Do I need a referral from my (general) practitioner?

You do not need a referral for physiotherapy, pelvic physiotherapy and manual therapy or personal training. However, a referral is required to get reimbursed by your insurance company for a ‘chronic indication’, for example rehabilitation after surgery.

Our therapists are eminently qualified to make an adequate diagnosis. In case of doubt, the physiotherapist will refer you to your (general) practitioner or a specialist from our network.

We recommend that you inform your doctor that you are being treated by one of our therapists.

Evidence

No six-week transformations or quick fixes, but training and therapy for long-term health, using the best available evidence in science.

Based

Our approach is based on you, our client. Symptoms such as pain are often the reason for an appointment. However, what is the actual problem and what do you want to be able to do again? The answer to those questions is usually broader than the physical approach of a conventional physiotherapist and/or trainer. Sometimes there is no quick fix and the solution isn’t sexy. Think of it as a change in behavior.

Practice

Based on our expertise, we try to get to the core of your complaint(s) and find the most suitable solution.

Unfortunately we cannot offer any guarantees. Anyone who claims otherwise often only achieves short-term results and lacks transparency. We help you take control of your situation. We need you for that.
