Davy Lambrechts
Background
Davy brings a wealth of experience to Waves, having spent nearly 14 years working in the Ambulatory Rehabilitation department at UZ Leuven – Pellenberg campus. There, he specialized in complex spine-related conditions, focusing on the rehabilitation of athletes with neck or back issues and the treatment of chronic and complex pain complaints. His extensive clinical expertise is complemented by years of teaching at KU Leuven, where he trained physiotherapists in manual and exercise therapy. Davy has also supported athletes at national and international championships, particularly in athletics, further solidifying his reputation as a leading professional in his field.
Why He Does What He Does
Davy strongly believes that every patient is unique and requires a tailored approach to care. His process begins with a thorough understanding of the problem—not just the complaint, but the individual and their environment. This holistic perspective allows him to create personalized and effective rehabilitation strategies. Driven by his passion for personal growth and excellence in care, Davy also founded Gelukskine, a company dedicated to coaching healthcare professionals. Through this initiative, he empowers others to deliver sustainable, high-quality care while prioritizing their own well-being.
Fun Facts About Davy
Davy’s love for adventure and connection is evident in his personal life. Together with his family, he has twice lived abroad for three months, with Portugal and its vibrant capital, Lisbon, holding a special place in his heart. A Portuguese speaker himself, Davy enjoys exploring new places, savoring great food, and playing alongside his children with the same enthusiasm they bring to the playground. Outside of family adventures, he finds joy in CrossFit, spending time in nature, and reading—there’s always a good book in his backpack.
Davy’s depth of expertise, holistic approach, and passion for personal and professional growth make him an invaluable and inspiring member of the Waves team.
