Physiotherapy, rehabilitation and sports recovery in Gaborone, Botswana.

Recoverychangeswhat'spossible.
We don'tjust chasesymptoms.
We worktowardmovement.
Movementis the outcome.
Select up to two areas to see what a physiotherapist commonly assesses there, and what a first appointment would look at. Most people arrive with more than one thing.
Back pain is common and, in most cases, is not caused by a single damaged structure. Assessment looks at movement, load and history together.

This guide is for orientation only. It is not a diagnosis and it does not replace an assessment. A physiotherapy assessment is what determines what is contributing to your symptoms and what to do about it.
Recovery is a sequence, not an event. This is the path most people follow with us — the shape of it stays the same, the detail is yours.
01
We start by understanding how you move, what you have been doing, and what changed. History, movement and function — before anything else.
02
Your goals set the direction. We agree what we are working towards — getting back to work, to training, to a full night's sleep — and build the pathway around it.
03
Hands-on treatment, exercise and appropriate modalities are applied to settle symptoms and give you room to move again.
04
Then the work that lasts: mobility, strength and control, loaded progressively so your body can handle what you are asking of it.
05
Back towards life, work or sport — with a plan for keeping the progress you have made.
Hold the position.
Before range or load means anything, the body has to be able to hold a position. Balance, alignment and the quiet work that stops movement falling apart.
Seven areas of practice, every one of them running at both Gaborone clinics. Which one you need is a question for the assessment, not the website.
Assessment and treatment of pain and restriction in muscles, joints and the spine — the everyday back, neck, shoulder and knee complaints that change how you move.
Injury assessment, hands-on treatment and progressive loading for athletes — from grassroots runners through to national team competition.
Structured exercise rehabilitation that rebuilds mobility, strength and control — including post-operative rehabilitation and graded return to daily activity.
Available at Molapo Crossing and African Mall.
Sports physiotherapy for athletes moving from injury management towards a confident return to activity — in the clinic, at the track and at the finish line.
The goal isn't only to heal.
It's to move again.

No two bodies, goals or recovery journeys are identical. Two people with the same painful knee can need completely different plans — which is why the assessment comes first, every time.

World Wellness Weekend — Awarded to Grace Physiotherapy Clinic · Brussels, 15–17 September 2023
From club runners to national team competition — injury management, recovery and the work of getting back to competing.
Grace Physiotherapy is a Botswana practice working across two Gaborone clinics, community outreach programmes and the touchline. The same team that runs a Tuesday morning clinic list also staffs the recovery station at the Gaborone half marathon and travels with Botswana athletes to international competition.
