What PMC Groep does

PMC Groep is a private Dutch physiotherapy group practice headquartered in Rijnsburg, South Holland, Netherlands, operating six clinic locations distributed across Katwijk, Rijnsburg, Oegstgeest, and Valkenburg. Founded in 2007 and led by practice owner Frans van der Zwart, the company delivers direct-to-consumer physiotherapy and rehabilitation services spanning more than 15 specializations, including manual therapy, sports physiotherapy, pediatric and geriatric physiotherapy, pelvic floor therapy, psychosomatic physiotherapy, and cardiovascular/pulmonary rehabilitation, alongside treatment modalities such as ultrasound imaging (echography), EPTE, shockwave therapy, dry needling, TENS, and medical fitness. Patients access services without GP referral, with appointments typically available within 2-3 days.

The underlying service model is a multi-clinic paramedical practice that combines manual and exercise therapy with modern diagnostic and treatment equipment. PMC Groep uses ultrasound imaging for real-time diagnostic assessment of muscles, tendons, and joints, and integrates psychosomatic therapy into its treatment pathways. The organization is a member of national specialized care networks including ParkinsonNet and MS Zorg Nederland, and holds Qualiview certification with a 9.2/10 patient satisfaction rating and an 80% six-week improvement rate.

Revenue is generated primarily through professional services reimbursed under Dutch health insurance, with PMC Groep maintaining direct billing contracts with all major Dutch insurers except two. The practice serves a fragmented mix of individual patient segments — athletes, geriatric patients, pediatric patients, neurological and respiratory patients — with pricing tied to Dutch insurer tariffs (including the chronic-indication rule requiring self-pay for the first 20 treatments). Marketing relies on a content-driven website, Instagram presence, email newsletter, and Google Reviews, with growth driven by geographic expansion and service-line breadth rather than funding or acquisition.
