About Lucy

Lucy Ferrao has been attending to my lower back injury for over two years, which has prevented me from unnecessary lower back surgery. Lucy was always professional, punctual, extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. Lucy was a pleasure to deal with and I wish her every success in Cape Town.

Lucy Ferrao is one of the best physiotherapists ever. I came across her after my terrible car accident that  impacted the left side arm and neck clavicle bones. After I was out of the rehabilitation I continued to see her as she assisted me with her great sessions. She offered a very open and relaxing space and always made sure that I am comfortable and addressed all issues that I would have.  Lucy gave lovely & thoughtful advice too with anything I’d ask her about and also with regards to exercises and stretches that I would need to do. She was also very willing to even do exercise videos for me when I asked. Lucy helped me understand and explained my condition to me very well and things I should avoid doing at gym. She took very good care of me as her client, I’d always feel so much lighter and refreshed after her sessions even when at times acupuncture would be needed. Lucy is very kind, warm-hearted and caring and is very knowledgeable within her field of work. I would definitely give her 10 out of 5 star ratings for her work.

I was treated by Lucy Ferrao as Life Riverfield Lodge Hospital Physiotherapist since November 2023 as a mental health patient. Lucy was so excellent in her work, showed professionalism and excellent work ethic during my stay in the hospital. Due to her excellent service I have continued to use her service outside the hospital and she even treated my son Vusumuzi Jnr (17 years) with back injury suffered from basketball games which he participated while attending St John’s College. I will recommend Lucy to anyone who want to use her services.

I have been a patient of Lucy’s for over 20 years and have found her to be professional, knowledgeable and helpful. she has treated myself, my two sons and husband for various problems over the years: Chest infections, knee rehab after ACL repair for myself, dislocated knee on several occasions for my oldest son and a torn meniscus repair for my youngest son and shoulder rehab for my husband after a b-cep tear as well as various other sports injuries, foot and back injuries. The most signifacant for me was the ongoing treatment of severe whiplash and shoulder injury following a vehicle accident. Through this treatment I have been able to avoid other medical intervention and taking of medication. I was saddened by her moving to Cape Town and wish her every success.
