How can I help in times of COVID-19?
Osteopathy is a primary contact and patient-centred healthcare discipline, that emphasises the interrelationship of structure and function of the body, facilitates the body’s innate ability to heal itself, and supports a whole-person approach to all aspects of health and healthy development, principally by the practice of manual treatment"
The main aim of an osteopathic treatment to help restore health or prevent illness by improving physiologic functioning of the body. Facilitating optimal functioning within these systems will influence the self-regulatory the immune system. An adequate immune response being essential for the body to stay or reclaim a state of health
Osteopathy is best known today for its efficacy on musculoskeletal problems, especially, low-back pain and non-specific neck pain. However, osteopathy in combination with body-centred stress coaching can help with conditions related to autonomic nervous system disorders like stress, anxiety and feelings of general malaise.
As an osteopath and body-centred stress coach with a private practice, I'm not equipped to treat COVID-19 patients but I can help those who have been infected but are considered recovered and who continue to experience symptoms after infection: muscular aches and pains, stiffness, difficulties moving about heart palpitations, chest pain, shortness of breath, post-viral fatigue syndrome, cognitive difficulties or recurring fevers.
For more information here is a extensive article on the benefits of osteopathy for recovering COVID-19 patients: "Evidence-based assessment of potential therapeutic effects of adjunct osteopathic medicine for multidisciplinary care of acute and convalescent COVID-19 patients" https://doi.org/10.1016/j.explore.2020.09.006
Be good to y'ourself and stay safe, always.

When is a Body-centred Stress Coaching treatment for you?
|
In general I recommend osteopathy when your symptoms are mainly physical, while Body-centred Stress Coaching is recommended when you have physical and non-physical symptoms, during periods of change or increased demands and after an accident or trauma.
When unsure please use the Stress Symptoms Checklist and/or the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale |
Futurizing you and your health to thrive in a fast-changing world.
As an osteopath (BSc, D.O. OSD) and Body-centred Stress Coach I specialize in helping you to cope better, feel, and stay strong from within:
Often it is overlooked that the body in or after important life changes or when you're on a journey of personal development, experiences more stress than usual and that muscle tensions, but also a neurohormonal disbalance, reduced resistance and digestive problems can occur.
Then weeks or months later you suddenly feel depleted, lack motivation, or suffer from physical problems like a blocked neck or back. You might have reoccurring colds or infections, migraines and/or unexplained psychological problems (depression, anxiety, ...) and/or behavioural complaints (being more forgetful, mood swings, become more intolerant....). In an advanced stage this can create a feeling of the body and mind not being aligned any more and/or experience symptoms for which no real clinical diagnosis can be given by regular doctors.
When you recognize these in you don't hesitate to make an appointment and I will help you back into health and find balance. I might not be able to solve your problems but I can help you to cope and feel better.
I can also help you with general complaints for which you can consult an osteopath: acute or chronic neck, shoulder and back pain, headache, pelvis, knee and foot problems etc.
As a health futurist, I'm also offering body-centred stress coaching for upcoming space tourists. Training is essential for this new and exciting experience to prepare you both physically and psychologically for space flight. These trainings consist mainly of spatial orientation training, a zero-gravity flight and flight simulation offered by specialised private astronaut trainers like Nancy Vermeulen. However, with the 3G forces, weightlessness and increased levels of anxiety, the body will experience entirely new stressors. Therefore prior and post-flight body-centred stress coaching is essential to make the most of your experience.
You have another health challenge or you're not sure if I can help you? Send me an email or call me for information and if I can not help you I will, if possible, search for a solution.
Be good to you, always.

★★★★★ Hey Tom, je bent “echt” wel een soort van wonderdokter! Deze avond begon mijn lichamelijke energie wat terug te komen en ik ontdek dat ik terug kan dansen!!! Dat ging de afgelopen 2 jaar totaal niet meer omwille van rugblokkades... Verder vielen vandaag een aantal geblokkeerde zaken op hun plaats :-)))

★★★★★ I felt heavy and uncomfortable in my own body. Tom brought me back to life and made me feel again. I feel like I'm floating, I know that I walk straighter than I have in years and I'm not in pain. I feel amazing! Thank you, Tom! If you need an osteopath in Brussels, this is the man to go to!
