Félicie Crijns - Women’s Osteopath in Amsterdam
My name is Félicie Crijns, D.O.-MRO, and I work as an osteopath in Amsterdam.
In my practice, I mainly support women with hormonal, cyclical, pelvic, and stress-related complaints. I also treat babies and adults.
What I love about osteopathy is that we do not only look at the area where symptoms show up, but I look at the body as a whole. Many complaints are influenced by different factors that are connected.
My approach combines a holistic perspective with evidence-informed knowledge. Through my academic background and medical training, I take a broad view of health, with attention to the connection between the body, stress, lifestyle, and recovery.
My interest in women’s health has been a common thread throughout my studies and career. For my osteopathic thesis, I researched the role of scar tissue in recovery after a Caesarean section.
Specialized in Women’s Health, Stress and Pelvic Complaints
I have always been fascinated by the relationship between the body, health, and recovery. This curiosity led me to explore osteopathy, nervous system regulation, body awareness, and the impact of stress on health more deeply.
Alongside my osteopathic training, I have studied meditation, yoga, and body awareness. I completed several meditation courses and a Hatha yoga teacher training. Where relevant, I integrate these insights into treatment through breathing exercises, relaxation techniques, and practical tools that support recovery.
The foundation of my work is hands-on treatment. I also support women in better understanding their bodies and the factors that may be influencing their symptoms, health, and wellbeing.
What drives me is the belief that women’s health deserves more attention and support than it often receives today. Too many women learn to live with symptoms as though they are simply part of life.
Through Terra | Soma Osteopathie, I aim to create a place where women feel heard, understood, and supported — so they can feel more resilient, healthy, and at home in their bodies.
Complaints I often work with:
cyclical and hormonal complaints
pelvic, abdominal, and jaw-related complaints
stress- and tension-related complaints
persistent or recurring pain complaints
fatigue and overload
menstrual and cycle-related complaints
nervous system dysregulation and chronic tension
Discovery call
During a 15-minute introductory call, we take the time to discuss your symptoms, health concerns, and situation. Together, we explore what may be contributing to your complaints and whether a broader approach could be supportive, for example regarding lifestyle, exercises, or additional testing.
Based on this conversation, I explain what a possible treatment trajectory could look like and how I may be able to support you.
Are you curious whether my approach could support your symptoms? Feel free to send me a message or schedule an introductory call.
