Monica Majewski

Osteopath D.O. in Forest, Brussels

With my experience in physiotherapy and my specializations in GDS muscle chains, perineology and nutritherapy, I now focus my practice on osteopathy.
This natural transition allows me to accompany my patients with a holistic and respectful approach to the body.

Osteopathy

A Holistic and Respectful Approach to the Body

Osteopathy is a therapeutic approach that aims to diagnose and treat the body's dysfunctions holistically to improve balance and health.

I primarily practice gentle, tissue-based osteopathy (I don't necessarily seek to "crack" the joints). This approach favors listening to the tissues and their natural mobility rather than forced manipulations.

Fundamental Principles

Unity of the Body

Each part of the body influences the others. A local imbalance can have repercussions at a distance. The holistic approach of osteopathy takes into account the interdependence of different systems (nervous, circulatory, musculoskeletal, visceral, etc.).

Self-Regulation Capacity

The body has natural mechanisms of adaptation and self-healing. When balance can no longer be maintained, it's the beginning of pain, disease, etc. The osteopath accompanies the physiological adjustments already at work to help the organism regain health.

Structure and Function

The quality of a structure's tissues determines its function. Restoring tissue mobility optimizes the body's functioning by promoting nutrient circulation, waste drainage, and increased flexibility.

Toward a Biodynamic Approach

The osteopath does not seek to correct what is wrong. On the contrary, he listens to health, to encourage and strengthen these processes already at work.

In my continuing education in osteopathy, I'm orienting myself toward this biodynamic philosophy which consists of accompanying the health forces present in the organism rather than imposing an external correction.


The touch is more subtle and may seem immobile. However, this practice is not energetic. The result of long training, it is based on a fine listening to the tissues where the osteopath perceives the body's reactions: tensions, resistances, or releases.

Indications for General Osteopathy

  • Low back pain, back pain, neck pain
  • Feeling of "blockage" (lumbago, stiff neck, etc.)
  • Digestive, respiratory, or pelvic disorders
  • Headaches, migraines, and dizziness
  • Stress, sleep disorders, or chronic fatigue
  • After-effects of trauma, accidents

Training and Background

Initial Training

Master's in Physiotherapy, ISEK (2009-2013) - Solid foundations in anatomy, physiology, and manual therapy.


International Certificate from the Lymphatic Drainage School of Brussels, Leduc method (2013) – Treatment of lymphedema and cancer sequelae.

Complementary Specializations

Training in manual therapy of GDS muscle chains (2014-2016) – Expertise in the global approach to movement and posture adapted to the patient's predisposed terrain.


Training in perineology, SFER (2017-2019) – Expertise in pelvic function and perineal reeducation.


Assistant to Joëlle Winkel at ISEK and SFER: "The pelvis. Understanding the pelvis and its biomechanics" (2017-2019) – Expertise in perinatality and childbirth preparation.

Transition to Osteopathy

Diploma in osteopathy (D.O.), BELSO (2020-2025) – Complete 5-year training in structural, visceral, and cranial osteopathy – Expansion toward new techniques and expertise in semiology (identification of body dysfunctions).

Biodynamic Orientation

Continuing education toward biodynamic osteopathy, EDO (2025-…) – Integration of principles of listening to health and accompanying natural healing processes.

My Specializations in Osteopathy

For perineal reeducation, childbirth preparation, and postural reeducation in GDS muscle chains,
I invite you to visit my physiotherapy website:

Perineology

For almost 15 years, I have specialized in pelvi-perineology. I chose to do my final thesis in osteopathy on endometriosis. I also accompany women in perinatality.

Indications:

  • Endometriosis, Painful Periods
  • Pelvic, vaginal, and vulvar pain
  • Urinary disorders, Incontinence, Prolapse
  • Constipation, Hemorrhoids
  • Vaginismus, Dyspareunia
  • Perinatality (pelvic pain, nausea, postpartum)

GDS Muscle Chains

Global approach to postural imbalances and gestures. This method allows understanding the body's compensations and restoring a sustainable functional balance.

Indications:

  • Chronic musculoskeletal pain
  • Postural disorders (scoliosis, kyphosis, etc.)
  • Gait imbalances
  • Recurrent cervical tensions (hernias, etc.)
  • Injury prevention (sprains, tendinitis, etc.)
  • Digestive, respiratory, or pelvic disorders

Osteopathic Integration

These specializations now find their natural extension in tissue osteopathy. The fine understanding of the pelvi-perineal system and myofascial chains considerably enriches the osteopathic approach, allowing an even more holistic and precise care for each patient.
