What to expect from this care A diëtist is an allied health professional trained to use nutrition in recovery and illness. After birth the focus is mostly on replenishing: iron after blood loss, vitamin B12 and D, iodine and calcium while breastfeeding, and enough protein to repair tissue. "Diëtist" is a protected educational title in the Netherlands — a voedingscoach (nutrition coach) or orthomolecular therapist is something else entirely, and does not fall under the same training requirements, registration or reimbursement.
Mothers usually come to this kind of care for things like repeated infections or slow healing, hair loss and brittle nails after birth and nutrition while breastfeeding. An intake takes about an hour. You go through what you eat, how you sleep, how the birth went and whether there was significant blood loss. The dietitian looks at recent blood values if you have them — otherwise they will request them via your GP — and builds a plan that fits a day with a baby in it, not an ideal week.

What we do not know yet. This page is compiled from public sources. What this practice actually offers, what it costs, how long the waiting time is and which registrations the practitioners hold have not been confirmed by the practice itself. We do not fill those gaps with an assumption. Ask the practice, or check registrations yourself — the BIG register and the Kwaliteitsregister Paramedici are free and public.

Frequently asked questions
What is Balancia and what can I find here?
Balancia is listed in this guide as a dietitian in Dijk en Waard, province of Noord-Holland. A diëtist is an allied health professional trained to use nutrition in recovery and illness. After birth the focus is mostly on replenishing: iron after blood loss, vitamin B12 and D, iodine and calcium while breastfeeding, and enough protein to repair tissue. "Diëtist" is a protected educational title in the Netherlands — a voedingscoach (nutrition coach) or orthomolecular therapist is something else entirely, and does not fall under the same training requirements, registration or reimbursement. What this specific practice offers has not been confirmed by the practice itself — ask about it at first contact.
Do I need an appointment, or can I walk in?
Yes, you need an appointment; the source explicitly states that visits are by appointment. You can book by phone on +31 6 15584718 and through the website. Mention that you have recently given birth — it helps them schedule enough time.
What are the opening hours?
According to the source: Mon–Tue 09:30–17:00, Wed closed, Thu 09:30–17:00, Fri–Sun closed. Those are the hours the practice is open, not necessarily when an appointment is free — the diary may be full further ahead. Hours also change during Dutch school holidays. Call or check the website for the current situation.
What does it cost, and is it covered by insurance?
Three hours of dietary advice per calendar year, from the basic insurance, with a contracted dietitian. Those three hours include the time the dietitian spends on your file outside your appointments, so in practice it works out at roughly four to five consultations. There is no statutory personal contribution (eigen bijdrage), but it does come out of your own risk (eigen risico), which is €385 in 2026. If you need more, supplementary insurance can cover additional hours. Different rules apply for care delivered through a chronic disease programme (ketenzorg) — there the own risk does not apply. What this particular practice charges for a consultation, and whether it has a contract with your specific health insurer, is not in our source. Ask for the fee before you book.

Na jarenlang getob met netelroos klachten af en aan (soms héél hevig), en na jarenlang door huisarts en dermatoloog geadviseerd medicijn gebruik, dat soms demping bracht, maar uiteindelijk ook niet meer werkte, had ik genoeg van het reguliere medische circuit en ben me gaan verdiepen in het “alterna

Ik adviseer jorien ten zeerste! Ik zat met mijn handen in het haar en wist niet wat ik met alle verschillende adviezen van zowel huisarts als medisch specialist moest doen. Ik wist wel dat ik geen sterke medicatie wilde en hoopte daarom dat er een mogelijkheid was om mijn darm afwijking toch via een

Mega goed geholpen! Na mijn bevalling bleef ik 's nachts maar zweten (hormonaal). Elders geholpen (osteopathie), maar klachten keerden steeds weer terug. Jorien heeft mij na één consult geholpen om van het zweten af te komen uiteindelijk! Ze adviseerde de juiste supplementen en gaf diverse adviezen.
