Meet Edric
HELPING PEOPLE MOVE BETTER, FEEL BETTER, AND RETURN TO THE ACTIVITIES THEY LOVE.
About Edric
I'm Edric, a physiotherapist with a passion for helping people move with confidence, live without unnecessary pain, and stay active for life.
I believe movement is one of the most powerful tools for improving health, confidence, longevity, and quality of life. While pain relief is often the reason people seek physiotherapy, I don't believe it should be the final goal. Pain relief is the starting point.
My goal is to help people understand their bodies, regain confidence in movement, and return to the activities that matter most to them. Whether that's running, training, playing with family, recovering from an injury, or simply moving through daily life without fear, physiotherapy should empower people rather than create dependency.
With over 10 years of training experience across strength training, callisthenics, streetlifting, powerlifting, and endurance sports, I understand the value of movement not only as rehabilitation, but as a foundation for long-term health and performance.
After completing my physiotherapy education and sports nutrition studies in the Netherlands, I returned to Aruba with a vision: to create a clinic that combines evidence-based physiotherapy, rehabilitation, education, and performance-focused care under one philosophy.
That philosophy became ELEVA.
ELEVA was founded on the belief that everyone has untapped potential. Through better movement, better health, and greater confidence, my goal is to help people elevate their quality of life and continue doing the things they love for years to come.
Whether you're recovering from injury, dealing with pain, returning to sport, or simply looking to stay active as you age, my mission remains the same:
