Working from home increases need for physiotherapy, therapist Anke Eliëns says

As a physiotherapist at Praktijk Welschap in Meerhoven-Eindhoven, Anke Eliëns saw more people coming to her practice for help in COVID times. Apparently working from home is not always best for your posture and your fitness. A massage or even medication may not cure the problem in the long run, creating awareness and changing personal habits and behavior are key to a full recovery.    

But Anke is also interested to learn more about internationals. More and more people of Indian descent visit our physiotherapist praktijk Welschap. To provide the best possible treatment for people of Indian descent visiting a Dutch physiotherapy practice, she likes to perform a study. Studying for a Masters degree in Manual therapy at the Hogeschool Arnhem en Nijmegen (HAN), she wants to identify the expectations about physiotherapy by people of Indian descent.
