Lessons with Alfons

“Your touch is amazing! Maybe you have a mission to teach the world” – Catherina D., Journalist

“Alfons is a warm and understanding teacher. After receiving his lessons I have been able to feel more at peace and flexible. Thank you Alfons.” – Samantha Brown, Bowen Therapist

“I had a herniated disc problem that bothered me for months and little progress in recovery. My wife had the idea to supplement my visits to my Osteopath with Feldenkrais, that's why I looked up Alfons. His touch was very subtle and light, so it's still a miracle to me how it worked. But my Osteopath told me he had never seen such a quick and full recovery before. I'm fully recovered and can certainly recommend Alfons.” – Nathan B., CEO
