Natasja Hermans

I was born in Weert, grew up in Nederweert, and moved back to Weert when I was 24. Before joining the Chiropractic Centre, I worked as a store manager at Etos for almost 25 years. After all those years, I felt ready for a new challenge. Following a lovely conversation, I was given the opportunity to spend a day observing how things worked at the practice. It didn’t take long for me to realise that this was exactly the kind of job I was looking for.

What I love most about my work is the variety. No two days are ever the same, and I get a lot of satisfaction from taking care of others. For me, that includes everything from giving patients a warm welcome and making sure the practice looks its best to supporting our chiropractors so they can focus on providing the best possible care.

One of the most rewarding aspects of my job is the contact with patients. Everyone has their own story, which often leads to interesting and meaningful conversations. I believe it is important that people feel heard and valued, so they can relax and feel comfortable from the moment they walk through the door.

What also makes me proud is seeing the difference our chiropractors can make in people’s lives. It is wonderful to watch patients start feeling better and leave the practice with a smile. Especially on busy days, I get a real sense of satisfaction when everything runs smoothly and patients go home happy.

I live in Weert with my husband, our daughter and son, and our Bernese Mountain Dog, Jip. In my free time, I enjoy going out for a bite to eat or a drink with friends, reading a good book, cooking, travelling, and taking our dog for walks.

I am also the team manager of a men’s hockey team, which happens to include one of our chiropractors! Another chiropractor plays for a team we regularly face in friendly matches, so there is always a little friendly rivalry on the hockey pitch.
