Physiotherapy is anchored in movement sciences and aims to enhance or restore function of multiple body systems. The profession is committed to health, lifestyle and quality of life. Physiotherapists using judgement and techniques based on their extensive education, science and research—work with patients to help them move freely after injury, recover mobility after illness or surgery, manage chronic diseases like arthritis and diabetes and much more. A physiotherapist will work with you to put together a treatment plan for your condition or injury, so you can get back to enjoying life and the activities you love.

Physiotherapists work with clients of all ages and with a wide range of health conditions. Whether it’s pain management and rehabilitation from an acute injury like a sprained ankle, or management of chronic conditions such as diabetes or heart disease, a physiotherapist can help. Physiotherapy is not limited to rehabilitation of injury and the effects of disease or disability. A physiotherapist also provides education and treatments aimed at health promotion, disease and injury prevention.

A physiotherapist will assess you using detailed history-taking as well as specific physical tests and measures, such as flexibility or range of motion. She will then analyze the assessment findings and use clinical reasoning to establish a diagnosis. Together, you will explore your current abilities and functional needs so the physiotherapist can plan treatments that are consistent with your goals and general health status, and which incorporate approaches and techniques supported by the best evidence available.

Physiotherapy treatments can include the following:
- Personalized exercise programs designed to improve your strength, range of motion, and function
- Massage/myofascial techniques
- Joint mobilization and manipulation to reduce pain and stiffness
- Hot and cold application and Modalities (ultrasound, TENS/IFC) to relieve pain, reduce swelling, speed up the healing process, improve movement and function
- Management of incontinence including pelvic floor re-education
- Functional activity and tolerance testing and training
- Work and occupational re-training and return to work planning
- Prescription, application of assistive, adaptive, supportive and protective devices and equipment
- Environmental change, focusing on removing barriers to function
- Liaising and working with other healthcare providers to coordinate your care

Danika Schroeter MPT, IMS

UPDATE: Danika’s client list is full, and she is currently not taking new patients for the remainder of 2024. We have some wonderful and talented Physio team, please check for a different therapist.

Danika is devoted to providing quality physiotherapy services to each person during one to one appointments. Her approach honours each unique person with individualized treatments. She uses manual therapy, exercises & movement therapy, education, needling (IMS) and shockwave in her treatment approach. As a physiotherapist, it is Danika’s mission to help people feel empowered during recovery from injury or surgery.

Danika completed her Masters in Physiotherapy at UBC in 2012. Her main area of interest is in movement therapy and she applies this to all different populations. She is keen to work with people of all ages and conditions.

Danika has also worked at Ridge Meadows Hospital’s outpatient post surgical ward & orthopaedic clinic. Here she gained much valuable experience working with people post operatively, including joint replacement surgery, and hip fracture and fixation surgery. She loved this experience and welcomes people undergoing surgery who are looking for guidance and rehabilitation.

She LOVES learning (& educating!) and consistently seeks further education in many areas, including the following:

  • IMS/Functional Dry Needling Practitioner (Kinetacore - Levels 1 and 2)

  • Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (Courses: Level A, Exercise 1)

  • Postural Restoration Institute (Myokinematic Restoration course)

  • Lyn Watson Shoulder Course

  • Somatic Senses Shoulder Course

  • Manual Therapy (Orthopedic Level 1, and Level 2 Uppers and Lowers)

  • Bike Fit (can assist with Bike set up, but I don’t practice Bike Fits currently)

  • McGill Back Assessment

  • APTEI Thoracic and Lumbar Spine Courses

  • Mulligan technique

Danika grew up in North Vancouver, and made Maple Ridge her home in 2005. Prior to becoming a physiotherapist, Danika was involved in athletics. Throughout her childhood and adolescence she began to informally study health and human movement. She was a 4 time National Team Member for downhill mountain biking and continues to stay active recreationally. When she’s not in the clinic, Danika loves to spend time in the outdoors hiking, rock climbing, road biking, mountain biking, backcountry snowboarding and surfing.
