Chiropractic Care

Spine modelWhen your body moves well, you feel better—plain and simple. Chiropractic care focuses on restoring normal joint movement, especially in the spine, and supporting a healthier nervous system. When joints become stiff, irritated, or misaligned, they can disrupt how your body functions and how you feel day to day.

Through hands-on, personalized adjustments, we aim to reduce irritation, ease muscle tension, and improve mobility. Our approach isn’t just about symptom relief—it’s about helping you recover, stay active, and prevent issues from returning.

Techniques Tailored to You

Dr. Michael Salmon uses a variety of techniques to ensure your care is as effective and comfortable as possible. Every visit is adapted to your condition, preferences, and goals. We’ll always explain what we’re doing and why, so you feel informed and empowered throughout your care.

What Chiropractic Can Support

While chiropractic is best known for alleviating back pain, its benefits go far beyond. Many people seek our help for a wide range of issues, including:

  • Neck pain
  • Tension and cervicogenic headaches
  • Sciatica and nerve-related discomfort
  • Shoulder, hip, knee, or ankle pain
  • Arthritis-related stiffness and mobility loss
  • Vertigo and balance issues
  • Jaw, elbow, wrist, and hand concerns
  • Postural strain from desk work or device use
  • Recovery from car accidents (ICBC) or work injuries (WCB)
  • Wellness and prevention to maintain function and avoid flare-ups

To support your recovery, we often integrate techniques such as the Diversified Technique (manual adjustments), Drop Table Technique (comfortable and effective for pelvic or disc issues), Activator Methods® (a low-force, instrument-assisted approach), and soft tissue therapies like trigger point and myofascial release. These methods are chosen based on your needs and comfort level, and we’ll never adjust you in a way that feels uncomfortable.

Beyond Adjustments: Total Support

Our care doesn’t stop at adjustments. We take a team-based approach, working closely with our Registered Massage Therapists. We’ll also refer you to trusted providers in physiotherapy, acupuncture, naturopathy, podiatry, or your GP if your condition requires a broader plan.

To help you stay on track, we offer:

  • Personalized stretch and mobility guidance
  • Postural and ergonomic education
  • Custom orthotics
  • A monthly maintenance program with discounted rates for regular care
