When you meet Juané, you quickly sense her genuine belief in everyone’s ability to heal. She approaches each patient with a nurturing spirit, creating a space where you feel both respected and heard. You won’t find her rushing through sessions; she values the process and takes the time needed to truly understand your unique situation.

From the moment you step in, her method is both thorough and thoughtful. She goes deep into understanding your injury, looking closely at how it happened and what structures are involved. Her main focus is on easing your pain and helping you heal in the best way possible through correct positioning and movement. As your rehabilitation journey unfolds, she tailors her approach to fit your specific lifestyle and goals, ensuring you’re back to doing what you love. Plus, she shares helpful strategies to prevent future issues, always with a focus on functionality.

Juané’s expertise spans neurologic rehabilitation, managing sports injuries, and handling chronic conditions like arthritis and carpal tunnel. She blends a keen precision with creative thinking, working hand in hand with you to find the most effective treatment options and ways to adapt. She’s all about those “small wins” along the way, recognizing their importance in your journey to recovery.

“Healing is personal, and so is my care – restoring your hands to allow you to return to your whole self.”

She firmly believes that healing is a deeply personal experience, and her care reflects that philosophy. When you leave her practice, you’ll often find yourself feeling not just safe and satisfied, but also a renewed sense of joy, perhaps inspired by some of the fun, creative exercises you did together. Her own practice of yoga enhances her understanding of the mind-muscle connection, allowing her to provide an extensive, integrated treatment plan. With Juané, you’re not just healing; you’re working toward reclaiming your life.

Hi I'm 75 years old. Broke my wrist 2025, after 3 ops and 67 days in plaster. Dr said my hand is terrible. I never visit a phisio but start on my own to use my hand. I started cooking, do washing and drive my car. I can't hold anything in my right hand but I set myself a goal to overcome this. I google hand therapist and look at their excerize and made a booking with them, and can just say the treatment just enspire me to go on. Thanks Juane

I am truly grateful that I finally understand what was wrong with my hands. Before starting hand therapy, I struggled a lot — my fingers were extremely tight every night, which made it difficult to sleep. I was even afraid to go to sleep at times, and I avoided using water, including bathing, because of the discomfort and pain. Since starting the hand exercises, everything has improved significantly. I am now able to manage my condition much better, and the tightness and pain have reduced. My quality of life has improved, and I no longer fear everyday activities. I would like to sincerely thank Dr. Juane Visser for the excellent care and guidance. Hand therapy has made a real difference in my life. I hope my experience encourages others with similar problems to seek help and not suffer in silence. Thato Motseoakhumo
