Marinus Du Preez is a physiotherapist based in Zetland, NSW. He works from Shop 3, 6 Rose Valley way, Zetland NSW 2017. If you’re dealing with pain, stiffness, or trouble moving the way you want to, this is the kind of support physio is meant for.
Marinus helps people with day to day aches and also issues that build up over time. That can include sore muscles and tight areas, problems with how joints move, and pain that shows up when you sit, stand, work, or move around. In many cases, the goal is simple: get you moving more comfortably and help you build habits that support your body between appointments.
Sessions usually involve physical therapy support plus an exercise plan that fits your routine. You might also get hands on treatment, including joint mobilisation and soft tissue massage, depending on what your body needs that day. Posture correction is another part of the work, because lots of discomfort links back to how we hold ourselves during everyday life.
Over time, the care focuses on making things feel steadier and more predictable. You’ll be encouraged to understand what’s driving the problem, not just push through it. At times that means changing how you move, but it can also mean learning small adjustments that help you cope better day to day.
Marinus also brings a calm, practical approach to each appointment. Physiotherapy can feel a bit different if you’ve never had it before, so he keeps things clear and grounded. The aim is to help you feel comfortable with the plan, whether you’re coming in for a short block of care or looking for ongoing support while you rebuild strength and movement.
Languages spoken include English and Afrikaans, which can make it easier if you prefer to talk in either language.
If you want to discuss a specific problem, the best place to start is a physio assessment. From there, Marinus can work with you on treatment and exercise prescription, with hands on care like joint mobilisation and soft tissue massage where needed, plus practical posture correction strategies to help you keep improving.
