Chiropractic
As a primary caregiver, a chiropractor is trained to assess, diagnose, and treat your injury / dysfunction / condition through a combination of methods that may include: manual therapies, manipulation, deep muscle therapy, Active Release (myofascial release), acupuncture, shockwave therapy, therapeutic laser, spinal decompression, electro-modalities (such as IFC/EMS/muscle stim), ultrasound, and exercise prescription. Patient education is also important in allowing you to safely learn the tools to help yourself.
Chiropractors are trained to treat both acute and chronic conditions, as well as play a preventative role in your health, using evidence-based therapies.
The goal of chiropractic is to help you to restore the body to an optimal level of functioning and strength, thereby allowing you to safely and confidently enjoy an active lifestyle.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is a science-based health care profession that focuses on the body and movement. The physiotherapist requires extensive knowledge of how the body moves and how its systems work together. Physiotherapy is dedicated to promoting client health by helping them prevent injury and diseases, while promoting healthy, active living. Physiotherapy helps to manage pain from acute injuries and chronic conditions through rehabilitation with various exercise programs and treatment modalities. Another main component of physiotherapy is client education. Physiotherapists work to educate and support clients on how to maintain and improve their strength so they do not experience functional decline, or re-injuries.
Exercise Specialist / Fitness Coach
The role of the exercise specialist / fitness coach (or personal trainer) is to help design and implement individualized, scientifically sound exercise plans to allow the client to improve their mobility, strength, speed, balance, and overall fitness levels, to allow them to improve their quality of life.

Massage Therapy
Registered Massage Therapists are health care professionals committed to restoring and maintaining ideal health and pain-free function of the body. Massage Therapy is an effective approach to pain management and physical rehabilitation. RMTs are effective in treating and providing relief for a wide range of conditions such as stress and anxiety, chronic fatigue, muscle strains, headaches, sports injuries, tendonitis, arthritis, fibromyalgia, as well as many other common conditions related to soft tissue and joint dysfunction. Massage Therapy helps relax the nervous system to decrease muscle tension. Techniques used during the treatment place a stretch on soft tissues to re-lengthen shortened, tight areas, and allow for better blood flow and lymphatic drainage. The result is improved flexibility and decreased pain because your muscles will more easily contract and relax, and shorten and lengthen during activity. Through decreasing tension and decreasing muscle tightness, massage therapy enables your body to heal with improved circulation and to return to normal function.
Naturopathic medicine
Naturopathic medicine is where modern scientific knowledge and natural forms of medicine come together to target the direct cause of illness to help you feel your best. Naturopathic Medicine incorporates many different treatment modalities such as botanical medicine, lifestyle modification, nutraceutical supplementation, nutritional and dietary counselling, traditional Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Each individualized treatment plan draws from a variety of these modalities based on the patient’s needs. Naturopathic treatment plans are also designed to work collaboratively alongside any current medical prescriptions.
