Anjo is a Dutch Physiotherapist who has over 20 years' experience in his field. In addition to being a certified European Sports-Physiotherapist (ESP), he has completed numerous post graduate courses: Manual Therapy, Acupuncture and Dryneedling.
Anjo was the Physiotherapist for the Dutch professional cycling team RABOBANK for 5 years. Being an active person himself, sports are important in Anjo's life, especially Running, Skiing and Cycling. He wrote his thesis on Strain injuries in cycling.
After meeting his wife and moving to Switzerland, Anjo opened his own clinic, focusing on sports related injuries and prevention. Their Honeymoon took them to Canada, where they instantly fell in love with the country. They decided to try living in Calgary for a few years. Those few years turned into 8. Now, with their 3 children, they call Calgary home.
Each sports physiotherapist usually has sport-specific knowledge to address acute, chronic and overuse injuries. Their services are generally available to sports men and women of all ages engaged in sports at any level of competition.
Members of the European Sports Physiotherapy (ESP) have experience and knowledge in the latest evidence-based practices, skilled assessment and diagnosis of sports injuries. They use effective 'hands-on' management techniques, as well as exercise protocols to assist recovery and prevent injury.
ESP members have access to the most recent advances in sports physiotherapy.

Sports Physiotherapy is the specialised branch of physiotherapy which deals with injuries and issues related to sports people.
Sports injuries do differ from everyday injuries.
Athletes normally require high level performance and demands placed upon their body. These demands stress their muscles, joints and bones to the limit. Sports physiotherapists help athletes recover from sporting injuries, providing education and resources to prevent problems.
During his first years in Calgary, Anjo mainly worked in fast-paced city clinics. There, he witnessed how the high pace was taking a toll on patient care: focus on pain limitation, combined with limited time with clients meant root problems were never addressed. Over time, Anjo's understanding of the health care system improved. He understood the needs of his patients. Anjo believed it must be possible to improve care and efficiency.
