Osteopathy

Osteopathy acts on musculoskeletal imbalances and tensions that disrupt daily life. It fits naturally into a comprehensive care pathway, particularly for chronic back pain and neck pain.

Dr Thomas von Waldburg is an orthopaedic surgeon and D.O. osteopath, specialising in particular in spinal and hip conditions. Having graduated in medicine in Strasbourg, he obtained his specialisation in orthopaedics in 1998, followed by his degree in osteopathy from the Belgian College of Osteopathy in Brussels in 2008.

Drawing on this dual expertise and more than 15 years of osteopathic practice, he now practises osteopathy exclusively at the Châtelain Orthopaedic Centre. At the same time, he continues his orthopaedic consultations at his other practice locations, notably at the Hôpitaux Iris Sud. He is also a clinical supervisor at the ULB and head of the osteopathy department at the Hôpitaux Iris Sud.

A graduate in osteopathy following university training at the Université libre de Bruxelles (ULB), I practise with the desire to provide care that is rigorous, compassionate and individualised.

For four years, I have also been an anatomy assistant at the ULB Faculty of Medicine, an activity that nourishes my clinical practice by maintaining a close link with medical sciences and the understanding of the human body.

I practise in both hospital and private clinic settings, which allows me to support a diverse patient base. I care for adults, pregnant women, as well as infants and young children, adapting each treatment to everyone's specific needs.

My care is aimed at patients presenting with musculoskeletal issues, functional limitations or those wishing to regain better movement comfort. I place great importance on listening, explaining symptoms and developing a treatment tailored to everyone's needs and goals.

Convinced that the best results rely on a collaborative and multidisciplinary approach, I work closely with doctors, physiotherapists and other health professionals at the centre to offer coherent, coordinated care centred on the patient's needs.

Alongside my clinical practice, I am currently studying physiotherapy. This approach is part of a commitment to continuous professional development and to enriching my practice, in order to offer you an increasingly comprehensive, complementary care approach based on the best current knowledge.

My goal is to support you with kindness, in an atmosphere of trust, by providing you with tools suited to your situation, so that you can regain the most comfortable and autonomous functioning possible.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you need to know to prepare for your visit to the centre and approach your treatment with complete peace of mind.

No, a medical prescription is not required to see a doctor, regardless of the speciality. Only physiotherapy sessions require a prescription in order to be reimbursed by your health insurance.

Reimbursement depends on the fee-agreement status of the practitioner consulted, as some have opted out of the national health insurance scheme. The fee-agreement status of each practitioner is indicated when booking the appointment.

This is the strength of our multidisciplinary approach. Our surgeons, physicians, physiotherapists and osteopaths all share the same secure medical record. This allows us to design your treatment plan together and monitor your progress in real time.

The simplest way is to use our online direct booking modules (available via Rosa on our Contact page). There, you can choose your practitioner and time slot in just a few clicks. For any urgent matters, our reception desk remains reachable by email at contact@orthochatelain.com.
