The Knysna
Main Reason for Developing the Knysna
The creation of "The Knysna" was driven by a deep understanding of what chiropractors truly need in their day-to-day practice. After extensive market research, it became evident that the existing chiropractic tables lacked several essential features. Turaco Chiropractic Equipment sought to bridge this gap by developing "The Knysna," a table that integrates these crucial elements into a single, high-quality product. The vision for "The Knysna" is closely aligned with Turaco’s overall mission: to produce well-crafted, reliable, and aesthetically pleasing chiropractic tables that meet and exceed the expectations of practitioners worldwide.
Aims and Goals for the Future Product and Development
The primary goal for "The Knysna" is to become a product that chiropractors are proud to own and use. By incorporating advanced features like drop pieces and aesthetic design elements, the table is not just functional but also visually appealing. Moving forward, Turaco Chiropractic Equipment is committed to continually refining and upgrading "The Knysna" and other products in their lineup, ensuring that they stay at the forefront of innovation in the chiropractic equipment market.

History and Background
The development of "The Knysna" began in August 2023 and is set to culminate in its official launch in September 2024. The process involved meticulous planning and coordination, especially since the development team was split between Johannesburg and Cape Town. Despite the challenges, the team succeeded in bringing "The Knysna" from a basic concept to a fully functioning, market-ready product. Initially, the table lacked advanced features like drop pieces and High-Low functions, but through careful development, these were integrated, resulting in a superior product.
