Who I am

My name is Filomena Marforio. Originally from Switzerland, I am half Swiss, half Italian and currently reside in Amsterdam.

I have been a massage therapist since 1996 (learned in Thailand), with a diploma from Zurich. With great pleasure I have been helping my clients to greater health and to becoming pain free.

I have quickly learned that this is my calling and therefore, I have continued to educate myself further. The enthusiasm of my clients still motivates me after all these years.

I started planning this project after I had accompanied over 1500 guests during the course of six months in Portugal in 2006 (health resort Vitalisè).

Through my experience over the years I know that FiloSan will be treasured as a positive and unforgettable experience and you will experience firsthand how good it is to feel purified, healthy and vital and pain free.

What I do

Diverse Massages are in cooperation with chiropractors and physiotherapists.

Traditional Thai massage :With fingers, thumbs and elbow pressure on the meridian lines, blockades are found and treated with stretching techniques. The Energy flow is free to stream again. Pain disappears and you will feel energized again. This Massage is held on the ground.

Relaxation massage

Relaxation massage is a combination of kneading techniques, foot reflex, aura cleaning and energy flow, it helps you to relax your body and mind, circulation and detoxing are activated and you will feel new born.

Foot reflex

Foot reflex is a specialized massage on the foot sole to stimulate the organ functions and blood circulation and helps relaxing the whole body as well.

Medical A

Medical A is a specialized exercise with small range of motion to strengthen the muscle group which is still hurt even after some therapy.

Triggerpoint

Triggerpoint is an often discussed method. I believe in the Myofascinare points in our body (attachments between connective tissue and muscle) to be relieved. The possibility to feel pain after the treatment is common the following day, however afterwards you will feel a prolonged relief as your body regenerates.

Nutrition

“Thank you Filosan. Yes, I liked the Reck&Roll very much and definitively would like to continue if possible. Easy and targeted movements that address exactly those spots of the body suffering from endless sitting and zooming. You are Also a very friendly trainer. I know the studio in the Kerkstraat (Tai Chi) – good vibes! We need them 😊”

I’m with Filosan now for 2.5 years and it turned my world totally around. I’m stronger from the exercise ( Pilates) and I’m looser than ever after a massages. Filomena has a great way to make me feel comfortable and at ease. I keep her in my lifestyle.
