MINETTE SCHNEIDER BIOKINETIKUS TEAM
Our practice consists of five Registered Biokineticists, two Locum Biokineticists, one Biokineticist in Training and two administrative ladies.
We are a hard-working team that carries out our passion through our work as Biokineticists. We are treating numerous different conditions and people with their own challenges. That is why we know we cannot treat two people exactly the same. Therefore you can be assured that at Minette Schneider Biokineticist each patient’s condition will be treated individually.
The practise was established in 2007 in Secunda.
During 2010 we further expanded the practice with the introduction of a heated pool facility to further enhance our rehabilitation through our specialized hydrotherapy techniques.
In November 2018 the practice further expanded to our own new facility, 5 Nicol Street, Secunda.
A year later, in November 2019 we bought a Isokinetic strength testing machine The Humac Norm Cybex which is every Biokineticist’s dream piece of equipment to have in their practise. We are very proud of our Isokinetic (Cybex) machine. There are only a few machines in the country. All scientific research has been done on the Cybex in 2018-2021.

Passionate about:
- My passion for Biokinetics started when I was still at school and very involved in participating in sport. My love for people, sport and working with different people made my decision very easy to become a Biokinetisist.
- As a mom of 4 kids my passion also expanded to pregnant ladies during pre-and post-natal stages and working with children.
