Our working method
Attention exercise and repetition
Attention, repetition and practice
A body posture is very personal and shows who you are. The way in which you build your joints and spine gives you or does not give you freedom of movement and determines in which balance your muscles work together. By consciously analyzing your postures, daily life or work posture, you discover how you can use your body with efficient muscle tension, which means you experience fewer complaints.
Stress is a normal emotion
Stress makes you alert, keeps you sharp, increases your performance and can give you a wonderful feeling. If stress lasts too long, tension patterns can develop that cause you to experience pain and become restless, agitated, forgetful, depressed or anxious. You can change this by becoming aware of what gives you stress and by feeling what kind of reactions this gives in your body. We use stress measurements for this and provide relaxation and breathing training to prevent stress complaints.
What moves you?
Many people unconsciously use the wrong muscles and joints, resulting in pain and functional limitations. For example, they use their neck and shoulder muscles too much instead of their arm and back muscles. As a result, pain, stiffness and discomfort arise. Walking, bending, lifting and all kinds of work activities sometimes do not happen properly. We examine how you use your body and with a muscle tension meter we can measure whether you are using the right muscles. We then teach you to use the right muscles by giving advice and biofeedback training.
Helping hands

Sometimes vertebrae or joints are blocked. Sens moves youTherapists can also use manual techniques to help with this. They use mobilization techniques, massages and/or craniosacral and visceral techniques to speed up your recovery.
Measuring is knowing
Nothing is as difficult as influencing behavior. Look at a posture that you have always adopted or movements that you always make in a certain way. How can you learn to feel that, if you perform them differently, you have less muscle tension? We work with a muscle tension meter that makes it clear whether you are already using the right muscles or whether you need advice and training to use them differently. In addition, we make Sens moves you use of the Emwave heart coherence meter. Research has shown that the pattern of your heart rhythm reflects the state of your emotions and the functioning of your nervous system. This way we can determine how high your stress level is and offer you good advice and exercises depending on that.
