After
the
birth
of
our
second
child,
I
suffered
from
severe
neck
pain
caused
mainly
by
stress
but
also
insufficient
sleep
and
lack
of
sport
/
activation.
I
figured
that
I
would
need
professional
help
with
this
problem
including
manual
therapy
but
also
guidance
on
how
to
prevent
this
from
reappearing.
I
chose
"Fysiotherapie
OpMaat"
to
support
me
here
primarily
because
it
was
close
to
where
I
live.
The
online
form
to
make
an
appointment
was
easy
to
navigate
and
I
promptly
received
the
confirmation
for
my
appointment
(I
will
say,
however,
that
I
am
"aanvullend
verzekeerd"
so
that
I
didn't
need
a
"doorwijzing"
from
my
GP).
Thereafter,
I
got
access
to
an
online
portal
where
I
could
fill
a
detailed
questionnaire
which
guided
the
initial
appointment
which
was
one
part
discussing
the
medical
history
/
current
problems
("anamnesis")
and
one
part
an
actual
treatment
including
a
physical
examination
of
the
affected
musculature.
The
appointments
I
had
were
with
Danique
who
did
an
excellent
job
in
guiding
the
anamnesis
but
also
asking
the
right
questions
to
further
narrow
down
where
the
pain
was
precisely
located
and
which
muscles
were
involved
and
affected.
During
our
conversations,
Danique
was
always
friendly
and
empathetic.
Already
the
first
manual
therapy
relieved
a
lot
of
tension
in
neck
musculature
and
the
exercises
she
taught
me
during
the
first
session
further
alleviated
the
pain
over
the
coming
days.
Of
note,
Danique
also
located
additional
muscle
groups
around
my
scapulae
that
were
affected
and
contributed
to
the
overall
pain.
Performing
exercises
on
these
muscles
expedited
my
recovery.
I
had
two
additional
appointments
in
the
coming
weeks
during
which
we
optimised
the
exercises
I
could
do
at
home
but
also
performed
manual
therapy
to
release
the
remaining
tension
in
the
affected
muscles.
By
following
her
advices
and
performing
the
exercises
she
proposed,
I
am
still
pain-free
to
date.
In
summary,
I
can
fully
recommend
Fysiotherapie
OpMaat
and
especially
Danique
who
is
a
really
nice
and
empathetic
therapist!
