Manual therapy at Mind Your Motion
Manual therapy focuses on problems with movement and musculoskeletal pain, including neck, back, shoulder and headache complaints. We first assess what limits you and whether manual therapy is appropriate. Treatment may combine clear advice, exercises and—when indicated—joint mobilisation or manipulation. The aim is not simply to ‘crack’ a joint, but to help you move and function more comfortably.
Jaw physiotherapy and craniofacial therapy in Amsterdam
Pain or stiffness around the jaw, face, head or neck can affect eating, speaking, yawning and sleeping. We assess the jaw joint, chewing muscles, neck and relevant daily habits. Treatment is conservative and may include education, self-management, exercises and manual techniques. When needed, we coordinate with your dentist, GP, ENT specialist or another healthcare professional.
Physiotherapy for pelvic and pelvic girdle complaints
Pain around the pelvis, tailbone, pubic bone, lower back or buttock can arise during or after pregnancy, after injury, or without a clear cause. We assess movement, load, strength and the activities that matter to you. Treatment may include education, gradual exercise and hands-on techniques, tailored to your situation. If pelvic-floor symptoms require specialist care, we will advise you on the appropriate next step.
Dry needling in Amsterdam
Dry needling may be used as one part of physiotherapy when muscle-related pain or tension contributes to your symptoms. A thin, sterile needle is placed into selected muscles after examination and with your consent. It is not suitable for everyone and is never a stand-alone promise of recovery; we combine it with advice, movement and exercises where appropriate.

Voice and Vocal Care for speakers and singers
Voice problems can involve more than the vocal folds alone. Breathing, posture, jaw, neck and muscle tension may also influence how speaking or singing feels. Robert Kuizenga combines his work as a manual and orofacial physiotherapist with professional classical singing experience. Assessment and treatment are tailored to the individual and, when appropriate, coordinated with an ENT specialist, speech and language therapist, vocal coach or singing teacher.
