Subsequently, Robert completed the master after master manual therapy at the Free University of Brussels. In addition, he has specialized in dry needling, ultrasound and occupational physiotherapy. Robert recently obtained his certificate as Craniofacial Therapist (CRAFTA®). Cranio Facial Therapy Academy is a highly specialized training in manual therapy for the treatment of pain and disorders in the head, neck, jaw and neck area (TMD/Temporo mandibular dysfunctions). Robert is also a teacher of the competence learning line for SOMT University. He supervises internships and mini-clinics for this manual therapy course.
Robert is also a professional classical singer (www.robertkuizenga.com), partly because of this, he has developed, among other things, in the field of posture, complaints in the neck, head, jaw, neck area and voice complaints.
​
Robert also works as an osteopath in practice in the same holistic medical center Amsterdam Osteo Osteopathy. The strength of osteopathy lies in its holistic approach, treating multiple systems. With a longer treatment time of up to 45 minutes, it is possible to effectively tackle the cause of the complaint. Wondering if osteopathy is something for you? Click here to go to the website Amsterdam Osteo for more information or to make an osteopathy appointment.
NB: For the time being you can book an appointment with Robert more quickly in the position of osteopath than in the position of jaw physiotherapist/manual therapist.
