Most people come in with back, neck or shoulder pain, or with knee and hip problems after sport. Tailbone pain (coccydynia) is our specialism. People travel from as far as Den Helder and Purmerend for it.
What a session looks like
A session takes 50 minutes. Most practices in the Netherlands book 25. We use the extra time for the examination and the hands-on work.
In the first session we ask about your complaint, examine you and start treatment straight away. You leave with a few exercises and a clear idea of what to expect. How many sessions you'll need differs too much per person to promise a number up front.
Referral and insurance
For most complaints you can book directly, without a GP referral. For some conditions your insurer does ask for one. Not sure? Send us a WhatsApp.
Dutch basic health insurance (basisverzekering) doesn't cover physiotherapy for most adults. Supplementary insurance (aanvullende verzekering) usually does, up to a set number of sessions per year. Check your policy before you come in, or see our prices.
