A graduate from the University of Pretoria, South Africa in 2005, I have more than 10 years extensive experience treating orthopaedic and musculoskeletal disorders, post-operative conditions and sports injuries.
I enjoy treating back and neck disorders using manual mobilization, pain relief methods and motor-control retraining.
The rehabilitation of tendinopathies is another key area I enjoy treating. This includes: Achilles Tendinopathy, Tennis Elbow, Patellar Tendinopathy and others.
In addition to my physiotherapy degree I have completed a certification in Spinal Manual Therapy, as well as a certification course in Advanced Sports Rehabilitation at Curtin University of Technology, Perth, Australia. Other post-graduate courses include: STOTT Pilates Spinal, Pelvic and Scapular Stabilization Matwork & Reformer – RMR1 course, Dry Needling as well as the Neurokinetic Therapy (NKT) course.
An added qualification I have recently completed is a Diploma in Bowen Therapy. This holistic approach to manual therapy allows me to treat the client on all levels. Not only working on the musculoskeletal system, but the therapy affects the other systems that make up the body as well. It successfully shifts the body into the Parasympathetic state (PNS) which allows it to start repairing itself.

An upcoming concept in recruitment is social recruitment. Though social recruiting is not a new concept it is widely accepted by HR professionals who continue to implement it in their recruitment process.
HR managers and recruiters have started adopting a resume parser software to simplify the process of hiring the right fit. But along with this recruitment analytics solution, modern Applicant Tracking Systems can now do resume enrichment where candidate information is taken from their social media profiles to update their resumes.
With an increasing usage of social media among millennials, recruiters are posting jobs on this platform, communicating with potential candidates and engaging their employees simultaneously.
Blockchain is known for making a system secure and transparent. This is the reason why it has the potential of bringing a change in HR tech space. HR data can be easily secured with this concept, and this is especially important now when GDPR is coming!
Records can be made for employment information, training, skills, work performance etc. In case of employee verification, employers can use this information. As blockchain cannot be tampered, it is the best way to avoid fraud in HR and keeping data safe.
Increasing usage of smartphones are compelling recruiters to deliver information through mobile apps. Having such a functionality means that HR applications need to be considered.
Efforts are made to create mobile apps for every application developed by a company. As jobseekers are using their smartphones to search for jobs, organizations are making their mobile apps more user-friendly to improve candidate experience.

You can also archive employee information and save it securely. Organizations are adopting cloud-based Applicant Tracking Systems and Recruitment Marketing platforms. These solutions are becoming must-have tools for recruiters.
Another advancement in technology is Big Data. It helps HR managers to know what their candidates want, how to market their job openings to them and communicate for the same. When clubbed with other technologies, HR professionals are able to take quick decision through valuable information they get.
Data Analytics tools have contributed a lot in human resource. With predictive analytics on the plate, recruiters can judge candidate’s behavior in future. It will not only help in improving recruitment process but also ensure quality talent acquisition.
Technology can only bring a change when it is implemented correctly. These HR tech trends are all set to transform human resource and give it a new direction for attaining overall productivity.
