Annemarie.
Annemarie combines a background in movement, philosophy and bodywork into a thoughtful and attentive way of working. From years of yoga teaching to training in relaxation massage, deep tissue and fascia techniques, her sessions create space for the body to soften and unwind. Currently training as an osteopath, she continues to deepen her understanding of how the body communicates and heals.
Her connection to movement started early, through dance, and still shows in the natural flow of her sessions. With a PhD in philosophy, she brings a reflective and curious quality to her work, creating space not just for the body, but also for rest and insight. Warm, intuitive and attentive, Annemarie has a natural ability to make people feel at ease.

What people are saying.
“Annemarie using parasympathetic nervous system by breathing technique. Consequently, not just physically relaxed, but emotionally relief as well. She is very professional and talented, by not rushing the customer, carefully "listening" to your body needs and make your body more relaxed. I went to many places in Amsterdam, this one is the best so far! Very recommended!”

“I have had my second visit with Annemarie and my experience is great, very professional, helpful and therapeutic! I would be coming back to Tension Tamers for sure.”

“As I had to "force" myself to relax, Annemarie understood exactly what I needed. She gave me a relaxation massage, which provided the relaxation I needed to start my holiday in Amsterdam. Not only did she precisely target the right muscles, but she also gave me valuable advice after the massage to check my posture with some exercises. I have been doing them until today and will continue in the future (they have helped me a lot). Thanks again to Annemarie for her great work and wonderful personality. Next time, I'll book a longer massage.”
