Our body and mind regularly need relaxation. When we do not rest sufficiently, tension builds up, which can lead to fatigue, muscle pain or ultimately burnout. Therapeutic massage helps the body activate its own recovery process.
As physiotherapists, we know exactly how the structures and fibres of muscles run. This allows us to tailor a massage to your specific complaints: classical massage, deep tissue massage or myofascial techniques. Underlying problems are recognised and incorporated into the treatment.
Therapeutic massage is available to everyone. Whether you are recovering from an injury, suffering from chronic muscle tension or simply in need of relaxation: the treatment is fully customised to you.
Relaxing massage of the entire musculature to stimulate blood flow, reduce muscle tension and bring the body to rest.
Targeted techniques that work deeper into the muscle layers, ideal for chronic muscle tension, knots and persistent pain points.
Treatment of the connective tissue layers around muscles and joints. Effective for restricted mobility, scars and tension patterns in the fascia.
Therapeutic massage can be combined with physiotherapy treatment, dry needling or exercise therapy for optimal results.
We discuss your complaints and wishes. Where is the tension? What do you want to achieve? Based on this, we choose the most suitable massage technique.
The massage is fully tailored to your complaints and body type. Pressure and technique are continuously adjusted based on your feedback.
After the treatment, the therapist gives advice on how to prevent tension and how to support your recovery at home.

Answers to the most common questions about Therapeutic Massage
Therapeutic massage focuses on reducing muscle tension, pain and stiffness as a result of complaints or stress. Sports massage is more specifically aimed at performance improvement, muscle recovery and injury prevention in athletes. Both are carried out at our practice by a physiotherapist.

“Kind and attentive man, even though physio massages do hurt a little of course. Knows when something is beyond his scope — such as a herniated disc that cannot be resolved through physiotherapy — and is honest about it. Great guy!”
“Due to my ADHD I find it very difficult to keep up with exercises at home. In the past I had become enormously frustrated with physiotherapy and had almost given up. Thanks to Menno I have regained that confidence. He is very good at keeping it fun and challenging and is able to work around my limitations. Because of that I genuinely enjoy going to him and I am seeing noticeable results!”
“I am so glad to have found Menno! He thinks along really well, has a lot of knowledge and I can usually get an appointment quickly. Highly recommended!”
