Osteopathy
What is Osteopathy?
Osteopathy is a manual therapy focused on restoring and maintaining the body’s natural mobility and balance. An osteopath views the body as an integrated whole, where all structures and functions influence one another. The goal of osteopathy is not only to treat symptoms but also to prevent future issues by strengthening the body’s self-healing capabilities.
At Praktijk Brouwersgracht, our osteopath, Richard van Leeuwen, thoroughly examines the root cause of your complaints. He looks beyond the area of pain and focuses on restoring the underlying balance within the body. Using manual techniques, he enhances the mobility of joints, muscles, connective tissue, and organs.
Prevention and Treatment
In addition to addressing existing complaints, Richard offers preventive treatments aimed at identifying and addressing movement restrictions early, thereby preventing future discomfort. Common complaints such as back pain, digestive issues, headaches, and other physical ailments can often be effectively alleviated or resolved.
Quality and Registration
Richard van Leeuwen is registered with the Dutch Federation for Osteopathy (NOF), ensuring compliance with the highest standards of osteopathy. The NOF registry guarantees the safety and professionalism of osteopaths. An independent complaints procedure is available should you have any questions or concerns about a treatment.
Reimbursement
Osteopathy is covered under supplementary health insurance plans. The level of reimbursement depends on your insurance package. Since Richard is registered with the NOF, treatments are recognized by almost all health insurers.
