Mick Arriëns
My name is Mick Arriëns, osteopath D.O.-MRO, and I have been active in healthcare for many years. My initial desire to help people with physical complaints led me to bioresonance and phytotherapy, where I learned how bodily processes interact and how disturbances can cause a range of issues. However, I missed the direct, hands-on approach,
something I ultimately found in osteopathy. After completing my osteopathy training, I have worked with great dedication in this rewarding field.
I work in a calm and careful manner, focusing not only on the area of complaint but also on possible causes elsewhere in the body. Every treatment is personalized and aimed at long-term improvement.
Outside the practice, I love staying active - I’m passionate about watersports and practice martial arts and functional fitness. I live in Haarlem with my girlfriend and our dog.
Research
Before earning my D.O. diploma, Félicie Crijns and I researched the diagnosis and treatment of adhesions following cesarean section. We examined postpartum care and explored how these adhesions contribute to back, abdominal, and pelvic pain.
Registered with the Dutch Register of Osteopathy (NRO)
The treatment
The consultation starts with an interview and a physical examination. It looks at the region of the complaint, but also how this region is related to the rest of the body. From the findings of the study, a treatment plan follows.
After two to three sessions, it will become clear whether the therapy has the desired effect. In case of acute symptoms, three to five treatments are usually sufficient. In the case of persistent or chronic complaints, more treatments will be necessary.
About the practice
The practice is located in the Houtvaartkwartier in Haarlem, just outside the center. Easily accessible by car, bike or public transport. The space is located on the ground floor and is easily accessible.
