Acupunctuur Tichelaar

My name is Herman Tichelaar. After completing my physiotherapy education, I became an acupuncturist in 1984. For over forty years, I have worked in my physiotherapy practice as a (psychosomatic) physiotherapist and acupuncturist. Both professions have influenced my way of working. During an acupuncture treatment, the physiotherapist in me always keeps an eye on things. In 2016, I stopped working as a physiotherapist and continued full-time as an acupuncturist.

Taking the time calmly is a prerequisite for an optimal treatment. This means: listening to the unique story, feeling (the pulse), thinking about the best point selection at that moment, and placing the needles, every consultation anew. The result is that the patient's energy system reorganizes itself. This will lead to a decrease in complaints and an increase in well-being.

Education:

Physiotherapy (1976)
Classical Acupuncture (1984)
Psychosomatic therapy (2001)

You are never done learning. As an acupuncturist, you are constantly evolving.
