Sylvia~Isaya (Structural Integration) and Cas Rooseboom (Acupuncture)
We work on sustainable health, solving complaints, prevention and optimal functioning.
Our Methods
Acupuncture
Within the ancient Chinese medicine, body and mind are seen as a whole. Physical, emotional and mental development constantly influence each other. Complaints are therefore not viewed as isolated phenomena, but as disturbances that tell something about the entire body.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a safe and effective treatment method that can be used to treat various physical and psychological complaints. Acupuncture stimulates the whole body to tackle the problems itself and initiate healing processes.
Within Centrum Acupuncture Structural Integration we work with classical acupuncture, which looks at cause and connections. With very thin needles, mildly effective techniques and applications such as Moxa (introducing heat), Cupping (removing tension) and Guasha (dissolving stagnation).
Individual routes
Both in an Acupuncture trajectory and in a Structural integration trajectory we work from an individual approach and follow a strategy with clear steps that help you achieve your goal, whether this is pain-free movement, trouble-free sleep or support you with the challenges in your life.

massage therapy
Structural integration is about the connective tissue and is part of massage therapy which is about form and function: why does the body move the way it does and which form suits you.
Or: what shape does the body have and what effect does this have on movement. Think of different body tensions.
For example, a sporty body can have overstrain if it has trained too hard. An office worker can have an undervoltage because he has not moved enough. But a traumatic experience can also change the posture and movements of the body in such a way that the body blocks.
These tensions can be recognized by pain or stress. Information that is recognized by the body, but if the owner of this body cannot properly interpret this information, recurring or permanent complaints can be developed.
Connective tissue therapy / structural integration can offer a solution here.
You learn to interpret body signals correctly
so you can avoid stress and pain.

Cas Rooseboom, acupuncturist
As an artist I have learned to observe and interpret the language of abstraction.
Now, as an acupuncturist and structural body worker, I use these qualities, along with my experience as an oriental health sports teacher, to get to grips with the language of your body. This allows you to restore strength and solve and prevent complaints.
The combination of meditation and movement works for me. By continuing to move from the inside as well as from the outside, it is possible to dissolve tension and pain.
With this experience and the knowledge from studies of Chinese medicine, acupuncture and structural strategies (fascia work), I would like to help you find your vital and relaxed body.
Sylvia~Isaya, Massage therapeut
From an outer still life to inner compassion
After a turbulent career as a dancer, model and performing artist, I turned the wheel 180 degrees in 1995 and started studying massage therapy about how the human body functions, not knowing that this subject would still fascinate me now, 25 years later.
When I had obtained my diploma in Naturopathic Massage and Movement Therapist, I realized, thanks to all the knowledge I had gained, that I was only at the very beginning of many studies that would follow each other over the years.
Most interesting, however, were my personal life experiences, the many clients and diverse requests for help that have formed the basis for the deeper connective tissue work now.
I have undergone all fascia-related treatments that I give myself, I know what to expect and I will guide you step by step in sometimes challenging connective tissue manipulations.
I teach you to look at yourself again without prejudice, to look together for what moves you.
The connective tissue/body work has taught me a deep respect for life and from that thought I like to commit myself to help you get more pleasure out of your life by having a pain-free body.
