My name is Anouk, and I am a physiotherapist with a great passion for sports and physical activity. As a speed skater, I used to compete regularly, and through sport I became increasingly interested in how the body works, what it takes to improve performance, and how to keep your body healthy and strong. This interest eventually led me to study physiotherapy.
I still enjoy being active today. In summer, I regularly go road cycling or mountain biking, while in winter I am happiest on my skates, skis, or snowboard. I also love travelling, spending time outdoors, and discovering new things. I enjoy challenging myself and continuously learning new sports and activities.
I believe it is important that treatment is tailored to the person in front of me. That is why I look beyond the complaint itself and focus on what is important to the individual and what they ultimately want to get back to. From there, we work together to create a plan with clear and achievable goals.
I like to take an active and practical approach. Exercise and training are important parts of my treatments, while always taking into account what someone is capable of at that moment. I find it rewarding when, throughout the treatment process, someone not only makes progress in their recovery but also regains confidence in their body.
My main area of expertise is oncological physiotherapy. I enjoy supporting people during and after their treatment, and I believe it is especially important during this period to focus on what someone can do. Maintaining and building strength, fitness, and physical capacity play an important role in this. I also value prehabilitation before surgery or treatment.
In addition, I enjoy working in sports rehabilitation and helping people gradually build up their physical capacity. With my background in various sports, I enjoy supporting people in returning to their sport or achieving a personal sporting goal.
