We are! We undergo 8 years of extensive training to achieve a Doctor of Chiropractic degree. This degree gives us the ability and legislation to diagnose conditions just like Medical Doctors, Dentists, and optometrists.

No referral is required to see a chiropractor. In Canada, chiropractors are recognized as primary healthcare practitioners, allowing patients to seek our services directly without the need for a referral.

Wearing loose-fitting clothing is recommended for effective soft tissue therapy. If your concern involves your arms or legs, kindly bring shorts and/or a t-shirt.

As per the cancellation policy, I require 48 hours notice to reschedule or cancel your appointment. You can call or email to reschedule/cancel.

Yes, I can direct bill for most insurance companies. Unfortunately, I have no way of determining the amount of coverage you have, the percentage of coverage or your deductible amount. You can determine this information by calling your insurance company directly.

An adjustment or Spinal Manipulation Therapy involves a controlled, high-velocity, low-force maneuver applied to specific joints. This targeted force aims to promote healthy motion within the joint, resulting in reduced pain, decreased restriction, improved range of motion, and increased joint function.

The audible "popping/cracking" noise during an adjustment is the release of gases from the joint. Synovial joints, encased in a fluid-containing capsule, experience a change in pressure when the adjustment moves the two joint bones. This alteration causes the release of gases—carbon dioxide, oxygen, and nitrogen—resulting in the characteristic cracking or popping sound.

Relief! I treat with a diversified technique, incorporating soft tissue therapy, cupping, SMT, etc. It's normal to feel some soreness the night or day after the session. The goal is to reduce muscle tension and enhance functional mobility in tight muscles and/or restricted joints. This soreness is similar to the post-exercise sensation after a good gym session!

Yes, chiropractic adjustments are safe. Adjustments are performed by highly trained professionals. They take a thorough history and physical to determine the appropriate treatment plan based on your presenting symptoms. This also means, if an adjustment is not right for you, they will inform you and offer an appropriate alternative.

Chiropractors address a diverse range of conditions! From low back pain, neck pain, and jaw pain to headaches, vertigo, rotator cuff injuries, tennis/golfer's elbow, ACL and meniscus injuries, plantar fasciitis, and ankle pain, the list goes on!

Not a chance! During your first appointment with a chiropractor, also known as an initial appointment. The chiropractor will take a thorough history of the area(s) of complaint. Following that, they will perform a very detailed physical examination. Based upon the findings from each, the chiropractor will create a specific treatment plan based on your body’s specific needs.

During a postpartum initial, a detailed history is gathered about your pregnancy, delivery, and postpartum symptoms/experience. From that, a physical examination is performed to see what compensation patterns are lingering since pregnancy, check core strength, glute function, breathing patterns and pelvic floor function. Hands on treatment is performed in the same appointment and is based upon your physical findings. After the hands-on treatment, we go through exercises specific to your presentation. After which, information and a summary of those exercises will be emailed to you.
