Sander Sprong, osteopath in Amsterdam

Sander Sprong graduated from the Hogeschool van Amsterdam in 1996 with a degree in physical therapy. He has worked as a physical therapist in several countries, including Germany, the Netherlands and England. After returning to the Netherlands, he felt the urge to further develop his knowledge and skills in examination and treatment. Despite his years of experience and attending continuing education, he continued to strive for more expertise in examining and treating people with physical complaints.

Osteopathy as a deeper insight

In Osteopathy is where Sander Sprong could find the deeper insight that he was looking for. An osteopath sees the body as one whole system. For Sander, this was a logical concept. This is because the body not only consists of the musculoskeletal system, but also has internal organs and a nervous system. It is the cohesion of these three systems that allows us to function as human beings. The ability to involve all of these systems in both the examination as well as the treatment makes osteopathy a valuable approach to Sander.

Sander took the six-year course in osteopathy at College Sutherland in Amsterdam. In February 2011, Sander Sprong opened the doors of his own practice in Amsterdam. He is a member of the professional associations NVO (Dutch Association for Osteopathy) and registered with the NRO (Dutch Register for Osteopathy).

In addition to his work with adults, Sander specialized in treating babies and children, after completing the two-year course “Osteopathy in children” at Panta Rhei, an institute for advanced professional training in Osteiopatty.
As a father, he has personally experienced what it is like to deal with a baby that suffered from prolonged crying, which adds value to his work with young babies.

An active osteopath in Amsterdam, Sander recently attended a new advanced professional training course on integrated techniques, further deepening his expertise in examining and treating babies, children and adults alike.
