My profile:
My name is Michal Arnson. I live in Amstelveen with my husband and three children. Eight years ago, I moved to the Netherlands, where I developed my career as a physiotherapist. I studied physiotherapy at Tel Aviv University, where my passion for the human body and movement was born. Since then, I have gained extensive international work experience in the Netherlands, England and Israel, working in hospitals, private practices and special schools.
My expertise lies in treating spinal deformities, postural problems, pelvic pain, neurological disorders and paediatric physiotherapy. I specialise in Schroth therapy, a proven method for scoliosis and other spinal deformities. In addition, I have studied NDT Bobath, an effective treatment method for children and adults with neurological disorders. I also counsel patients with pelvic pain and pre- and postnatal complaints and apply dry needling to relieve muscle tension and pain.
During my work, I have gained broad experience with a diverse patient base, from children with neurological disorders to adults with chronic pain and sports injuries.
Besides my family and work, I am an avid sportsman. My favourite sports are judo, climbing, running, horse riding and kickboxing. My own experience in sports helps me not only in coaching athletes with injuries, but also in developing effective rehabilitation programmes.
What motivates me most in my work is seeing the progress my patients make. It gives me great satisfaction to help people move pain-free, get stronger and resume their daily activities or sports with confidence. I believe in a personal and holistic approach and tailor my treatments to my patients' specific needs and goals.
