Meet Your Chiropractor

Dr. Johan Prangley

Dr. Johan Prangley attended high school in Durban before studying at the Durban University of Technology, where he graduated with a Master's in Chiropractic in 2010. He was also awarded the Mario Milani Internship Award from the Allied Health Professions Council of South Africa.

After graduating, he worked in Windhoek, Namibia, for 15 months before joining Bellville Chiropractic as an associate in November 2011. In November 2013, he took ownership of Bellville Chiropractic, and in February 2015 he acquired a second practice, Tygervalley Chiropractic. Both practices have since been taken over.

In 2026, Dr. Prangley relocated to Malmesbury and established Swartland Chiropractic — providing safe and effective care throughout the region, serving towns such as Darling, Moorreesburg, Riebeek Kasteel, Riebeek West and Yzerfontein. Patients also travel from neighbouring West Coast communities including Vredenburg, Langebaan, Velddrif, Hopefield and Piketberg.

Sports & Performance

A special interest in athletes

Dr. Prangley has a particular interest in treating athletes and sports conditioning. He has worked with the Namibian Ladies National Hockey Team ahead of the World Cup in Germany, and served as Chiropractor and Conditioning Coach for the Namibian National Rugby Team in preparation for the 2011 Rugby World Cup in New Zealand.

He gained valuable experience working alongside Craig White — former conditioning coach for Wales, Ireland, and the British & Irish Lions — and Chris Brown, former conditioning coach for Pukke, Leopards, Kenyan 7s and USA 7s.

His involvement also includes Collegians Rugby Club in Durban, United Rugby Club in Windhoek, and Windhoek High School (2011 Super League Champions). In private practice he has worked closely with athletes across all ages and disciplines, helping them enhance performance and recover from injuries.
