JESSY DE FRENNE
My name is Jessy De Frenne, graduated from the KULeuven after the 5-year training as 'Master in rehabilitation sciences and physiotherapy for musculoskeletal disorders, sports injuries' and since 2009 I have been working as an independent physiotherapist in Hoeilaart. Since 2012, I have been working full-time in my own physio-practice.
Driven by my profession, I follow various additional training courses yearly, to stay up-to-date with the latest research and treatment techniques. Afterwards I continued my study for 2 years at the interuniversity training (UAntwerp, KULeuven, UGent, VUBrussel) and obtained my diploma of 'Special competence in pelvic re-education and perinatal physiotherapy'.
Throughout my training as a physiotherapist, I became passionate about the functioning of the small pelvis, the pregnant body & the postpartum. I view each problem from multiple perspectives, and re-evaluate during each session whether the path taken, is the right one for my patient. In my practice I treat each patient individually so that a personal approach is guaranteed.
Besides being a physical therapist, I’m also a (sporty) mom of two adorable kids.
