Areas of expertise
Osteopathy primarily focuses on identifying the underlying cause of your complaints. With an accurate diagnosis, we can initiate an effective treatment and provide you with appropriate advice. Each of our osteopaths has their own specialization and approach, yet they work together in a complementary way through one central file.
What is Osteopathy ?
Osteopathy is a primary contact and patient-centred healthcare discipline, that emphasises the interrelationship of structure and function of the body, facilitates the body’s innate ability to heal itself, and supports a whole-person approach to all aspects of health and healthy development, principally by the practice of manual treatment.

Method 'De Bakker'
From this evolutionary–embryological perspective, the body is viewed as an integrated whole in which organs, connective tissue, joints, fluid dynamics, and the nervous system constantly interact. Disturbances at one level can have consequences elsewhere.
Osteopathy for Babies
Babies go through an enormous amount of development during their first months of life. Sometimes pregnancy, birth or sensory processing do not go entirely smoothly, causing a baby to experience tension, discomfort or functional issues. Osteopathy for babies offers a gentle, safe and evidence-informed way to support these kinds of problems.
Fasciatherapy
Fascia therapy is a respectful, gentle manual therapy that responds to the body's needs and does not use manipulations. It focusses mainly on the connective tissues (the fascia). Indication: back- and neck problems. Muscle sourness and fatigue.
