Danielle Roux Physiotherapy

Danielle Roux Physiotherapy This practice provides patient based focused care in a friendly and nurturing environment. My name is Danielle Roux. I qualified with a B.Sc.

in Physiotherapy in 2009, graduating summa cm laude, top in my class and top in clinical practice, from the University of the
Western Cape. I completed my Community Service at Kimberley Hospital Complex, in Kimberley, Northern Cape, in 2010. Whilst there, I completed numerous courses, which aided in my development and learning. As well as being exposed to many different wards in this clinical setting with patients with varying illnesses, disabilities and injuries. These further included the ICU, NICU and PICU units. Thereafter I was appointed as a senior physiotherapist at the same institution for 6 months. At the end of June, 2011 I relocated back home, to Cape Town to join a private practice, to work in and focus on the area, which is my passion, of Paediatric Physiotherapy. I was employed in the same practice for 4 and a half years and worked in both the chest physiotherapy area as well as the gross motor treatment area. I was further afforded the opportunity to branch out and treat many adult patients and I have an added interest in the treatment of sinusitis and injury treatment and prevention with the use of sports tape. I have continued my ongoing development by attending various courses and workshops every year. With my experience gained thus far, I felt it was time to branch out and open my own practice. Treatments included, but not limited to:

Chest Physiotherapy, including:

• Breathing exercises
• Nebulisation - if requested by the Doctor

Your patients don't need 10,000 steps to see life-changing health benefits ✨

Fresh research reveals that 7000 steps daily provides substantial health improvements across multiple systems - and it's far more achievable than traditional targets!

This comprehensive meta-analysis of 160,000+ participants shows even 4000 steps (vs 2000) reduces all-cause mortality by 36%. The key insight? Small improvements deliver big results, particularly for older adults where benefits increase linearly.

Perfect evidence for motivating patients with realistic, trackable goals using simple step counters or smartphones. No dramatic lifestyle changes required! 📱
