Chiropractic focuses on disorders of or injuries to the musculoskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of these disorders on general health. Chiropractic care is used most often to treat neuromusculoskeletal complaints, including but not limited to back pain, neck pain, pain in the arms, legs, hands and feet, and headaches. Doctors of Chiropractic practice a drug-free, hands-on approach to health care that includes patient examination, diagnosis and treatment. Chiropractors have broad diagnostic skills and are also trained to recommend therapeutic and rehabilitative exercises. The most common therapeutic procedure performed by doctors of chiropractic is known as “spinal manipulation,” also called “chiropractic adjustment.” The purpose of manipulation is to restore joint mobility by manually applying a controlled force into joints that have become hypomobile—or restricted in their movement—as a result of a tissue injury.

Physiotherapy, also called Physical Therapy, is the rehabilitative process of restoring physical function and mobility and promoting physical activity. As a primary caregiver, a physiotherapist can assess, diagnose, and treat your injury through a combination of methods that may include: manual therapy, manipulation, acupuncture, modalities such as ultrasound, shockwave and heat, and/or exercise prescription. Whether you’ve had a car accident, sports injury, physical trauma, or repetitive strains our physio team is here to provide you with the treatment you need to improve your well-being.

Therapeutic massage is customized to your preferences and needs. Our RMTs are skilled at working at multiple treatment depths and will use a variety of pressures and techniques for your benefit. RMTs may focus on areas of pain or tension. Treatment time includes assessment and self-care recommendations, as needed. Massage Therapy is an effective approach to pain management and rehabilitation. RMTs can effectively treat and provide relief for a wide range of conditions such as headaches, tendonitis, arthritis, fibromyalgia, sports injuries, as well as many other common conditions related to soft tissue and joint dysfunction. Massage also reduces stress and anxiety and improves sleep.

Manual Osteopathy emphasizes the treatment of pain through manipulation of muscle tissue, joints and vital organs. Osteopathy can be very effective in treating various joint and muscle pains, vascular and nerve disorders, organ dysfunctions and body imbalances. It is also helpful in the recovery from surgery or motor vehicle accidents, or for treating chronic conditions. These treatments can speed up your recovery and help your return to health. The three main components of Manual Osteopathy include: Visceral (organs and their fascial connections as well as the neurovascular support to the organs), Osteoarticulations (bones and joints, nerves, muscle and connective tissues), and Craniosacral (working with the cranium, spine and sacrum and the flow of cerebral spinal fluid).

Photobiomodulation (PBM) Therapy, also known as Red-light Therapy, Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or Cold Laser, is the application of red or near infrared light to improve wound and soft tissue healing, reduce inflammation and give relief for both acute and chronic pain. Unlike drugs or surgery, photobiomodulation actually promotes tissue regeneration and reduces inflammation. It is also painless, non-toxic, non-invasive and has no side-effects.

The NovoTHOR is a full-body medical light pod. This therapy is Red Light Therapy and is also called Laser Therapy, Photobiomodulation, Low Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) or Cold Laser. It is the application of red or near infrared light to improve soft tissue healing, reduce inflammation and give relief for both acute and chronic pain. This treatment also stimulates collagen production to improve skin and tissue quality. It is painless, non-toxic and non-invasive.
