OSTEOPATHY · BRAKEL
Osteopathy with
gentle hands.
I’m Els Franssens, an osteopath since 2005. I work gently and intuitively. During a consultation, I take time to listen to your physical concerns, how you feel and what is on your mind.

FUNCTIONAL & BIODYNAMIC OSTEOPATHY
Gentle hands.
An open attention.
I practise functional and biodynamic osteopathy: a gentle, intuitive approach, attentive to what arises during the session.
Your physical experience is connected to how you feel and what you are going through. I take time to listen, adapting the session to you and your pace.
I allow an hour for an adult consultation. This gives us time to talk, for treatment and to reflect on your experience. I enjoy working with people who want to take that time and are open to an ongoing process.
ABOUT ELS
I’m Els Franssens.
I have been an osteopath since 2005. What matters deeply to me in this work is the encounter: taking the time to be present with another person.
My approach is gentle, functional and biodynamic. Intuition and attention help guide my hands, always in conversation with you.
I am currently undertaking further training in osteopathic care for babies and children, building on courses I have taken previously.
What inspires me ↗TIME FOR YOU
