My name is Linda Ots and I am a physiotherapist, acupuncture student, and a Reiki Master (4th Degree) with over 35 years of experience in seven different countries, and on three different continents. My passion is working with pain syndromes, acute and chronic orthopedic problems, and Women’s Health. I have extensive training in manual medicine, including: Craniosacral Therapy, lymph drainage, Myofascial Release, visceral manipulation, neuromuscular therapy, Strain/Counterstrain, dry needling, and Somato-Emotional Release. I have had the great fortune of training with Dr. John Upledger, Dr. Lawrence Jones, and Jan Dommerholdt, DPT, MPS.
My volunteer experience has included grief counseling for children and young widows/widowers with Hospice in the USA, and working with disabled children in Turkey and Bosnia. In the Washington DC area and in post-war Bosnia, I worked with those with chronic pain and women’s health issues, including those who suffered from the physical and psychological pain and trauma of rape, assault, and war.
I studied in the United States, and received my Bachelor’s, Master’s and Doctorate degrees from The University of Maryland, School of Medicine, The University of Indianapolis, and The Shenandoah University. I attended The Baltimore School of Massage and am in the final year of my acupuncture education at Qing-Bai Academie Voor Chinese Geneeswijze in The Netherlands.
