Your body
restored with
intention.
Welcome! I’m Lania Smith (MPhysio), a physiotherapist in Durbanville with a special interest in dance and sports rehabilitation, Pilates, and integrative, person-centred pain care. I am committed to creating a safe and supportive environment where patients feel heard, understood, and actively involved in their recovery. I work with people experiencing injury and persistent pain, taking a whole-person approach that considers both physical and lifestyle factors. My treatment is personalised, supportive, and evidence-based, combining education, hands-on care and movement-based rehabilitation. I offer both in-person and online consultations.
