                        Physiotherapists

                        Our physiotherapists are passionate about helping people get back on their feet, be it in the hospital or the community. For more information on rehabilitation services in a rural area, see http://www.ruralrehab.co.za

                        Chief Physiotherapist
                        Karen is another UCT graduate. She has wide ranging experience including rural hospital work (including a stint at Zithulele in 2008), private physiotherapy and hospital practice in the UK. She also has a BA in Christian Ministry, majoring in community development, and returned to Zithulele in January 2009 to put her knowledge to use! She joined the leagues of the working moms in 2011 with her first child.

                        Laura is a South African, with a hint of an Australian accent. Having studied and worked in Oz, she has returned to South Africa. She volunteered at Zithulele in 2010, but was formally employed in 2011. Her enthusiasm and friendliness help keep us all feeling positive about making a difference here.

                        Jenna qualified at UCT and is doing her community service year. Helping people regain lost function is her passion - and an important job in a part of the world where physical capability may impact on survival! Away from work, she enjoys the outdoors, travel and sport, as well as listening to music and learning about other cultures.
