As a dedicated Chiropractor at Vitality Chiropractic & Counselling, I am passionate about providing the best holistic care for individuals and families in Calgary. With a diverse background in kinesiology, personal training, registered massage therapy, and neurological rehabilitation, I have gained valuable knowledge and practical experience in various disciplines. This comprehensive understanding allows me to approach patient care from a holistic perspective, addressing not only the symptoms but also the underlying factors contributing to their health concerns.
My personal journey with chronic low back pain, stemming from my active involvement in basketball, led me to explore numerous treatment options. However, it was through the care of a holistic Chiropractor that I discovered a solution that provided long-lasting relief. Inspired by my own recovery, I decided to pursue a Doctoral of Chiropractic degree and further specialize in modalities that focus on soft tissue injuries, rehabilitation exercises, and neurofunctional acupuncture.
At Vitality Chiropractic & Counselling, I work closely with patients to develop individualized treatment plans that address their specific concerns and goals. One of the key modalities I employ is neurofunctional acupuncture, a technique that combines traditional acupuncture principles with a modern understanding of neurology and anatomy. This approach involves the precise placement of fine needles at strategic points along the body, targeting areas that have been identified as having neurological dysfunction or imbalances.
Acupuncture has a long history of use in Traditional Chinese Medicine and is known for its ability to stimulate the body’s natural healing response. By stimulating specific acupuncture points, we can influence the flow of energy (or qi) within the body, promoting balance and restoring optimal function. From a scientific perspective, acupuncture has been shown to have various physiological effects, such as releasing endorphins, modulating neurotransmitters, and reducing inflammation. These effects contribute to pain relief, improved circulation, and enhanced overall well-being. Many of these acupuncture points in Traditional Chinese Medicine coincide with neurofunctional acupuncture points which are used in neurofunctional acupuncture.
Neurofunctional acupuncture, in particular, focuses on the nervous system’s role in health and healing. By targeting specific nerve pathways and stimulating sensory receptors, we can influence the way the brain processes pain signals and restores normal function to the affected areas. This approach is particularly effective in addressing musculoskeletal conditions, chronic pain, sports injuries, and neurological disorders.
As a Chiropractor and neurofunctional acupuncturist, I integrate these modalities into comprehensive treatment plans that are tailored to each patient’s unique needs. In addition to acupuncture, I also utilize chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapies, rehabilitative exercises, and nutritional guidance to support the healing process. By addressing the root causes of pain and dysfunction, we can not only alleviate immediate symptoms but also promote long-term health and wellness.
