operative swelling, encourage\/inhibit muscle action, or protect joint function. The value of the tape is that it allows early movement & thus a quicker healing & return to normal function.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\t \n<\/div>\n
\n\tAt Denise’s practice there is specialised Bobath treatment for neurologically compromised clients, post operative upper & lower limb conditions, sports injuries and chest conditions. Her practice sees patients in her consulting rooms, as well as in the Claremont Surgical Clinic & Kingsbury Hospital. The practice does domiciliary visits in the local area.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
\n\tDenise’s practice charges fees that are in accordance with those recognized by the SASP & most medical aids.<\/span>\n<\/div>\n
