Meet Fouza Abrahams

Fouza's path into physiotherapy was shaped by a genuine curiosity about how the body moves, heals, and adapts — and a deep motivation to help people return to the activities and roles that matter most to them, whether that's playing sport, picking up a child, returning to work, or simply walking without fear.

She completed her BSc in Physiotherapy at the University of Cape Town (UCT) in 2018, graduating with a strong foundation in musculoskeletal, neurological, and cardiorespiratory rehabilitation. In 2019, she completed her compulsory community service year, working across busy public healthcare settings where she treated a wide range of conditions and built the clinical resilience that still shapes her practice today.

That experience — treating high patient volumes with limited resources — taught Fouza to prioritise what matters clinically: a clear diagnosis, an honest conversation, and a treatment plan the patient can actually follow. In 2021, she opened her own private practice in Walmer Estate to offer exactly that kind of care, on her own terms, with the time and attention each patient deserves.

Since then, Fouza has built a practice around evidence-based rehabilitation, hands-on treatment, and long-term relationships with her patients — many of whom return for new concerns years after their first visit, because they trust the process and the person guiding it.
