Positive, Caring & Always going the extra mile.

Jara is specialized in lower back and pelvic issues, as well as jaw-related problems. She also has experience with dry needling, scar tissue therapy, fascia therapy, and gives exercise classes for pregnant and postpartum women as a certified FLOOR-physio. In September, she will be starting her master’s degree in pelvic physiotherapy to continue growing her expertise.

Born and raised in Amsterdam, Jara is an energetic and down-to-earth physiotherapist who brings positivity and genuine care to everything she does. She has been working as a physiotherapist for five years and is known for her holistic view on recovery, always considering the whole body and not just the site of the complaint.

What makes Jara unique is her deep belief in the body’s natural ability to heal. She combines this with a strong focus on the connection between body and mind, ensuring that her patients feel truly seen and heard throughout their journey. You can expect her to create a safe, supportive environment where openness and honesty are encouraged, and where the treatment plan is always tailored to you.

Her personal experience with physiotherapy started at 16, when a knee injury during a dance competition forced her into a long rehabilitation. That journey sparked her passion for the field and gave her a deep understanding of what it means to be on the other side of the treatment table.

Outside of work, Jara is a lover of nature and movement. From a young age, she’s tried many different sports but dancing has always remained a constant in her life. These days, she enjoys strength training and Pilates, and is looking forward to joining a dance crew again now that she's back in Amsterdam. A fun fact: she loves making her own creams and balms from a book on natural plant medicine, she’s not one to shy away from a challenge!

Her philosophy? Believe in the power of your own recovery.
With Jara, you’ll find not only a skilled therapist but a partner who’s just as invested in your progress as you are.
