Claire Duren Osteopath

Hi, I'm Claire Duren, Osteopath D.O.
Growing up around medicine, caring for patients is my natural professional path. Why osteopathy? Because it allows direct contact and immediate action with patients.

What sets me apart from other osteopaths is my focus on researching the source of pain by understanding the patient's environment and conditions so that I can provide effective treatment. This understanding allows more lasting results for the improvement of their health.

By integrating mindfulness, a practice aimed at being fully aware of bodily sensations, thoughts, emotions, and the surrounding environment, I have enriched my professional osteopathy practice with a mindful approach.

I provide services to all age groups, from infants to elderly persons, always with special attention to their unique needs.

Bonjour, je suis Claire Duren, ostéopathe D.O.
Ayant grandi dans le milieu médical, soigner les patients est ma voie professionnelle naturelle.
Pourquoi l'ostéopathie ? Parce qu'elle permet un contact direct et une action immédiate avec les patients.

Ce qui me différencie des autres ostéopathes, c'est l'importance que j'accorde à la recherche de la source de la douleur, en comprenant l'environnement et les conditions du patient afin de pouvoir lui fournir un traitement efficace. Cette compréhension permet d'obtenir des résultats plus durables pour l'amélioration de sa santé.

En intégrant la pleine conscience, une pratique visant à être pleinement conscient des sensations corporelles, des pensées, des émotions et de l'environnement qui nous entoure, j'ai enrichi ma pratique professionnelle d'ostéopathie avec une approche de pleine conscience.

J'offre mes services à tous les groupes d'âge, des nourrissons aux personnes âgées, en accordant toujours une attention particulière à leurs propre besoins.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What is osteopathy?
Osteopathic treatment is holistic and comprehensive; it investigates the root cause of loss of mobility by considering the body's overall functionality. This is absolutely not about "cracking bones", but rather working with body tissues such as muscles, joints, and fasciae to restore mobility and relieve pain. The goal is always to understand the roots behind discomforts and either treating them directly or guiding patients towards appropriate alternatives.

Should I bring anything specific to my first appointment?
Yes, please bring along any x-rays or medical exam results if you have them.

What should I wear?
There are no specific requirements about what to wear so please feel free to wear what you like.

What should I expect during the first consultation?
We will conduct a thorough medical history, your symptoms and reason of your visit. This will give us a starting point to try and understand the origin of your pain and begin the osteopathic treatment accordingly. 

How long does the consultation last?
Consultations take 45 minutes.

Does the treatment cause any discomfort or pain?
Generally not, though minor sensitivity or discomfort may occur at certain points.

How many treatments will I need?
The number of treatments depends on the reason for your consultation.

How much does a consultation cost?
A consultation costs 70 EUR and can be paid either in cash or by bank transfer.

Is the treatment covered by the mutual?
A Belgian mutual will partially cover up to minimum five sessions per year. If you have any other health insurance then you should check with your provider.
