About Dr Michaela Botha
Chiropractor, crossfit athlete, and lifelong sports lover — Dr Michaela Botha brings both clinical training and personal passion to every patient who walks through the door at MKB Chiropractic in Randburg.
Dr Michaela Botha has always lived in an active body. Growing up competing in hockey, waterpolo, tennis, and gymnastics, she developed a deep appreciation for what the human body is capable of — and what it needs to stay at its best.
That early sporting life planted a seed. Watching how injuries, alignment, and spinal health affected performance and everyday comfort led her to pursue chiropractic as a career. She completed her Masters Degree in Chiropractic and has since built a practice in Randburg that reflects her own values: hands-on, drug-free, and deeply personalised care for every patient.
Today, Dr Botha is still as active as ever — you'll find her at the crossfit box most days. That personal commitment to an active lifestyle shapes the way she approaches patient care. She understands the demands of sport, the frustrations of injury, and the desire to keep moving well at every stage of life.
Whether she's working with a Randburg family bringing their children in for the first time, a desk worker dealing with persistent neck tension, or an athlete managing a training niggle, Dr Botha's approach is always the same: listen first, assess carefully, and treat with skill and purpose.
Dr Botha's sporting background isn't just part of her story — it directly informs how she works with active patients. She knows what it feels like to push your body, to compete, and to want to get back to doing what you love as quickly as possible.
