Sports physical therapist
Kevin van Geel
The movements of athletes continue to fascinate me. But in addition, as a physical therapist, I see the impact it has if there is a disturbance somewhere in that movement. It is my passion to make those movements work as well as possible and if they work well, to improve them to perfection. In recent years, Kevin has specialized in the treatment of sports-related complaints mainly of the knee, hip and ankle. With his specialization in cruciate ligament rehabilitation, he is therefore a specialist affiliated with the FC cruciate ligament network. After basic physical therapy training, Kevin graduated as a master sports physical therapist in 2020. As a sports physiotherapist Kevin has an active approach and wants to look beyond just the complaint, By looking at the entire movement pattern, possibly maintaining factors are detected and addressed to prevent complaints in the future. In cooperation with Fysio Fitaal, Kevin is also the sports physiotherapist of the Afghan national soccer team and several other top athletes he will supervise in the practice.
Besides his work being sports, Kevin runs a lot and you can find him on the soccer field on Sundays. He likes to spend the remaining time with his infant son.

Arjan Naaijkens
Passion for sports started on the soccer field. Later I started working in the fitness industry where I was soon able to help people improve their sports performance. Gradually I noticed that people were often limited in their sports or daily movement by (pain) symptoms. Here began a new challenge for me, helping people with the quality of their movement. The most important thing in this profession is listening and empathy. Working with people makes that no two days are the same.
Now 8 years owner of Fysiofitaal where I work in a super team with great pleasure!
Outside of work, I am a dad of a daughter. And I enjoy exercising myself in the gym and outdoors.

I love to keep developing and improving myself continuously and that is what makes working at Fysio Fitaal so much fun. Innovating and improving yourself and the field together with colleagues. My passion within the physiotherapy profession lies especially in the field of orthopedic surgery with a focus on rehabilitation after a hip or knee prosthesis.
In addition to my work as a physical therapist, I am active as a content creator. It is great to see how we can use graphic design to inform and educate our patients regarding their own rehabilitation process.

Yannick Ricardo
I am currently a physical therapist in training at Fysio Fitaal and working as a physical therapist/medical staff at soccer club FC Tilburg. I myself have always been a soccer player but all sports interest me! The main reason I chose physical therapy is the fact that I like to help people move pain-free in daily life or during their sports.
