Kinderfysiotherapie in Amsterdam
Paediatric physiotherapy for children aged 0 to 18
About
A small paediatric physiotherapy practice in Amsterdam West run by Maggie Onofri, who has worked as a physiotherapist since 2017 and specialised in children since 2020. She treats babies, toddlers and school-age children up to 18, adapting exercise therapy to each child’s age and stage of motor development. Babies under one are almost always seen at home, and home visits are also arranged for children who struggle in unfamiliar settings. Sessions run in English, Dutch, Italian or Spanish, and the family is treated as part of the process.
