Chiropractic

Chiropractic health care is one of the largest primary contact health care professions in Canada.  Many Canadians use the services of a Chiropractor each year for disorders related to the spine, pelvis, extremity joints and their effect on the nervous system.  Chiropractors are also trained to recommend therapeutic exercise, to utilize other non-invasive therapies and to provide nutritional, dietary and lifestyle counselling.  You do not need a referral to visit a Doctor of Chiropractic.

Your chiropractor uses safe, non-invasive techniques to restore motion to dysfunctional spinal and extremity joints.  Adjustments are the most common form of treatment in which a Chiropractor will introduce motion using quick manipulations into a hypomobile joint that may be causing the pain.  Your Chiropractor may also use a range of other treatments including soft tissue mobilization, stretching, exercise programs and biomechanical support to address the causes which have led to the symptoms of pain and muscle injury.  The primary goal of your Chiropractor is not only to provide pain relief but to address the underlying causes of the pain and injury.
