Stuck with Medically Unexplained Symptoms or in the Spanish healthcare system as an expat on the Costa Blanca?

Perhaps this sounds familiar: “you’ve tried everything, but it feels as though the bigger picture is being overlooked.”

Thomas M. Pfaff (MSc. D.O.):

“I analyse your entire care pathway and guide you towards a targeted solution — with osteopathy and medical care coordination.”

How can I help you?

At Enlace IMC, we believe your body consists of interconnected systems, not isolated islands. Do you recognise any of the complaints below? Discover how we can help you.

You have symptoms. Perhaps for months already:

Meanwhile, you continue to live with pain and uncertainty.

Many expats come to me when their pathway has become stuck: disjointed treatments, various specialists, but no one overseeing the whole.
 
In such cases, I don’t just look at your complaint, but at your entire care pathway.
 

Chronic complaints often have roots in prolonged stress or unprocessed emotions. Thomas integrates manual techniques with psychosomatic insights.

 
“I connect scientific knowledge with the trinity of body, soul and spirit.”  – Thomas

The Enlace kPNI Approach

Steps Towards Holistic Wellbeing​

At our centre, we investigate how different bodily systems continuously influence one another; Psyche: Your thoughts, emotions and social safety, Neuro: Your nervous system and brain, and Immunology: Your immune system and hormones.

At Enlace IMC, you are not a passive patient. We help you to regain balance and agency over your own life and vitality. We do this in 4 steps:

  • 1. The Timeline Analysis

    Within your own Enlace Smart Private File, we analyse your medical history 24 hours prior to the intake and create a timeline of 'stressful life events'. This way, we spot patterns that others miss.

  • 2. Total Health Check

    No longer looking solely at "the pain spot", but at the source of physical blockages in time, your medical history and lifestyle, and fixed patterns in the psyche, neuro- and immunology, your medical history and lifestyle — so you receive an osteopathic treatment tailored to your body and situation.

  • 3. We Orchestrate

    With osteopathic treatment, you often experience rapid relief from pain and tension. Where necessary, I use advanced analyses to find connections that are frequently missed in conventional pathways.

  • 4. CEO of Your Own Health

    Within Enlace Care, you learn through Deep Learning how to protect your own health in the future, by doing or avoiding specific things. Through Vision on Health and Prevention!

You no longer have to navigate the healthcare system alone!

Thomas M. Pfaff, MSc. D.O.

With my 20+ year background in osteopathy, health sciences, kPNI and multidisciplinary collaboration, I view health complaints differently than a standard practice.

In addition to osteopathy, I am specialised in psychosomatics. In this unique combination, I focus on the interaction between body and mind. Many physical complaints actually originate in prolonged stress, unprocessed emotions or trauma. These tensions can become lodged in the body and lead to complaints such as chronic pain, fatigue or unexplained physical symptoms.
 
Through a combination of classical osteopathic techniques and psychosomatic methods, I help you resolve both physical and emotional blockages in the body.

At Enlace Premium Osteopathy Care, you don’t just receive a treatment — we oversee your pathway and help you adjust course, with a Holistic Vision on Health and Prevention!

From Treatment to Total Overview

For clients whose complaints are more complex or involve multiple systems simultaneously, I work differently.
 
In addition to my work as an osteopath, I also offer:
Within this pathway, we don’t just look at one complaint or treatment, but at the complete picture:
 

Which approach suits you?

Some clients start directly within an extensive care guidance pathway.
 
For others, a first osteopathy intake is a logical and low-threshold beginning.
 
Important to know:
 
If during the pathway it becomes apparent that more is going on or a broader approach is needed, we can always scale up together to a form of guidance that better suits your situation.

For Whom & Complaints?

Many clients who visit my practice in Dénia initially come for a concrete complaint — back pain, tension, fatigue or persistent physical discomfort.
 
But in practice, I often see something else.

When Osteopathy Is Not the Whole Answer

The complaint is rarely standalone.
 
Multiple factors are at play simultaneously — physical, mental and sometimes also lifestyle- or care-related.
 
Perhaps you recognise this:
 
• You’ve already tried various treatments
 
• Complaints keep returning or change form
 
• There is no clear diagnosis, but it feels that “more is going on”
 
• You lack overview or agency in your health
 

In such situations, osteopathy can be valuable — but it is not always sufficient as a standalone intervention.

In situations where multiple care providers are involved, complaints persist for a long time or previous treatments have been insufficient, a standalone treatment is often no longer adequate.
 
Then agency, overview and coherence in the care pathway are essential.

Liaison Spain — International

For expats and retirees who regularly move between the Netherlands and Spain, continuity of care is often a challenge.

That is why I work alternately in Alicante and Utrecht, according to a fixed rhythm of 21 days in Spain and 9 days in the Netherlands.
 
I am regularly in the Netherlands for consultations with care partners and institutions, so that lines remain short and coordination runs efficiently.
 
Do you need to align or organise matters (partially) in the Netherlands?
 
We can easily incorporate this within your pathway.
