Jeroen Postma
Jeroen Postma was born in England but grew up in the United States. His parents are both Dutch. He studied chiropractic at Northwestern College of Chiropractic in Minneapolis, Minnesota and received the Doctor of Chiropractic degree (DC) in 1987.
In 1988 he moved to the Netherlands to discover his roots. After working in a group practice in Heemstede for some time, he opened his own office in Leiden in September 1990.
Jeroen Postma is a Diplomate of the American Chiropractic Neurology Board (DACNB). This specialization in the field of functional neurology makes him accredited to treat various neurological disorders that are often the cause of acute and chronic health problems.
He is also a tutor and co-founder of the Brain & Neuroplasticity group, which provides post-grad courses on functional neurology. He is also past president of the Dutch chiropractic association (NCA) and a Board of Governors member at the AECC (Anglo European Chiropractic College).
Kim Schoenmakers
Kim Schoenmakers moved from England to the Leiden to build a future in the Netherlands together with her Dutch boyfriend -also chiropractor. She is originally from Germany – you wouldn’t say with such a Dutch sounding name – but speaks excellent Dutch.
Like her colleagues, Mrs. Schoenmakers is also trained to treat all ages and complaints. However, she is specifically interested in (pregnant) women and children. In the coming years, Mrs. Schoenmakers expects to specialize more in this category of patients and also in functional neurology – partly a reason why she chose Chiropractic Leiden.
Mrs. Schoenmakers likes to be active in sports. In the past she mainly rode horses. Today she is often at the gym and doing functional training.
Jon Narlock
My name is Jonathan Narlock, and I graduated in 2017 from Northwestern Health Sciences University in
Minneapolis, USA. A few years ago, I crossed paths with Jeroen Postma during a neurology course offered by the Brain & Neuroplasticity platform, which he co-founded with chiropractor Tom Claykens.
I’m a true “people person” and enjoy not only helping others become healthier but also listening to their stories and engaging in meaningful conversations.
My interest in chiropractic began in 2010 after both a skiing accident and a car accident in the same month, which left me with whiplash. The treatments provided quick relief, and I was back on my feet in no time. This experience inspired me to pursue a career in chiropractic, where I could combine my passion for people with helping others. After a 4.5-year journey to become a Doctor of Chiropractic, I found my true calling.
As a chiropractor, I have the privilege of helping people regain their quality of life—whether it’s enabling them to drive again or helping them put on their socks. It’s these small victories that make my work so fulfilling.
