What is sleep therapy?

Sleep therapy is a specialization within physiotherapy that focuses on sleep onset and maintenance problems, as well as early awakening. We understand everything about how sleep works, the causes of sleep problems, and how to solve them. We continuously educate ourselves to stay up-to-date with the latest developments in the field of sleep.

Sleeping often isn’t just about what happens at night, but rather what you do during the day. Therefore, we work with you to understand your daytime activities, relaxation techniques, and factors influencing your sleep. Together, we can discover the root cause of your sleep problem and how to address it. You don’t need an expensive sleep coach; with us, you’ll receive help based on scientific knowledge and personalized attention.
We examine the complaints/problems from a 24-hour perspective and systematically identify where your sleep problem originates and how to resolve it.

We teach you to relax and unwind, both during the day and at night, and help you worry less about sleep. Research shows that this often has a significant effect on your sleep problem!

What does the treatment process look like?

Send us an email or give us a call, and you’ll often have a spot for an intake within a week.
We start by unraveling your sleep problem during an intake session, which usually lasts about 45 minutes. Often, you’ll receive exercises to work on at home right away.
Together with your therapist, you’ll set a goal and plan so that you know what to focus on after the first session.
You’ll undergo 2-6 treatments. Each week, you’ll receive advice and exercises to work on. Often, the effect is significant after the first treatment!
Evaluation: After the agreed number of sessions, you’ll evaluate the results with your therapist and determine whether more sessions are needed or if you can continue on your own.
Follow-up: After a few weeks, the therapist will contact you to check on your progress.

For sleep problems in babies, we teach parents how to ensure their child becomes calm enough to sleep.

Children from 7 years old

A child who keeps getting out of bed or is afraid to sleep alone. How do you provide enough security and love as parents while also instilling confidence in them to learn to sleep independently? How do you deal with worrying and waking up too often?

We explain to children with sleep problems how sleep works, and often, this helps tremendously! What do you need to be able to sleep? How does it work for you?

We teach your child to relax so they can fall asleep more easily. We also teach them how to fall back asleep if they wake up during the night. Your child will be proud when they can sleep on their own, and we’re here to help you achieve that.

Teens

Does your teenager also stay up much later than you do? Are you unable to get them out of bed in the morning? Is their school performance suffering due to sleep problems? Are you wondering if your child is depressed or if the sadness is caused by poor sleep?

Teens also go through physiological changes when it comes to sleep. Difficulty falling asleep, not waking up to their alarm, or sleeping almost more during the day than at night are common issues. The circadian rhythm of teens shifts significantly during puberty, often causing them to fall asleep much later.

We can help you and your teenager! We teach your teenager how to become sleepy in the evening and wake up in the morning. We explain to your teenager how sleep works and how they can gain more control over it.

Both Eveline (The Hague, Katwijk), Ranjeeta (Katwijk) and Esmeralda (Noordwijk) are happy to help you and your teenager achieve a better sleep pattern!

I am incredibly grateful for the helpful and practical sleep exercise therapy I received from Eveline. The tips received were not only easy to follow, but also remarkably effective. What surprised me most was the realization that the structure of my day plays a crucial role in the quality of my sleep. Thanks for these valuable insights!

After struggling with my sleep for a long time, I came to Balans in Bewegen to tackle my sleeping problem. First I had a good intake interview and then tips were discussed on how I could promote sleep. What struck me most is that everything is done in good consultation and is really focused on the person. This means you don't have to do anything that doesn't feel good. After a few treatments I noticed an improvement. I have now been released from further treatment for a long time and fortunately I still sleep well. In short: if you have sleeping problems, treatment at Balans in Bewegen is highly recommended!<

Our 6-month-old son actually only slept on our lap or in our bed and woke up very often (6-8 times a night). We had already heard a lot of tips, but nothing helped. When we came to Eveline, she saw that our son was very alert. She helped us lower that alertness. This allowed us to better recognize our son's sleep signals and allow us to respond effectively. Sleeping is much better with Eveline's help and continues to improve.
