Directions

From the M1
Take the Grayston Drive off-ramp and turn towards Sandton (right if travelling south towards Johannesburg, left if travelling north towards Pretoria). Turn right into Linden Street. Follow linden until you are forced to take a sharp left turn to avoid entering a boomed town house complex. Continue along linden and cross over North road – at this intersection Linden becomes Edward Rubenstein Drive. Go through the security boom and after about 500m Samantha Timcke Physiotherapy will be on your right on the corner of Edward Rubenstein Drive and Tamar Street.

From Rivonia Road
Turn left into Marion Road if travelling south towards Sandton city, or right into Marion if travelling north towards Rivonia (Marion road is between Grayston Drive and the Morningside Clinic). Turn left into Edward Rubenstein drive. Go through the security boom and travel all the way down Edward Rubenstein. Samantha Timcke Physiotherapy will be on your left on the corner of Edward Rubenstein Drive and Tamar Street.

From the airport
Find the highway that takes you towards Johannesburg. Continue on this highway and you will get to the point where the highway is about 6 lanes wide - you want to be in the middle lane. Follow pointers to the n3 going to Pretoria. Travel on N3, go past the London Road off ramp and take the next off ramp - Marlboro drive off ramp. Turn left at the end of the off ramp and travel up Marlboro drive. You will come to a traffic light intersection that has a shell petrol station on both sides of the intersection - at this intersection turn right into south road. Stay on south road for quite a way. It eventually ends in a T-junction with Rivonia Road. At the T-junction turn left into Rivonia Road (you will now be travelling south towards Sandton City). Go through a traffic light where Cell C is on your left and the Morningside Clinic is on your right. Turn left into the very next road - Marion Road (if you reach the traffic lights at the intersection of Rivonia and Grayston you have gone too far). Turn first left into Edward Rubenstein Drive. Go through the security boom and travel all the way down Edward Rubenstein to number 53a (on the corner of Edward Rubenstein and Tamar Street).
