What drives me is helping other people and contributing to their quality of life. I also want to get the best out of myself and test the limits of what I can do in everything I do. I must have kept that from my time in the Armed Forces…
After first having a great job as an Officer in the Royal Netherlands Air Force, I reached an important turning point in my life at around 25… Would I still get enough satisfaction from the next roles in this career? I didn’t think so, so I chose a radical change; I was going to support people with their health as a physiotherapist!
I haven’t regretted this choice for a moment, because it has truly become my passion. I get a lot of satisfaction from the happiness clients express when, together, we’ve made sure their quality of life has improved a great deal.
After working at various physiotherapy practices, I increasingly felt that I wanted to start a practice that matched my way of thinking. After first gaining more experience through various training programmes and courses, the moment came in April 2021; the birth of FysioGrow!
I started FysioGrow with the intention of helping people in the best possible way with their pain and movement problems. We work with a truly tailored approach, because there are so many differences between the people we treat.. that’s why everyone is welcome with us!
We listen carefully to your story. So you’ve developed pain somewhere, but what exactly is causing it? To find out, we need to look further than just that painful spot. We look at how joints and muscle chains work together, the physical load on your body, posture patterns, psychological stress, other physiology (nutrition, hormonal factors, chronic causes, scar tissue, etc.). But emotions can also play a role in developing pain. Often there are things going on in people’s subconscious that can affect how they experience pain. All things we want to have clear so we can draw up the best treatment plan!
One of my specialisations at FysioGrow is the treatment of tailbone pain (coccygodynia). For this I use a specific manual correction technique (EMCC), with which I’ve successfully helped many clients for whom treatment elsewhere had run out of options.
The goal for the coming years is to grow FysioGrow into a practice where physiotherapy is offered at the highest level. Training our own staff in our method will make sure as many people as possible walk out of FysioGrow feeling satisfied. I’m really looking forward to this future!
The complex puzzle of the human body
The complex puzzle of the human body simply takes some time to solve. A physiotherapy session normally lasts 25 minutes. In my view, it’s not enough to only treat the limited movement and/or the pain. For a lasting result, we also need to map out lifestyle patterns or properly analyse your sports load. And there has to be room for that during the session!
At FysioGrow there is that room. Because we take 50 minutes for you, we can get more done in each session. That keeps the total number of sessions down. After 5 sessions we always take stock. But if you’re done sooner, we stop before then, of course!
Together we look for the sources of your health problem. At first I work ‘hands-on’ with effective techniques to help you move better. Then we switch to ‘hands-off’. We work on the best possible mobility, strength and stability. You also gain a lot of insight into what you can change in your daily life to tackle the cause of the pain. That way you stay healthy and pain-free for the long term!

I’m really happy with the treatment of my back, neck and shoulder problems. Everything was explained clearly, from what the problem was to what I could do myself in terms of exercises and what effect each exercise would have on my back and shoulders. Everything was done in a very professional and friendly way.
