We understand that lipedema is not just about what you see on the outside—it also affects how you feel on the inside. That’s why we offer a personalized approach fully tailored to what you need. Together, we work on reducing symptoms and boosting your self-confidence, helping you feel comfortable in your own body again.
Empowering women to thrive beyond lipedema
Our Story
FraukjeI have lipedema myself but didn’t know what it was until I was 47 and received the diagnosis from a dermatologist. I used to work out regularly, doing both strength and cardio training, and I ate healthily. So why did my body look so different, and why did nothing seem to help? After years of struggling without answers, I decided to search for more information and support. I discovered not only what lipedema is but also how the right diet and mindset could significantly reduce my pain and help me regain balance in my life. Diet and exercise alone didn’t provide the results I was hoping for, so I started looking for additional solutions in the form of effective therapeutic massage treatments. That’s how I found Rachel, but even there, the waiting lists were endless. This sparked my passion to help others living with lipedema. More therapists are needed so that everyone can get timely help. Cooking is my passion, and I believe that food should not only be healthy but also delicious. I have a lot of experience with making healthy meals taste amazing, and I want to show that embracing a different way of eating doesn’t mean you have to compromise on flavor.
Michael
I’m Michael, Fraukje’s husband. I have witnessed her struggle with lipedema up close and understand how overwhelming this condition can be, both physically and emotionally. With my background in the military, where I focused a lot on coaching and personal development, combined with my experience as an avid athlete and mobility trainer, I now focus on providing practical movement advice for women with lipedema. Exercising with lipedema can be challenging, but with the right support, knowledge, and mindset, we can work together to ease the impact of lipedema. My goal is to help you regain confidence in your own body and to ensure that moving becomes a joy rather than a burden.
