Biography
Marijke completed her training at the Academy of Physiotherapy in 1986. However, this is not all, Marijke always follows further education and courses, focusing on health and people, to always provide the most up-to-date care. Soon, in 1988, Marijke started her own practice, specialising in physiotherapy, acupuncture and children's sensomotor therapy.
Over the years, she expanded her practice into Centrum Engelbrecht, which includes integral manual therapy, BICOM bioresonance, orthomolecular medicine and nutritional advice, kPNI and Intermittent Living®© concept.
As of 2019, she is adding a new venture, FlexHealth, a corporate health consultancy, through which she supports companies that care about the health of their employees through clinical Psycho- Neuro- Immunology in order to bring about more effective business management.
Unsurprisingly, Marijke had her mission at an early clear at a young age: to pass on health, by giving people their own preventive or restorative tools for this. To accomplish this, the cause of diseases had to be known. Fortunately, science ran parallel to her search for these tools. And after completing scientific training within kPNI, she now has such extensive knowledge that she can offer an actual holistic approach she can offer to achieve her mission.
So Marijke is committed to making physical and mental health accessible to all. Among others, she treats the following conditions: digestive complaints, IBS and PDS, allergies/intolerances, skin problems, hormone imbalance (such as PMS, PCOS, fertility), thyroid and adrenal complaints, pain, weight, behaviour and stress management, depression, mood swings, autoimmune diseases and she offers cancer support.
