Born and raised in the Okanagan, Anna graduated from Okanagan Valley College of Massage Therapy July 2021 a short distance from home to pursue her career.

During her time at Okanagan College she played 2 years of post secondary basketball in which an injury cut her season short. Over the years of playing basketball Anna recognized how important it was to deal with an injury instead of continuously playing through them and making them worse which sparked her interest in massage therapy.

Recently, Anna has pursued a career in bodybuilding and competed at a national level in 2024.

Being an athlete has been a major part of her life, whether she be on a court playing basketball or in the gym lifting weights, driving her passion to work with the athletic population and help people get back to the things that they love to do.

Dr. Amit Chahal was raised on an Orchard in Oliver, BC. He completed his Bachelor of Science in microbiology at the University of British Columbia in Kelowna. He then started his Doctor of Chiropractic at the University of Western States in 2018 in conjunction with his Bachelors in Human Biology where he graduated summa cum laude.

Through his years at UWS, he has gained extensive clinical experience backed by the most recent evidence-informed research, which confidently allows him to treat any patient who walks through the door. He is a firm believer in having many tools in his tool bag meaning more than just the “pop” and “crack”. Taking a detailed history and orthopedic exams helps determine what treatment modalities will be used to provide the most evidence-based patient-centered care. This is what truly sets him apart from “other chiropractors”.

His goal is to improve the athletic, pediatric, geriatric, and pre/post-natal patient base through high-quality musculoskeletal care. His sport of choice is basketball and has been playing since he was 5. If he is not busy treating patients you can find Amit and his wife at the dog park with their Labradoodle, Leo. He enjoys the outdoors, traveling, golfing, and spending time with friends and family no matter the occasion.

Dr. Courtney Nickel was born and raised in Ontario before she decided the Okanagan lifestyle was the best lifestyle and made the leap of moving here. After visiting British Columbia once, Dr. Courtney fell in love with everything about it - the hiking, the mountains, the people, the activities, oh and did she mention the mountains?!

Chiropractic care has been apart of Dr. Courtney’s life since she was just a baby and has benefited from it her entire life, especially during her time as an athlete on her rowing team in university. Being raised in a small town, Courtney’s childhood chiropractor became her go-to primary medical professional and this is where she learned how much chiropractors know beyond just muscle and joint pain.

On top of her Doctor of Chiropractic degree, Courtney also completed her Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology in 2014 and her Masters of Science in Rehabilitation Science in 2019. She then worked for a year as a Registered Kinesiologist where she developed a strong interest in the importance of incorporating active care into a patient’s rehabilitation plan.

As a recent graduate, Dr. Courtney is eager to start using her skills and knowledge to serve the people of the Okanagan! Through all of her schooling and work experience, Courtney has learned the importance of listening to her patients and tailoring care that best suits them. She will take you through an efficient yet thorough history and physical examination in order to determine the root cause of your pain. After that, she will work with you to determine the best approach to care based on your goals and lifestyle.

With the perfect combination of hands-on and active care, Courtney is here to set you up for success in treating and keeping your aches and pains away and to help you live a life with no limitations! Courtney will provide you with the tools to manage your pain outside of treatment through patient-specific exercises and leave you feeling stronger than ever before.

Outside of the clinic, you will often find Courtney with her dog, Stella. Some of her passions include weightlifting, rock climbing, water sports, cooking, and doing puzzles or playing on her Nintendo Switch in her downtime.

As an experienced Massage Therapist and ACE certified personal trainer, I draw upon my background in the science of recovery to get you moving again!

After my own injuries and setbacks from overworking my body, I discovered the power of full body recovery. Finding methods and techniques to properly rest and recover led me to better understand its roll in performing under pressure, and the ability to be more present in our day to day lives.

Massage Therapy can be a great method to compliment full body recovery. Through the use of soft tissue techniques such as Deep tissue Massage and Myofascial Release, I aim to improve your range of motion and reduce chronic aches and inflammation. Working with you one on one, we can find simple ways to move better and live a full life!
