About me

In 2024, I started the Classical Shiatsu training at the Shiatsu Academy Netherlands. I am currently in my final year of the program, and I hope to become a certified Shiatsu therapist in 2027.
Alongside my Shiatsu practice, I work as a soil consultant at an engineering consultancy dedicated to creating a better living environment. I really value the combination of these two fields. Shiatsu therapy allows me to bring together my strong intuition, creativity, extensive knowledge of health, and passion for nature and the seasons in a truly beautiful profession.
I am driven by a curiosity about life and feel a responsibility to contribute to a better world, both in terms of nature and the environment, as well as health and society. As a result, I have gained knowledge, experiences, and insights in many different areas throughout my life, and I have learned important life lessons along the way.
During a difficult period in my life, when I was struggling with myself and experiencing various health issues, Shiatsu came into my life. I was immediately fascinated by its holistic view of health and its comprehensive approach to treating physical and emotional complaints. It also made a great deal of sense to me. Step by step, with the help of Shiatsu and Do-In (meridian stretches), I improved my physical and mental-emotional health and gradually integrated these practices fully into my daily life.
