LASER for LONG-Covid: My name is Ron Dilessen, I am 60 years old and I live in Dordrecht. I came across Feyk and his Long-Covid LASER treatments through a publication on the internet. I found the principles for the treatment plausible and clearly explained. After the intake plus first treatment, I had 8 more treatments at the end of '22, beginning of '23. My energy level was seriously affected, to such an extent that I was on the verge of losing my job [and everything that depends on it, such as mortgage, house]. However, I am doing very well now. I am now at about 75-80% of what I was in terms of energy level. I still have to take a 'power nap' at about 5 pm, but after that I can continue in the evening. I do know that if I had not taken this opportunity, my life would have been ruined by now.... People who want to know more can call me on 0612856017.

LASER / after Inguinal hernia surgery: For over two and a half years I (male, 73 years old) suffered from severe chronic pain in my lower abdomen. The cause was very likely due to 2 inguinal hernias and a prostate surgery. So much pain, my life did not become any happier every day.

Every morning again: getting up and knowing that you can only get through the day somewhat bearably with an increasingly heavy dose of painkillers such as Oxycodone, Tramadol etc. A proverbial wheelbarrow full of medicine, numerous injections at surgeons and at the pain clinic, nothing helped. Eventually you slide further and further into a severe burn-out from which you see no way out. You try everything to get help, but in the hospital the doctors could not help me any further.

Ultimately, you try to Google whether there is something or someone who could help you further. That is how I came across this High Power (Deep Tissue) Laser Therapy at Feyke Hogenbirk in Doetinchem. This therapist turned out to be an extremely experienced practitioner and had a good listening ear for my situation.

And now?..... It is truly unbelievable and may sound exaggerated, but I have my life back!! Because after just five (!!!) treatments I am now almost pain-free. I can laugh again and enjoy everyday things, where I used to spend most of my time in bed. Many people with all kinds of pain in muscles and joints are often helped with nasty painful injections. (including me). If it doesn't help, or you dread those injections, then the Deep Tissue Laser therapy with Feyke Hogenbirk can certainly and quickly deliver a fantastic result. I am very happy with it!!!

LASER / WHIPLASH: I am 30 years old and 9 years ago someone drove into the back of me at 65 km/h. I suffered a serious whiplash. Everything was done about it, nothing helped, sometimes it only got worse. I had actually given up hope that it would ever get better. Then I saw the article about this LASER treatment in the newspaper. Of course I was very skeptical but I called anyway. I am so glad I did... after 4 treatments I was already pain-free. I have my own saddlery and can work again! I am even going to start strength training again, something I had [also] said goodbye to. Super happy with it, recommended!

LASER / KNEE : I am so happy! I had my first Deep Tissue Laser Therapy on my left knee on Friday. I have had severe bone pain from osteoarthritis for 3 years, which made it difficult for me to walk. I limped, sometimes to the point of tears. After the first treatment I was up and walking normally without pain. After the treatment I went to the store and realized how well that went. I could just walk longer and even do my shopping without pain. That took a few days at first and it kept getting longer. After my knee replacement I needed a few more treatments to speed up the recovery process and that helped me enormously. I would recommend this treatment to everyone. Thank you Feyk !

LASER / BACK: I am 77 years old and have lived in Doetinchem for almost 30 years. I am a retired soldier and have been in the fire brigade for 47 years. As a man you often think that you are still 30 and that we will always be able to walk for a long time. But in 2007 my right leg suddenly stopped working, and within 8 minutes my life was never the same again. I ended up in hospital with a low double hernia and had to undergo a number of operations during that year. Even after that, I could not even walk from my front door to our car. I was lucky enough to be referred to Hogenbirk by some good friends. The residual complaints were caused by a muscle and nerve problem in my lower back. After several manual treatments in which the High Power Laser with that roller was also used, it was a miracle that came true. I no longer had severe pain in my lower back and no more radiation in my leg. My lower back became stronger as a result, as well as my legs and hips. My balance has also improved tremendously, I am now able to walk downtown, etc. I am of course grateful to the doctors in the hospital, but also to Feyk's treatments. My family also sees the difference that treatment has made in my life. I have my life back..!

LASER / FLANK SCAR: I am a 75 year old man, a carpenter by trade, and fell through a roof about 25 years ago. As a result, I sustained an injury in my right flank, in a muscle between the ribs and the pelvis. That was a hemorrhage but according to him it has become a scar. That scar tissue was treated there but nothing helped. When he did it with the LASER, it was solved in 4 times. Kudos!

SHOCKWAVE / SHOULDER: I work in healthcare and have been walking around with a painful shoulder for years. First the right and now the left started too, due to overloading it. I got an injection from the GP a few times a year, but the ultrasound that was made in the hospital showed that there was calcium in a shoulder muscle. I had once read an article and advertisement in Het Vizier by Hogenbirk and his special shockwave method, so I called them for an appointment. All the time, good explanation and an ultrasound during the examination. After the first treatment I could lie on it better and I no longer woke up from the pain..! I had a total of 8 treatments and now I am pain-free again and I can put good strain on it. The complaints on the left have also disappeared, even without treatment, because I no longer overloaded it. It cost a bit, but then you have something. Hats off!

SHOCKWAVE / HEEL SPUR: I am a 65 year old woman and have had severe pain under my heel for a year. It has completely ruined my life. I used to walk a lot, now I even prefer to take the escalator. After a relatively short walk in the city I would rather take a taxi home. I was done. I have tried everything to get rid of it. Nothing helped. By searching on the internet I found the practice of Hogenbirk, in Doetinchem. If only I had known that earlier: this special strong Shockwave Therapy was excellent, because I noticed a huge change after just one treatment! I had less pain when getting up in the morning and the pain was also duller. After a few treatments I experienced about 80% reduction in pain, which allowed me to get going faster in the morning and after sitting. After each Shockwave session it improved by small steps. The treatments varied between bearable and pleasant. I had 8 treatments in total. It has given me my life back.

EPTE / PE / ACHILLES TENDON: My entire footballing family suffers from their Achilles tendons. Me too, on both sides even. There is a thickening on both. After a match or training, I would limp for 2 days and also get stupid comments about it. Through/via I ended up with Feyk Hogenbirk and he has already helped me to a large extent with the new PE therapy (or EPTE). This is done with a needle that is connected to a device with a cable. The needle is pushed into the tendon with an echo device so that you can see exactly where it goes, and then an electric current is applied. You don't feel that much. But it helped me after 6 times on one side. The other needs a few more times, he said, but I am already happy with it.

JAW PHYSIO / LASER: For years I had a headache on the side of my head and it got worse and worse. I also started to get earache on the left. The GP couldn't find anything, the ENT specialist couldn't and the neurologist couldn't either. The jaw surgeon finally referred me to a Jaw Physio and that's how I ended up there. After a very good explanation it became clear to me what the cause had to be: I was moving my jaw incorrectly! After his instructions, my movements improved immediately in the first session. The Laser was also used during the treatment to make the pain disappear quickly. My pain decreased during the treatment and even further in the days that followed. After 3 treatments I was rid of it! I had been walking around with it for so long... how simple can it be! Thank you!
