(071) 512 77 88Complementary care that completes your recovery
At Chiropractie Leiden, we look beyond chiropractic care alone. Sometimes chiropractic treatment on its own is enough to help your body function better. And sometimes it’s smarter (and faster) to bring in additional expertise. That’s why, alongside chiropractic care, you can also receive complementary support within our clinic.

When is complementary care a good step?
Complementary care is especially valuable when you notice that symptoms keep returning, when multiple factors are at play (such as stress, lifestyle, load/capacity, or recovery after an injury), or when your body remains “stuck” despite having tried many things already.
Also, when you want more control over your own recovery, with practical tools you can use at home, complementary support can make a real difference. Together, we look at what makes sense in your situation, aligned with your goals and what feels right for you.
Somatic therapy for tension and stress
Sometimes symptoms aren’t only in the muscles and joints, but also in how your body holds and processes tension. With somatic therapy, we look at the interaction between your nervous system, stress, breathing, muscle tension, and recovery.
This support is practical and body-oriented. You learn to better recognize your body’s signals and gain tools to regulate tension. This can be helpful for long-term symptoms, stress-related symptoms, overload, physical restlessness, or when you notice that your recovery keeps stalling.
We adapt to what you can handle and need. Sometimes the benefit lies in small adjustments you can apply daily, which actually make your recovery more stable in the long run.
Nutrition as support for recovery
Many health issues aren’t just about what’s happening in your muscles, joints, and nervous system, but also about what your body needs from the inside to heal. Nutrition plays a key role in this: it provides building blocks, supports your energy levels, and can influence processes such as recovery, resilience, and (low-grade) inflammatory responses.
That’s why at Chiropractie Leiden, we also focus on lifestyle and dietary choices that can support your recovery. In practice, this often means looking at very specific details: which foods might actually be perpetuating your symptoms, what helps calm your body, and what small adjustments are feasible in your daily life.
We keep it practical and personalized, providing you with clear advice tailored to your situation and goals – as a valuable complement to your chiropractic treatment.
One plan, one direction: collaboration within the clinic
The advantage of complementary care within Chiropractie Leiden is that we can coordinate quickly. When needed, we align internally so you don’t receive separate pieces of advice, but one clear direction.
This means: we look at the full picture, create a plan that fits your goals, and above all keep it practical. What can you do today to move forward, and what does your body need to sustain this?
Where appropriate, we also collaborate with other healthcare providers in the region. This way, we make sure you receive the right support at the right time.
Complementary care alongside chiropractic: what it looks like
Complementary care can become part of your treatment in various ways:
- As a supplement to your chiropractic treatments (for example, to speed up recovery or prevent a relapse).
- As standalone counseling when you’re primarily looking for support with tension/stress or lifestyle issues.
- As a temporary “extra layer” of support when symptoms are complex or have been ongoing for some time.
We always discuss together what makes sense. Sometimes a single extra consultation is enough to point you in the right direction. And sometimes it’s helpful to have more intensive support over a period of time, so you can really make progress.
