SMC-IJmond

What SMC-IJmond does

SMC-IJmond is a privately held, owner-operated physiotherapy and rehabilitation practice headquartered in Beverwijk, North Holland, with a second clinic in Uitgeest. Founded under the predecessor name OCA in 1996 and run by owner Rob Jonker since 1999, the practice operates as a multidisciplinary medical center delivering physiotherapy, sports medicine, medical fitness, diagnostic ultrasound, and occupational health services to general public patients, chronic disease populations (COPD, heart failure, claudicatio intermittens, oncology, rheumatoid arthritis), amateur sports clubs, and corporate clients in the IJmond/Kennemerland region.

The service portfolio is anchored on three core product lines: Fysiotherapie (Physiotherapy) covering manual therapy, sports physiotherapy, McKenzie therapy, dry needling, medical taping, FOI, ultrasound imaging, and specialized chronic disease programs; Medisch Fitness, a subscription-based supervised exercise program for patients with medical limitations; and Werk en Gezondheid (Work and Health), delivering ergonomic evaluations and occupational health services through the TIGRA Gezondheidsmanagement national network. Ancillary services include 3D gait analysis with computer-milled custom orthotics, a fall prevention program for seniors, and a volunteer-driven shuttle service for post-operative patients. Technology is conventional clinical equipment rather than proprietary software, with ultrasound imaging as the principal diagnostic tool.

Revenue is generated through five streams: Dutch health insurance reimbursement for standard physiotherapy (the largest component), out-of-pocket medical fitness subscriptions, private fees for uninsured or non-covered services (priced €22-€77 per service in 2025), one-time sale of custom orthotics (€197 per pair), and corporate occupational health contracts delivered through the TIGRA network. The practice accepts self-referrals, GP referrals, and specialist referrals, and markets via Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, email newsletters, sports club partnerships, and hospital/clinic referral relationships. It is not venture-backed, has no disclosed revenue figures, and operates as a single-owner independent healthcare provider with approximately 13 clinical FTE plus administrative staff and volunteer shuttle drivers.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights5 records

Broad incumbents

• Reade: Large Amsterdam-based rehabilitation center offering physiotherapy, occupational therapy and sports medicine. Comparable multidisciplinary rehabilitation focus but operates at institutional scale with hospital-grade facilities.
• Arbo Unie: Major Dutch occupational health provider offering workplace health, absenteeism reduction and preventive examinations — comparable B2B occupational health service line to SMC-IJmond's TIGRA practice, but at national scale.
• TIGRA Gezondheidsmanagement: National occupational-health network with 25+ locations that SMC-IJmond is part of. Comparable as the umbrella brand offering corporate health services, workplace assessments and preventive examinations across the Netherlands.

Emerging players

• Fysius Rugexperts: Dutch chain specializing in back and neck complaints (including McKenzie therapy). Comparable in sub-specialty depth and Dutch reimbursement exposure, but narrower focus than SMC-IJmond's broader portfolio.

Direct peers

• Sport- en Revalidatiecentrum Kennemerland (SRK): Regional Kennemerland physiotherapy and rehabilitation partner within the TIGRA network. Directly comparable in geography, specialty mix (sport, rehabilitation, manual therapy) and corporate health service delivery.
• FysioHolland: Largest organized physiotherapy chain in the Netherlands with 200+ locations. Direct competitor for clinical physiotherapy services, but operates at materially greater scale with centralized back-office and recruitment advantages.
• FYSIOPRACT: Dutch physiotherapy practice group offering general physiotherapy, manual therapy and sports rehabilitation across multiple sites — directly comparable service mix and Dutch healthcare reimbursement exposure.
• Nieuw Groenendaal Fysiotherapie: Third regional Kennemerland partner within the TIGRA network alongside SMC-IJmond. Comparable in offering general physiotherapy, sports rehabilitation and occupational health services in the same catchment.

Others

• Basic-Fit / Sportschool Medical Fitness operators: Large Dutch fitness chains increasingly offering medical fitness and supervised training for chronic conditions. Indirectly competitive for SMC-IJmond's medical-fitness subscription revenue from lower-acuity patients.

Regional players

• CURA in Beweging: Multi-site physiotherapy group in North Holland offering general physiotherapy, sports rehab and corporate services. Comparable in regional focus and service mix but not active in the IJmond micro-catchment.
