M.M.M. (Marc) van Leeuwen

Marc van Leeuwen graduated from the International Academy of Osteopathy (I.A.O.) and earned the Master of Science degree in Osteopathic Medicine (Msc. Ost. Med.) through Bucks New University (UK) in 2020.

Marc van Leeuwen graduated from the International Academy of Osteopathy (I.A.O.)  and obtained his Master of Science in Osteopathic Medicine (MSc. Ost. Med.) from Buckinghamshire New University in the United Kingdom in 2020. Prior to becoming an osteopath, he worked for more than ten years as a Master Manual Therapist and Sports Physiotherapist (MSc).

In 2022, Marc completed the two-year specialization Osteopathy for Children’, further developing his knowledge and skills in the examination and treatment of babies and children. The teaching of the highly experienced and passionate osteopath René Zweedijk has had a significant influence on his development in this field. Marc also assists him during the Central Nervous System module. Since 2023, Marc has been a lecturer at PRO Osteo, where he teaches within the Osteopathy for Children programme.

To further deepen his knowledge, Marc studied at the Sutherland Cranial College of Osteopathy (SCCO)in England, expanding his expertise in both general and paediatric osteopathy.

Marc also greatly values his collaboration with osteopath Ton van der Heiden, who took him under his wing as a mentor. Marc has since integrated Ton’s distinctive approach to examination into his own way of working, in which curiosity, precision and clinical expertise play a central role.

Marc treats babies, children and adults, both athletes and non-athletes, with a wide variety of complaints. What fascinates him most about osteopathy is the interconnectedness of the different tissues and systems within the body. The body functions as a whole, with its different structures continuously influencing one another.

For Marc, this is at the heart of osteopathic thinking: looking beyond the area where symptoms are experienced and investigating which factors within the overall pattern may be contributing to the complaint.

Andromeda Osteopathie Behandelaars Sten
Osteopath MSc. Ost. DO - (MRO)

S.J. (Sten) Bierens

Sten completed his training at the International Academy of Osteopathy (I.A.O.) and earned his Master of Science degree at Bucks New University (UK) in 2024.

Sten has been associated with Andromeda Center for Osteopathy since 2024. In that same year, he completed his studies at the International Academy of Osteopathy (I.A.O.) and earned his Master of Science at Bucks New University (UK). Before that, he worked as a physiotherapist for seven years. During this period, he discovered that some complaints remained persistent and difficult to explain. His curiosity and the need for a broader view of health led him to osteopathy. The holistic approach to the human being, with a focus on supporting the body’s self-healing capacity, brought him the knowledge and skills he was looking for.

As an osteopath, Sten looks beyond the complaint alone. He searches for possible disruptions and interconnections in the body that may contribute to the development or maintenance of complaints. He likes to actively involve his patients in the treatment process by providing insight into the origin of their complaints. His friendly, calm, and analytical approach ensures that you, as a patient, feel heard and understood.

Sten continues to develop within his profession. He is currently following a specialization in osteopathy for babies and children. A logical next step, given his experience and interest in this target group. He has also fully woven the research method, developed by osteopath and former colleague Ton van der Heiden, into his approach. This makes his treatments both personal and effective, for both acute and chronic complaints.

Osteopath MSc. Ost. DO - (MRO)

J. (Jonne) Weekers

Jonne completed his training as an osteopath at the International Academy of Osteopathy (I.A.O.). In addition, he earned his Master of Science at Bucks New University in the United Kingdom.

Jonne has been associated with Andromeda Center for Osteopathy since 2026. From his experience in physiotherapy, his interest in osteopathy grew. He noticed that complaints could not always be fully explained from the place where someone experiences them. The need to look further and understand the body as a whole led him to osteopathy.

He completed his training at the International Academy of Osteopathy (I.A.O.) and earned his Master of Science at Bucks New University in the United Kingdom. Within osteopathy, the interconnectedness between different tissues and body systems especially appeals to him. Therefore, he looks beyond the complaint alone and investigates which connections within the body may play a role.

In his treatments, Jonne finds it important to listen carefully and take the time for the story behind the complaint. Calmness, trust, and clear explanation are central to his way of treating. He likes to involve patients in the treatment process and provides explanations about his findings and the treatment.

He also continues to develop within his profession. Recently, he started the two-year specialization ‘Osteopathy for Babies and Children’ at PRO Osteo. A great next step with which he deepens his knowledge and further specializes in the treatment of babies and children.
