IMPORTANT NOTICE
Dear Patients,
It is with great sadness that we have decided to permanently close the clinic.
The last 2 years have been challenging and have reshuffled our priorities.
After battling with a lot of questions and uncertainties in our heads, our hearts took over and we need to move closer to family and friends in Europe.
It has been a privilege to live in such a beautiful part of the world and help the Taupō community in the last 4 years.
We wish you all the best for the future.
Thank you for your understanding. Take good care of yourself and your loved ones.
Kind regards,
Julie and Loic
We hope that the practitioners below will be able to keep you healthy

Loïc Van Hille
Originally from Belgium, I graduated with a Masters Degree in Osteopathy from the European School of Osteopathy (ESO) in Maidstone (UK).
After graduating, I have been part of a large osteopathic clinic in Whangarei (NZ) for 3 years where I gained a lot of knowledge and experience in different fields of osteopathy, from babies through to sports injuries and elderlies. I consider the body as a whole, a unit and I always aim at restoring my patient's normal function and balance via a large variety of techniques during my treatments:
-
Cranial osteopathy for babies and adults after traumas and/or stress,
-
Visceral techniques after traumas and to address a wide range of other complaints,
-
Pre and Post-natal treatment to help with labour and recovery for both mom and baby,
-
Musculoskeletal techniques to address mechanical restrictions and sports injuries
-
Exercises and Rehabilitation advice to maximise recovery between sessions.
I am a keen skier and runner who enjoys the outdoors in general.
I love talking about sports, travels and sharing experiences

Julie Lafond
I graduated with a Masters Degree in Osteopathy from the British School of Osteopathy (BSO) in London (UK).
With experience treating patients suffering from a wide range of complaints (having treated in a variety of clinics including a GP surgery, homeless clinic, expectant mothers and children's clinic), I focus on improving patient's general biomechanics and mobility, thus reducing dysfunction in the body. My priority with every patient is to ensure safety and efficacy of treatment plan.
My training at the BSO allows me to offer:
-
Visceral treatment for digestive complaints
-
A wide range of techniques to ease the musculoskeletal pain
-
Obstetric care for expectant mothers with early stages symptoms such as morning sickness to pre-labour complaints
-
Deep tissue massage to release tension
-
Rehabilitation care after trauma and surgery
-
Lifestyle management as well as exercise advice.
I also have a postgraduate specialisation in paediatric care from the BSO, in which I treat reflux, digestive complaints and unsettled babies.
I am also a huge fan of tennis and likes taking part in every sport available.
