About YOUR PRACTITIONER

 

 

Angela, originally from Canada, now resides in the Netherlands for the past 10 years, where she is happily married to her Dutch husband.

 

She brings a wealth of clinical experience, beginning in 1997 as a Canadian registered massage therapist. Her practice has encompassed treating a wide range of conditions, including chronic pain, neck, back, and shoulder issues, pregnancy-related muscular complaints, post-partum massage, sports injuries, and stress or occupational related conditions.

 

Angela's approach also includes holistic therapies tapping into mind, body, spirit connection for stress management.  Her 17+ years of experience in complementary therapies include Japanese subtle energy work (Reiki), a variety of massage styles & training from extensive travels, and sound healing, having trained with renowned sound healers worldwide. Her deep interest in holistic health led her to further her studies in acupuncture.

 

Angela is a graduate of the Dutch Acupuncture Academy in Amsterdam, where she completed an intensive four-year program.

She wrote her thesis on "The management of low back pain with acupuncture", where as pain conditions are an additonal special interest in her practice.

 Angela has a post-graduate training in Toyohari Japanese Acupuncture and Moxibustion. This gentle yet effective style of acupuncture involves more touch, less needle insertion, magnets, and Japanese moxibustion. This particular style would especially enhance interest in people who are sensitive or have a fear of needles.

 

Angela has a special interest in acupuncture for musculoskeletal pain, upper & lower body including low back & sciatica, as well as for fibromyalgia, headaches, women’s health (including PMS, menopause), post-partum low back complaints, sleep problems, digestive issues, stress management.

 

 

I understand that every client is unique and will listen well to personalize each treatment to meet individual needs.

 

.I am looking forward in helping you feel your best!
