It’s really lovely, after a period when my life had taken a different direction, to be able to focus fully once again on my first passion: helping people get (back) active and enjoy themselves.
After 17 years, Sophie has built up her own repertoire of methods to help patients manage their own rehabilitation as effectively as possible. She provides the right tools to help patients develop a better awareness of their bodies, learn to assess their limits more accurately, and gradually reduce the occurrence of bad habits. As a therapist, it gives me much more energy to focus on finding solutions, whilst taking into account the patient’s reality (available time and energy). So there are no quick fixes here, but rather a search for the root cause. Your input is absolutely vital to achieving a good result. Your patience and commitment to achieving a lasting result are also vital. Together, we’ll work out the best way to tackle this for you. Realistic goals, clear information and a comprehensive approach are the key elements that define my approach.
In this context, I enjoy working with a wide range of patients. As long as they have the right mindset to make a real difference. This could be after your pregnancy, during yet another bout of severe back pain, to make you more resilient as an athlete (particularly young, budding sports enthusiasts or athletes who want to take on a challenge in a responsible way) and to set you on your way, as a person, towards a life of high-quality exercise and/or sport.
Specialisms in temporomandibular disorders, deep tissue massage using fascia techniques, dry needling, postural corrections, strengthening weak links, Pilates-inspired techniques, a holistic approach to treating complaints by taking lifestyle factors into account, the incorporation of injury prevention, ….
To keep my skills up to date, I select around seven training courses each year that help me ensure I take all factors into account in my treatment. This helps me to remain critical and always be open to fresh and different approaches.
You can book an appointment at Huldenberg on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, you can find me at my old place in Tervuren :-).
