More About Me

Hi, I’m Charlize, a passionate and dedicated chiropractor who completed my MTech Chiropractic degree at the University of Johannesburg in 2019.

From the beginning of my career, I had the privilege of learning from some of the best in the field. I worked alongside Dr Mike Busschau, a highly skilled sports injury specialist, and Dr Robyn Conchar, who focuses on pregnancy and paediatric care, at Beboni Chiropractic Health Centre. Their mentorship gave me deep insight into caring for both athletes and young families.

I then joined Greenstone Family Chiropractic, working with Dr Kim Branco, where my love for family-focused care truly grew. I spent time observing and learning how to treat patients of all ages, understanding their unique needs at every stage of life.

In 2021, I relocated to Cape Town and joined Atlantic Spine and Joint, working closely with Dr Megan Hope, who specializes in treating pregnant women and is certified in the Webster Technique. During this time, I deepened my knowledge in pregnancy care and how to support expecting mothers with confidence and compassion.

My greatest joy is serving families, whether it’s helping a newborn sleep better, supporting a pregnant mom through her journey, or relieving pain for someone who’s been struggling for years.

What sets me apart is my holistic approach to chiropractic care. That means I don’t just treat the spine, I look at the whole person:
• Body – posture, movement, physical discomfort
• Mind – stress, emotional well-being, lifestyle
• Spirit – peace, purpose, and inner balanceI believe true health goes beyond pain relief. My goal is to help you and your family thrive in body, mind, and spirit, so you can live with freedom, energy, and joy.
