Our history.....if you need to know
Kinetic concepts initially developed in conjunction with a medical centre in Johannesburg. Soon after the start of the business, we expanded to a magnificent facility surrounded by Koi ponds and beauty therapists. The business grew from a morning only option at the medical facility, to a full day (and well into the evening) business.
Our very personalised modalities and absolutly unique resistance techniques which tailored every movement to your needs and restrictions, made us a sought after high end service which changed peoples lives. Our customers were down to earth, magnificent 'partners' in our business and this why we continued to grow. Our staff were unreal and remained as friends to this day - Many of whom have built their own businesses in the field back In SA.
We expanded again and amalgamated our services within a secondary school in Johannesburg. Our services expanded to include a vision for the school curriculum (explained below) and a complete educational programme for secondary schools - the first of its kind in SA. This integrated academic, physical conditioning and participation components into the curriculum and resulted in one of the most successful eras in the schools History.
Our move to Australia saw Heidi Continue with the business from our home whilst I moved away from the field to explore other options. Heidi has subsequently grown the business into a successful practice, being sure to retain the personalised service so unique to her and her personality.
The choice for me to return to the business has been available for years but other commitments curtailed the capacity to advance this option. However, with the advent of the great 2020 debacle, my return was inevitable. With this in mind, our intention is to grow the business again.
Our lasting commitment to keeping the culture of the business as a very personal, caring destination for all persons, remains paramount. We welcome you all!
With over 10 years of experience at a secondary school level (teaching, training and coaching) Bob has developed a wealth of understanding of youngsters and their ambitions / sports goals and physical challenges and limitations. His passion and love for the development of young people was highlighted by the programme developed at secondary school level.
The introduction of a Sports Science focused curriculum elevated the understanding of the human body, and the skills required for a career in the field. It further escalated the value of physical conditioning through integrating of the pupils' marks into the year results - A first for SA.
The success of this programme was a capacitated extramural schedule, a rise in our sports teams' levels to new competitive levels, and the creation of a base of knowledge for students seeking to enter a field strongly focused on the human body.
Heidi and I have over 40 years of combined experience across an extensive array of areas, conditions and scenarios. Our advice, analysis and assessment of our clients' needs span across every conceivable element. Our experience allows us to view each clients' situation with an entirely holistic approach.
Our dovetailing experience across every age group allows us to treat and advise accurately and whilst some cases will always remain unique, the one element you cannot downplay in the treatment of conditions, is experience. It's this element that gives us the confidence to take on all customers who share our culture.
We pride ourselves on a unique partnership with each other (Heidi is always the boss and i am always the worker) and our clients (which soon convert to friends).
We look forward to helping you achieve your goals with us.
