About Rebalance Massage

My name is Sander Hoeksma, and I am the founder of Rebalance Massage Praktijk. I give professional and holistic massage therapy, focused on healing people from their emotional stress, trauma, and blockages. My aim is to help people through the power of touch while being present and aware of someone's personal story, body and health.

My journey as a holistic therapist began 16 years ago when I met a Māori healer. He opened my mind to body energy in a time when I was suffering from loss and grieving. It deeply inspired me to combine his teachings with my medical knowledge and help release pain in others.

I have a passion for the human anatomy and studied physiotherapy. To broaden my knowledge even further, I then immersed myself in the knowledge of certain specifications and obtained multiple diplomas (sport massage, personal trainer, fitness trainer and Pilates trainer) and certificates (trigger point therapy, orthopedic rehabilitation).

And now I am the proud owner of Rebalance, guiding people back to balance and help slow down without losing their edge.

Joel

Elite Massage Therapist
Hi, I’m Joel. Training and movement have always been a big part of my life. I have used massage and the healing of touch to restore and heal after long and many sessions. It has also helped me to deal with injuries. I have been trained as a massage therapist in both Sweden and Thailand.

I have been a circus acrobatics and gymnastics coach all of my adult life. This has helped me to get a unique perspective on the body and its needs.I’m looking forward to meeting you and see how I can help you with your goals and your needs.

Leonardo

Pro Massage Therapist
I hold a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in Osteopathy from Buckinghamshire New University, a field rooted in the holistic understanding of the body as an interconnected system. After completing my studies, I successfully established and ran my own practice in Milan, focusing on patient-centered care.

Currently, I am pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Physiotherapy at the European School of Physiotherapy in Amsterdam. As part of my training, I completed my first internship at SGCP in Nepal, the country's leading center for the treatment of children with Cerebral Palsy. My daily work at SGCP has been incredibly rewarding, offering me invaluable experience in pediatric care.

Additionally, I volunteered at the Burn Hospital in Kirtipur, where I gained hands-on experience in orthopedic approaches and treating complex scar and burn injuries. I have also worked with pregnant patients to help alleviate pain during pregnancy and provide comprehensive support for both pre-birth and post-birth care.

My diverse background in osteopathy, ongoing studies in physiotherapy, and hands-on experience across different therapeutic settings make me a dedicated and adaptable therapist, ready to meet your needs with a holistic approach.

Hello, my name is Aijens and I am a physiotherapist and massage therapist with several years of experience working with children, adults, and the elderly.

My background as an ultra-runner and triathlete has given me a deep understanding of endurance sports, injury prevention, recovery, and overall wellness. This experience allows me to provide more effective care not only for athletes but also for Sunday runners. I take a holistic approach with each client, focusing on both their physical and mental well-being.

Beyond my work, I have a passion for acting, and I love integrating creativity and mindfulness into everything I do.

East meets West both in philosophy & technique is my base. Restoring movement, communication and quelling pain are essential for getting the body out of its owns way for healing. I love working with all people from the athletic to the disabled to improve their quality of life.

Clayret

Pro Massage Therapist
Hi, My name is Clayret. I was born and raised in Colombia, walked part of my life journey in Aruba and for years now I have been flowing with the energy of Amsterdam.

Through my admiration for Universal Energies, the intelligence of our biological body, and thought patterns, I traveled to the Himalayan regions of Nepal and Ladakh, North India, where I professionally learned to play singing bowls with massage.

With all my passion I give holistic sound healing, relaxing massage therapy, Swedish massage, reflexology, and deep tissue massage.

The various vibrations and sound tones of the singing bowls have a harmonious and purifying effect on our bodies, even at the cellular level.

Since the human body consists of approximately 70% water, the vibrations of the different sound tones cause changes in our energy. Blockages disappear, and the energy begins to flow more freely.

The focus of these massages are to reduce stress, detach from thoughts, and support healing processes.
