Comprehensive Solutions
We love what we do,
and how we do it!
Founded in 2004 in Kloof, CW Physio’s Inc. has grown from a small private practice into a multi-branch hub of physiotherapy excellence. With a team of 15 passionate physiotherapists and four locations—Hillcrest Private Hospital, Hillcrest Central, Pietermaritzburg, and Howick’s Oatlands Medical Centre—we’re proud to serve communities across KwaZulu-Natal.
What began as a solo venture by Carel Wildenboer evolved into a partnership in 2017 when Tracey-Lee Duplessisjoined the practice. Following Carel’s immigration in 2019, Demi Humphries stepped into co-ownership, bringing fresh energy while continuing the core values of family care, professionalism, and excellence.
At CW Physio’s, our mission is clear: to guide you back to a pain-free life. Whether it’s restoring mobility after injury, returning to your sport, or simply regaining everyday functionality, we walk the journey with you. Our approach goes beyond symptom relief—we focus on the root cause, using evidence-based treatments and continuous training to offer you the best possible care.
We are proud of our dynamic, skilled, and compassionate team who work collaboratively to offer specialised care for all ages and needs. From your first appointment to your final stretch, we’re here to empower you every step of the way.
Our Approach
We believe in a hands-on approach, where we spend time assessing your condition. Manual therapy and rehabilitation is focused on in your sessions.
Our physiotherapists are well-trained and highly qualified. The entire team is constantly learning and focus on continued education.
Your health and wellness is important to everyone in the CW Physio’s Team. This journey that we will embark on together may be long or short, easy or challenging – whichever it is, we strive for success and to build lasting relationships, based on mutual trust and respect.
Here to be part of your journey.
