Judith Scheffer
MSc Physiotherapist | Dominican Republic
About Me
Bringing neuroscience, movement science, and heart into your recovery.
I’m a physiotherapist with 12+ years of international experience in the Netherlands, Germany, Switzerland, and now the Dominican Republic. I hold a Master of Science in Neurophysiotherapy and have worked in leading rehab centers and neurological clinics, including the Brühlgut Foundation and the Clinic Lengg in Zurich.
Alongside hands-on therapy, I’ve been involved in research projects, student education, and team training. I’m passionate about helping people regain function, joy and independence — especially in complex or long-term conditions.
My approach is:
- Functional & movement-based – less passive techniques, more active progress
- Evidence-informed – integrating neuroscience & research into every plan
- Empowering – I support you in becoming stronger, safer, and more confident
- Warm & holistic – you are more than a diagnosis, and I treat you as such
