Amsterdam Zuid
Heal the root.Not just the pain.
Western precision. Eastern depth.
One body. Two ways in.
One body
Both look at the whole body.
Through movement
How you stand, breathe, and move as one.
Through rest and balance
Stress, the ability to rest, and balance. In the Japanese tradition.
How we look
Pain is a signal. We look for the pattern that keeps sending it.
Movement, through physiotherapy. Rest and balance, through acupuncture.
Who you will see, where, and what the first visit is.
What we found, what we did, and what you do after.
WHERE TO START
Begin where it makes sense. Both disciplines are available — separately, or together.
If physiotherapy has already been tried and it still hurts, a second-opinion assessment

Since 2014
Hide has worked with footballers since 2014, and with professional athletes since about 2017. The same physiotherapy is open to anyone.
YOUR FIRST VISIT
Listen. See wider. Treat. Leave clear.
Your history, the pattern, and the concern — before treatment starts.
Past the sore spot. Movement, tension, and the rest of the day.
Physiotherapy with Hide, or acupuncture with an acupuncturist. Chosen for that day.
What we found, what we did, and what you do next.
IN THEIR WORDS
Hide kijkt op een andere manier als normale fysiotherapeuten. Hij zoekt naar de oorzaak van je klacht in plaats van alleen de symptomen te behandelen. Ik ben super tevreden en zou Hide zeker aanbevelen!

I had been struggling with persistent heaviness and pain around my ankle for a long time. Instead of just focusing on the painful area, the treatment took a whole-body approach, addressing balance and connections throughout my body. Not only did I experience immediate relief, but I was also given clear guidance on exercises to manage any future pain.

Na maanden van rugpijn en een armblessure door Padel, bezocht ik Hide's praktijk. De professionele, vriendelijke sfeer viel direct op. Hide analyseerde mijn klachten grondig en stelde een op maat gemaakte behandeling voor. Na enkele sessies was de pijn volledig verdwenen.

Before you book
We listen, look past the sore spot, and treat when that fits the same day. You leave knowing what we found and what comes next.
The clinic has no contracts with Dutch health insurers. You pay here and claim with the invoice. For physiotherapy, reimbursement depends on your policy and is partial. Acupuncture is not covered by Dutch health insurance. International or employer cover depends on your contract. Check your own policy.
Tell us at least 24 hours ahead and there is no charge. Inside 24 hours the fee is half. A no-show is the full fee. Those charges are not reimbursed by an insurer.
