Frigyes is back!
Our osteopath returns to Belgium after working at LFC Liverpool. 'As 'Head of Osteopathy' in an international environment, I have gained quite an experience and look forward to putting my expertise at the service of Lment again,' Frigyes explains.
Here is Frigyes' account:
'It was certainly not easy to leave everything here, but when you are asked by such a club you don't say no. The request came from Jurgen Klopp himself to bring a manual-osteopathic input into the medical staff with a view to injury prevention.
It was a huge adventure with big challenges but with even bigger rewards. Working with absolute top players in a very demanding league was a great experience.
Liverpool FC but also the city itself are always going to stay in my heart. The club completely exudes the energy, the friendliness, the stubbornness, the quirkiness but above all the hospitality of the scousers in this Beatles city.
As much as I am going to miss this so much I love coming back to Belgium, to Lment. But above all, I love coming back to my family and friends.

Caroline Maes, Osteopath D.O. with more than 25 years of clinical experience, will be joining the team at LMent – Center for Osteopathy in Leuven starting January 5. She will be taking over the position of Oliva, who is leaving the practice.
To prevent hamstring injuries, optimal mobility of the pelvis, hips, and lower back is essential for maintaining proper sciatic nerve function. Elevated neurological tone in the sciatic nerve can contribute to increased pre-tension in the hamstrings, potentially predisposing them to injury when combined with sport-specific loading. The hamstrings are 'pre-loaded'.
Our colleague Frigyes Vanden Auweele will join the Royal Belgian Football Association (RBFA) from March onwards. Our osteopath will become part of the medical staff of the Red Devils in preparation for the World Cup in Mexico, the US, and Canada. With new head coach Rudi Garcia, the Red Devils face a major challenge: qualifying for the World Cup.
