Structured diagnosis and multi-modal conservative treatment for lower back pain, neck stiffness, sciatica, and radiculopathy for patients commuting from Durban North, La Lucia, and Umhlanga.
Whether your lower back pain or sciatica started after heavy deadlifts or running in Durban North, or built up gradually from long corporate hours and travel in Umhlanga Ridge, resolving radiating nerve or mechanical spine pain requires addressing both joint mechanics and protective muscle spasm. Dr Bongeka Khumalo conducts a comprehensive neurological and biomechanical examination at Spark Medical Centre in Overport.
More about this service
By combining controlled spinal mobilisation or adjustments with deep gluteal and lumbar myofascial release, sterile dry needling, and PNF rehabilitation, we help Umhlanga and Durban North patients return to pain-free work, travel, and training.

Patients often ask
Can I attend on Saturday mornings from Umhlanga or Durban North for back pain or sciatica?
Yes. Our Overport rooms at Spark Lifestyle Centre are open every Saturday from 08:00 to 15:00 with secure undercover parking and direct lift access.
What should I wear to my back or sciatica assessment?
Please wear comfortable, stretchy athletic clothing (such as shorts, leggings, or tracksuit pants and a t-shirt) so Dr Khumalo can perform leg-raise, reflex, and spinal movement tests easily.
