✨ Meet Danyel Degenhardt, Physiotherapist ✨

Physical Pursuit Physiotherapy is excited to welcome Danyel Degenhardt to the team!

Danyel focuses on helping people living with complex and persistent pain regain confidence in their bodies and better understand their healing and recovery. His approach blends physiotherapy with pain science, exercise therapy, mindfulness, breathwork, and cognitive-behavioural strategies to create personalized treatment plans that truly work for each individual.

Danyel graduated with a Master of Science in Physiotherapy in 2012 and spent 8 years in New Zealand running his own private practice, specializing in persistent pain management. During that time he also taught Pain Neuroscience Education and Medical Hypnosis to both health professionals and people experiencing chronic pain.

His clinical perspective is also shaped by personal experience living with melorheostosis and haemochromatosis, giving him a unique understanding of rehabilitation and the mind-body connection.

Outside the clinic, Danyel enjoys spending time outdoors with his young family, studying the field of bubbleology, and teaching Haidong Gumdo, a traditional Korean sword martial art. ()

PHYSIO COURTNEY:

Courtney was born and raised in Summerland. She graduated with a Masters in Physiotherapy from the University of Queensland in 2016.

As a new graduate, she gained a wealth of knowledge from her mentorship with two titled Sports Physiotherapists in Alice Spring before to returning to Canada.

Her thirst for knowledge led her to another mentorship job working for Diane Lee. During her time at Diane Lee & Associates, Courtney finished the Integrative Systems Model (ISM) Series (more info on our website), became certified in ISM via a case study, assisted with online courses and found her passion for complex pain.

Before Kirk and Courtney opened Physical Pursuit Physiotherapy, she worked at Delta Health and Performance. She had the pleasure of treating elite hockey players of all ages and skill level. Through Delta Health she became a consultant Physiotherapist for the local NHL, WHL and AHL players during the COVID shutdown and their off-seasons. She was able to blend her love of sports therapy with her complex pain management through the lens of ISM.

Courtney’s main focus of her practice is finding the WHY. Her assessment and treatment resolves around solving WHY THINGS HURT, not just treating what hurts.

If you are ready to get started on solving the puzzle of why you are in pain, visit our website to book online.

Direct Billing Available.

WE’RE GROWING! 🌱

We have made the decision to move our clinic to larger space as of January 1st 2024.

Reasoning:
- We need two treatment rooms. Kirk and I would like to work at the same time to allow for more family time and better work-life balance.
- We would like a gym space to move our bodies, swing golf clubs and lift weights

For our current and future clients:
- We will still be located in Summerland, on the same street even!
- We will continue to work out of our current location until January 2024.
- Treatment availability will not be affected (we have a team handling the renos while we keep our current doors open).

We will be located at 13012 Victoria Rd North (between InHouse Performing Arts Studio and the Beanery 👌☕️)

Hi, we’re the Boechlers 👋🏼

I thought I’d reintroduce us now that we are both working at Physical Pursuit. My name is Courtney Boechler, but some of you might know me by my maiden name Parker. I was born and raised in Summerland.

I met my husband, Kirk, while we were both completing our masters of physiotherapy at the University of Queensland. After graduation, we worked in rural Australia before relocating back to Canada.

We both were mentored by Diane Lee in South Surrey, where we began treating in the integrated systems model.

During Covid, we decided to relocate our family back to Summerland for a better work life balance.

We have been serving the Summerland community since 2021 and have grown our family to four in the meantime.

We enjoy treating a variety of injuries and conditions including chronic pain, sports injuries, pelvic health, dizziness/vertigo and concussions. Check out our website for full bios to see if we are a good fit for you.
