Born and bred in Paarl, Ghéte Pegram has always had sport at the center of her world. Whether she's courtside at a tennis match or in the treatment room working with a patient, her passion for movement runs through everything she does.

Her background in sport gives her a real understanding of what it means to be sidelined and what it takes to get back to doing what you love. She has a particular interest in orthopedic conditions and brings that same drive to staying at the forefront of evidence-based practice.

Enthusiastic, approachable, and genuinely invested in her patients, Ghéte believes in empowering people through education and active rehabilitation. Not just treating the injury, but building the understanding that prevents the next one.

We're lucky to have her on the team.

Frozen shoulder treatment isn't one size fits all, and it isn't static. What works in the freezing stage is completely different to what's needed in the thawing stage.

At Paarl Physios, treatment is built around where you are in the condition at any given point.

No two shoulders are the same.
Your treatment plan shouldn't be either.

Managing a frozen shoulder?

One of the most common things we hear from patients is that they were told to just wait it out.
The problem isn't the waiting. It's what happens during it. Months of disrupted sleep. Gradually avoiding certain movements without realising it. The neck, upper back, and opposite shoulder starting to compensate, creating a whole new set of problems on top of the original one.

Physiotherapy works with the natural process, not against it. It manages pain at each stage, keeps movement from deteriorating further, and helps the body move through recovery more efficiently. Research indicates that early physiotherapy and consistent movement can significantly reduce the overall duration of frozen shoulder by up to 30%.

Don't just wait it out; stay active and keep your shoulder moving to support your recovery.

Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is more than just a stiff and painful joint. It occurs when the connective tissue surrounding the shoulder joint becomes inflamed, thickened, and tight, leading to a progressive loss of mobility.

It's a condition that changes over time, and the way it's managed needs to change with it. The freezing stage brings increasing pain alongside stiffness, and can last 2 to 9 months. The frozen stage is where movement is most restricted, even though pain may start to settle. This stage typically lasts 4 to 12 months. The thawing stage is where the shoulder gradually loosens. This process can take 5 months to 2 years.

Risk factors include diabetes, thyroid conditions, and periods of shoulder immobility after surgery or injury. Many people don't connect these dots until the stiffness has already set in.

Physiotherapists can help with management in all stages of frozen shoulder, but are specifically most helpful in the frozen and thawing stage to improve shoulder mobility.

💪 Prevent Falls, Stay Independent

Falls are a major risk for older adults, but most can be prevented. Strength, balance, and coordination are key to maintaining mobility and confidence at home.

Simple, regular exercises help improve leg strength, stability, and posture, which reduce the likelihood of falls. Beginners should start slowly, use support, and focus on consistency.

Activities like Tai Chi or guided physiotherapy programs can further enhance postural control and reduce fall risk. Always check with your doctor or physiotherapist before starting a new exercise routine.

At Paarl Physios, we create personalized programs that help older adults move safely and confidently every day.

Stay Strong, Stay Independent

As we age, our bodies and environment can increase the risk of falls. Weak muscles and slower reflexes make it harder to recover from stumbles. Certain medications can cause dizziness or confusion, while poor lighting, loose rugs, and clutter create hidden hazards at home. Changes in vision or hearing reduce awareness of obstacles, and even small balance issues can make everyday movement riskier.

The good news is that most falls are preventable. At Paarl Physios, we help older adults improve strength, balance, and confidence so they can move safely and maintain independence at home.
