About the practice

Physiotherapy
with purpose &
personal attention

Mandy Gossip qualified with a BSc in Physiotherapy from the University of Cape Town in 1995 and has since built over 28 years of clinical experience spanning elite sports, orthopaedics, paediatrics, and private practice.

After more than a decade at Northcliff NHC Medical Centre — treating junior Lions rugby players and working alongside a junior dance studio — Mandy established Northcliff Physiotherapy as a home-based private practice in Randburg.

The philosophy is simple: a calmer setting produces better outcomes. Her Northcliff practice was founded on the belief that a tranquil, personal environment benefits the recovery of Johannesburg's often overstretched patients as much as the physiotherapy itself.

Special interest in cervical spine, TMJ dysfunction, and post-operative care for orthopaedic and TMJ patients.

Your path
to recovery

1
Assessment
A thorough clinical assessment to understand your history, movement patterns, and the root cause of your condition — not just the symptoms.
2
Diagnosis
A clear, honest diagnosis with plain-language explanation of what's happening in your body and what needs to change.
3
Treatment
Hands-on physiotherapy using evidence-based techniques tailored to your specific condition, body, and goals.
4
Home Programme
A personalised exercise programme to reinforce treatment between sessions and ensure lasting recovery, not temporary relief.
Treatment techniques

Evidence-based
modalities

Mandy draws on a broad toolkit of physiotherapy techniques, selecting what is most appropriate for each individual patient and condition.

Dry Needling
Trigger point release using fine needles to reduce muscle tension and pain at the source.
Myofascial Release
Sustained manual pressure to release restrictions in the fascia and restore movement.
Joint Mobilisation
Skilled passive movement techniques to restore joint range and reduce stiffness.
Strapping & Taping
Functional taping to support injured structures and facilitate optimal movement patterns.
Dynamic Compression
Sequential compression therapy for post-workout recovery and post-operative lymphatic drainage.
Therapeutic Exercise
Targeted strengthening and mobility programmes prescribed and progressed for each patient.
Suction Therapy
Gentle suction-assisted treatment for infant chest congestion — one of few private practitioners offering this.
Patient Education
Understanding your condition and how to self-manage it is an integral part of every treatment plan.
Postural Assessment
Identifying and addressing the postural habits and ergonomic factors driving your pain.
