Pradeep’s Mom

“Pradeep is really smart, handsome and overall a really nice guy”

Asscher Annink

“Na het boksen een polsblessure opgelopen. Door Movement Clinic goed geholpen met een identificeren van het probleem en daar passende oefeningen bij gekregen. Geholpen door specialist Jakob Berger. Professioneel, ervaren en een vriendelijk persoon. Aanrader!”

Pavel Smirnov

Pradeep helped me with two sports injuries. His guidance and expertise were instrumental in the quick recovery that allowed me to return to my sports activities. It’s also worth to mention his friendliness and positive attitude. Highly recommend.
