About Linda Radestad
Linda was 43 when she suffered a severe stroke in 2016. At that time, she was an entrepreneur and mother of three children. A natural problem solver, Linda decided to use her innovative and analytical skills to develop better solutions for fellow stroke survivors.
Out of the Box Thinking
Her publications include the book "Stroke Rebel" (free audiobook available at Stroke Rebel Audiobook) to demonstrate what is possible when thinking outside the box. Doctors told her she would never walk or talk again; she proved them wrong (see her TEDx talk).

Passionate About Recovery
Both Linda and Arjan are acutely aware of the lack of practical solutions for people who suffered a stroke. "The science is there; and we apply 'out-of-the-box' solutions and do everything we can to share it so that people know what is possible."
About Arjan Kuipers
Arjan developed his passion for solving brain-related issues after his mother suffered multiple head injuries leading to brainstem migraines, causing severe shaking, collapsing, and loss of speech.
He is a chiropractor specialized in functional neurology and brain rehabilitation, trained in the United Kingdom and the United States.
When his daughter was diagnosed with autism, he became even more dedicated to understanding brain developmental issues in children with learning and behavioral problems.
For over 30 years, he has been working in his practice. He continuously strives to deepen his knowledge and improve his skills based on the latest research and insights.
He employs treatment methods that are new and sometimes unique in the Netherlands but have proven their value elsewhere in the world. With his relentless energy, he dedicates himself every day to helping as many people as possible.
His publications include the books "Help! My Child has ADHD/Autism" and "Single Most Overlooked Problem in Back Patients".
