Your friendly guide to health & life in the Netherlands
Meet Rebeka
Moving to a new country
She’s been where you are
Moving to a new country is exciting—but it can also feel overwhelming. Between finding your way around, understanding new systems, and simply figuring out how things work, it’s a lot to navigate. That’s where Rebeka comes in.
This sporty Czech-American didn’t just visit the Netherlands—she made it her home. Since arriving in 2018, Rebeka has spent nearly a decade building her life here, and she knows firsthand what it’s like to start fresh in a foreign country. The confusion, the questions, the moments of feeling lost—she’s lived it all. And now, she’s here to make your journey easier.
Healthcare Navigator, Cultural Bridge & Multilingual Communicator
More than just your physiotherapist
Yes, Rebeka is an excellent physiotherapist. But for expats in Eindhoven, she’s so much more. She’s your:
Healthcare navigator
The Dutch healthcare system can feel like a puzzle. Rebeka knows every piece. She’ll help you understand:
How health insurance works in the Netherlands
What's covered and what's not
How to navigate the system without stress
When to see a GP, when to come directly to physio, and how it all connects
No more guessing or feeling anxious about healthcare decisions. Rebeka translates the system into something that makes sense.
Multilingual communicator
With fluency in four languages, Rebeka ensures nothing gets lost in translation.
Whether you’re more comfortable in English, Czech, or another language, you can express exactly how you’re feeling without struggling to find the right words.
When it comes to health, clear communication isn’t just nice—it’s essential.
Cultural bridge
After 10 years in the Netherlands, Rebeka has become part of the Dutch landscape while keeping her international perspective. She helps you:
Understand Dutch directness (it's not rude, just honest!)
Navigate cultural differences in healthcare communication
Feel comfortable in a system that might work differently than back home
Integrate into Dutch life while staying true to yourself
She gets both worlds and helps you bridge them.
Active Partnership
Rebeka’s philosophy: active partnership
Rebeka doesn’t believe in passive treatment. She believes in collaboration. Your health journey is a team effort, and you’re the captain. Her approach includes:
Preventive care
Keeping you healthy, not just fixing what’s broken
Active involvement
Teaching you exercises and strategies you can use independently
Clear communication
No medical jargon, just honest conversations
Personalized plans
Your lifestyle, your goals, your treatment plan

A Final Note from Rebeka
