Gary Arenson [ Managing Director ]
After running a private practice, Gary quickly realised the high prevalence of work related injuries. He left the clinical environment to pursue a solution, and the Ergotherapy Solutions corporate training program was developed as the answer. Working with many blue chip companies, the need was then highlighted for a chair that would better meet user demands, and Gary then designed and developed the Get One range of seating. With representation throughout South Africa and now also in Australia, Gary is passionate about helping people to spend their work time more comfortably and contentedly by sitting on a Get One!

Tracey Palay [ JHB Consultant ]
Tracey Palay graduated from Wits and has worked in many different spheres of physiotherapy. A back injury 3 years ago necessitated surgery, and an interest in products that would help others address back pain and ways to reduce work-related back injuries. Tracey is based in Johannesburg and consults with physios and chiropractors, as well to organisations and individuals.
Angela Hendricks [ Cape Town Sales Manager ]
With a life long dream of being a physiotherapist, Angela qualified in 2002 from the University of Cape Town. She then relocated to Port Elizabeth for her year of community service before working in a private practice. While working in private practice, she treated many patients who were suffering from work related injuries due to poor ergonomics. This sparked a new interest to help people in a different way. By correcting patient ergonomics she was now treating the cause, not just the symptoms. Angela joined Ergotherapy Solutions in early 2006 and now manages the Western Cape and Eastern Cape areas.
Pippa Bowden [ JHB Ergonomic trainer and Consultant ]
Pippa qualified as a physiotherapist from UCT and then practised for 8 years predominantly in an outpatient private practice seeing general orthopaedic conditions and sports injuries. She then worked in the pharmaceutical industry for 5 years as a medical representative. She joined Ergotherapy in mid 2008 and is now our Johannesburg based ergonomic trainer and consultant.
