Team - Thomas

I am Thomas Maeseele, a fully qualified physiotherapist in sports rehabilitation, Manual Therapy and Dry Needling / Myofascial therapist. Because of my passion for everything to do with movement/exercise,
I gave skiing and snowboarding lessons at the Austrian Ski School in Vorarlberg and nowadays I am mainly active in wall climbing and mountain biking.

In my free time I also practice yoga and I am doing hiking, horse riding, slack lining, diving and surfing.
During my studies at the Free University of Brussels (VUB) I worked at the Stellenbosch Academy of Sports (SAS) with athletes from the Western Provence Rugby Institute and the South African National Rugby Sevens team (Springboks).
I also worked in Cape Town at the Sports Performance and Rehabilitation Center (SPARC) with surfers, climbers, trail runners, cyclists (road and off-road) and Ghost Ultimate Frisbee Club.
