About Dr Henri Myburgh
Dr Henri Myburgh qualified with a Masters Degree in Chiropractic from the Durban University of Technology. In addition he obtained a Bachelor of Science degree in Sport Science at the University of Stellenbosch in 2009. He further successfully completed the supplementary modules of the BSc Sport Science degree to be competent to practice as a Personal Fitness Instructor.
He is very driven and passionate about sport and chiropractic.
Being a competitive sportsman himself that represented his province in
athletics and the Stellenbosch University (MATIES) 1st rugby team, he is well aware of the benefits
of an active lifestyle and also the toll that it takes on the body. According
to him chiropractic will not only optimize your potential in sports but in all
facets of life. His emphasis is based on a healthy, active lifestyle and
optimal functional spinal health. “The Chiropractic profession is unique in the
sense that it is focused on treating the CAUSE of the complaint/injury/syndrome
and not just the symptoms”. Chiropractic has grown immensely to become the
third most utilized healthcare profession following medicine and dentistry. Low
back pain has become the second most common medical complaint following a
common cold. Some of the biggest risk factors being our sedentary-type
lifestyle and occupation-related strain (computers, tablets, smart phones
etc.). The spine is a mechanical entity and needs to be managed/treated
mechanically, preferably preventatively to help decrease the risk of
back-injury and possibly slow the process of degeneration/’wear-and-tear’ –
Chiropractic can help.
His
approach involves: making an accurate diagnosis by taking a full medical case
history, physical and regional examinations followed by the incorporation of
evidence-based treatment protocols. Treatment includes: Spinal and extremity
manipulative therapy, soft tissue/trigger point therapy (dry needling, active/passive
release therapy, impulse adjusting, kinesiotaping and strapping), tendinopathies
(tendonosis, tendinitis, calcification – extracorporeal shockwave therapy), patient
education and referrals.
He owns another practice in Port Elizabeth and has been in practice there for six years. He is extremely excited and enthusiastic about the recent relocation to the Western Cape and looks forward in treating patients at his new existing practice – Somerset Chiropractic
