Why Chiropractic?
One of the largest primary care professions in Ontario, chiropractic is an evidence-based, non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the musculoskeletal system.
Chiropractors practice primarily using their hands, providing diagnosis, treatment and preventive care for disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system and joints.

Chiropractic can help with
Low Back Pain
Low back pain is the leading cause of disability worldwide, with 8 in 10 people reporting the problem at some point in their lives. Chiropractic care is part of the gold standard of care for acute and chronic low back pain.
Neck Pain
Clinical evidence demonstrates that adjustments, mobilizations and clinical massage are the most effective treatments for neck associated disorders- they have actually been deemed more effective than medication for neck pain in the short and long term.
Head Aches
Chiropractic care has been proven effective in treating migraines and cervicogenic headaches. Your chiropractor can determine what type of headache you have and get you the treatment you need.
Whiplash
Whiplash can result in tender muscles and limited neck movement. A chiropractor is trained to assess the severity of the injury and provide treatment as well as advice to aid in your recovery.
Arthritis
Arthritis affects 1 in 5 Canadians. With symptoms like inflammation and stiffness, this condition can limit your mobility, affecting day to day life. Manual therapy can help improve range of motion in the joints, reduce inflammation and help to manage pain.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy consists primarily of hands-on manipulation of the soft tissues of the body, specifically, the muscles, connective tissue, tendons, ligaments and joints for the purpose of optimizing health.
Massage therapy treatment has a therapeutic effect on the body and optimizes health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. Physical function can be developed, maintained and improved; and physical dysfunction and pain and the effects of stress can be relieved or prevented through the use of Massage Therapy.

Naturopathic Medicine
Naturopathic medicine is a distinct primary health care system that blends modern scientific knowledge with traditional and natural forms of medicine.
The naturopathic philosophy is to stimulate the healing power of the body and treat the underlying cause of disease. Symptoms of disease are seen as warning signals of improper functioning of the body, and unfavourable lifestyle habits. Naturopathic Medicine emphasizes disease as a process rather than as an entity.
In addition to diet and lifestyle changes, natural therapies including botanical medicine, clinical nutrition, hydrotherapy, homeopathy, naturopathic manipulation and traditional Chinese medicine/acupuncture, may also be used during treatments.
