BodySwitch Bodyswitch was founded in 2011 by Frank Jonkers. Frank previously worked as an entrepreneur in ICT and had to deal with serious obesity and other health problems. He has studied the influence that nutrition, lifestyle and exercise have on health. During his search for optimal health, Frank Jonkers came into contact with orthomolecular medicine. He followed various studies and in 2011 he opened his BodySwitch practice in Heemskerk. The knowledge and experience gained formed the basis for BodySwitch's unique treatment approach.
The effective and successful treatments created the demand to open more branches. BodySwitch has since grown into a franchise organization with sixteen locations in Alkmaar, Amsterdam, Arnhem, Badhoevedorp, Bussum, Eindhoven-North, Gilze-Rijen, Gouda, Heemskerk, Leiden, Nijkerk, Rotterdam-East, Tiel and Wageningen. Our ambition is to further roll out the BodySwitch concept in the coming years and to open new branches throughout the Netherlands.
Help as many people as possible to become and stay "Naturally Healthy". That's what we stand for. We help our customers to quickly feel healthier and fitter with the aim of getting rid of their physical and mental complaints in a sustainable way. With this we want to make a crucial contribution to the happiness and health of our customers.
Healthy food and lifestyle are the foundation of our treatments. We have developed a unique approach, in which we first look for the cause of the complaints. Our treatment is derived from scientific research and orthomolecular medicine. BodySwitch wants to bring positive change in healthcare.
We have formulated four core values that form the basis of our treatments:
We believe in a change in healthcare. Healthy diet and lifestyle are the key to solving many physical and mental complaints. Chronic diseases can often be prevented or reversed by eating healthier and living more consciously. We strive to be the leading healthcare provider and authority in lifestyle medicine.
The Netherlands has about 7 million chronically ill people in 2019. We want to make a social difference in lowering the costs of healthcare by tackling the cause of health complaints. This is the only way to a healthier society with lower healthcare costs.
Kwaliteit van zorg door onze specialisten staat hoog in het vaandel geschreven. Onze specialisten zijn hoogopgeleid (HBO+) en lidmaatschap door de beroepsvereniging MBOG is vereist voor aansluiting bij het BodySwitch netwerk. De MBOG bevordert de deskundige uitoefening van de Orthomoleculaire Geneeskunde.
Daarnaast is door intensieve samenwerking en uitwisseling van kennis en ervaring tussen onze specialisten een optimale zorg bij elk van onze praktijken in het BodySwitch netwerk gewaarborgd. Mocht een cliënt(e) onverhoopt toch opmerkingen of klachten hebben over de behandeling door een van de specialisten, dan bestaat daarvoor een specifieke procedure die valt onder de Wet Kwaliteit, Klachten en Geschillen Zorg (https://kab-koepel.nl/klachten.asp).
