Don’t take my word for it. See what others say!
“During the time that Jelle was still living in Holland I was a long-time client of his. By means of his intensive massage he made… me more aware of my body and the influence it could exert on my mind. Those sessions were of great value to me. Jelle is no short-term thinker, instead he devotedly invests with undivided focus on your well-being, take time to do that and build on durable insight. I have searched, but never found any such good masseurs like them again. If he should come back to The Netherlands I am going to be their first client!” Read more “I was a long-time client”
L. Slok, May 2008, Hilversum The Netherlands
“Jelle’s bodywork releases a lifetime of tension and blockage. In my experience over several years, each and every time he tunes in respectfully to your… needs and takes it from there. Apart from deep and lasting physical relaxation and opening, they can look and work at deeper levels to bring insight and a fresh perspective. Highly recommended!” Read more “a lifetime of tension and blockage”
K.J. Donkers, May 2008, Marken The Netherlands
In my experience there are few people who know how to work a body like Jelle. I have been rolfed and had many different methods… of massages in many different countries. The work Jelle does is unique in that it combines many techniques from different methods of bodywork and in addition there is his special defining touch. “After a session with Jelle there is an inner restructuring taking place which reinforces the work done. This is definitely not the smooth and relaxing massage for the squeamish types. Yet if you follow the instructions and breath through the ‘tough’ spots the relieve is well worth your endurance.” Read more “many different methods of massages”
