About me

Jaco graduated from the Durban University of Technology in 2015 with a Masters Degree in Chiropractic, completing his Masters dissertation on the Evidence Based Treatment of Neck Pain.

Jaco has over 10 years experience working with a variety of patients, ranging from professional athletes and semi-professional sports teams to the whole family, treating conditions from sporting injuries to spinal pain, headaches and sciatica. His scope of practice includes spinal manipulation and mobilisation, extremity manipulation and mobilisation, dry needling, trigger point therapy, instrument assisted soft tissue mobilisation, kinesio-taping, exercise prescription and rehabilitation, pain management and patient education.

Jaco recently underwent a 3 year process of becoming a Credentialed MDT Practitioner (Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy), becoming one of only 250 Chiropractors internationally to have obtained this qualification. The McKenzie Method� of Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy� (MDT) is an internationally researched and acclaimed system for the assessment and management of spinal and extremity musculoskeletal disorders. It is a comprehensive approach based on robust scientific evidence and focuses on the patient and their potential to self manage and recover to their previous level of function.

When not working or studying, Jaco enjoys spending time with his wife and young daughter, playing golf, staying fit, and socialising with friends over a good braai.
