“We want more glasses and fewer pills in healthcare because prevention is the best medicine.”

A strong combination
of disciplines
We are enthusiastic, creative and driven people from the healthcare, science and ICT industry. Together with patients and care providers, we have developed a VR app that relaxes, distracts and makes you happy. At VRelax we believe in this new dimension of care, in which self-management is central and people mentally strengthen through innovative application of 360° image/sound and interactive game elements.
More than 230 hospitals, companies and mental health institutions already work with VRelax. As a result, we know exactly what works and what does not work when implementing VR in healthcare practice. Get to know the team responsible for day-to-day operations below.
We promise the best quality
relaxation in Virtual Reality
Reducing feelings of stress and learning to relax are important pillars of good psychological health. But this is easier said than done. That is why we have developed VRelax, because this product has a fast and strong effect on body and mind. VRelax changes the way care is provided and gives users more self-direction and control.
Science, certification and co-creation with end users form the basis for our high-quality and ground-breaking apps. They are easy to use, safe, reliable, practical and always available. Our expert team also ensures the correct implementation and that our apps fit seamlessly with existing processes.

How others see me? Always on a mission with clear goals and determined to get there. Looking for acceleration and growth. See and seize opportunities! The role of others is not forgotten in this. An emotional person… But doesn't mince words and is always honest. Say what you do and do what you say. (Stubborn) wise, averse to politics and likes to kick holy houses. Please act as a representative of the club.
With conviction she works together with patients, clients, healthcare professionals, researchers and clinicians on solutions that help people move forward. Building and testing prototypes together, learning together as part of the innovation process is fascinating to her. The moment people "have to do something" because it is simply arranged that way, she becomes curious. She questions and playfully researches the rules and structures within organisations. She is a rethinker, co-thinker and capable of translating issues into concrete solutions. co-creation + implementation = innovation!
She started her career as a maternity nurse. She then studied HRM and change management and completed a Master Healthy Aging Professional. Marieke therefore always works from the question "do patients and populations benefit?". But she finds the principle "happy patients, happy nurses" to be just as important.
We are all facing major challenges and will have to move towards other new forms of healthcare. Together and in co-creation we are making steps towards this future with VRelax!

As one of the Founders, Fabian is jointly responsible for the creative course of the company within VRelax. In addition, he is involved in the production of all interactive VRelax worlds and regularly flies around the world in search of beautiful and inspiring places.
With an infectious passion he can talk about audio and what he expects in the future in the field of sound in digital media and digital art. His motivation is therefore to use the power of audio to make experiences more beautiful, to create impact and to amaze.
Within VRelax he is responsible for all audio content. With his expertise, he makes the difference by creating effective audio experiences that help other people to relax and experience the most natural sound experience possible within the application. For this he does not limit himself only to technology, but also looks at the effect of sound in the psychological, physiological, behavioral and cognitive areas.
Since then, he has been developing and researching new VR applications with his VR mental health lab, and is working on the implementation of VR in healthcare. At VRelax BV he translates psychological and physiological knowledge of stress into the form and content of the VRelax app, and he is responsible for scientific research into VRelax.
