Chiropractic Care and Spinal Adjustments, (also known Spinal Manipulative Therapy), were first pioneered over a hundred years ago as a method of manually improving how the spine worked. The theory was that misaligned vertebrae placed pressure on spinal nerves, thereby affecting the many different functions in the body controlled by those nerves. By correcting the spinal misalignment, the nervous system could work properly again. Chiropractors also placed a strong emphasis on the philosophy of Prevention - if the body was working optimally, then we wouldn't get sick.

Over time Chiropractors became known as spinal experts and what we often describe as a cross between a Mechanic and a Neurologist. Chiropractors manipulate not just the spine, but other joints such as the shoulder, hip or knee, using a variety of adjusting techniques, soft tissue treatments. They also prescribe condition specific exercises, to assist in recovery and help prevent injury recurrence. Chiropractic has evolved to include 5 different Specialties in Canada that reflects the diversity of skills and training with Colleges in the fields of Rehabilitation, Orthopedics, Clinical Research, Radiology and Sports Sciences.

Because of the range of techniques offered at the QCSI, we are able to treat a variety of ages and conditions - from Sports Injuries and TMJ issues, to MVA's, Repetitive Strain Injuries and Ergonomic related problems. This sometimes includes ergonomic assessments in the workplace or home to ensure correct body posture and mechanics. Please contact us if you have any questions about what we do and the conditions we treat!

Acupuncture is an ancient form of Chinese medicine involving the insertion of very fine needles into the skin at specific points on the body to achieve a therapeutic effect. No drug is injected. The needles alone create the beneficial effects of Acupuncture.

Acupuncture is used to encourage natural healing, improve mood and energy, reduce or relieve pain and improve function of affected areas of the body. It is safe and effective and is often successfully used as an alternative to medications or even surgery. Relief is often obtained with acupuncture when traditional medical therapy has failed. Because of shape and the design of the needles, very little discomfort is usually reported.

Dr Bardwell has been certified in Medical Acupuncture by the AFCI and CAMA, through courses at the University of Toronto and McMaster University respectfully, and has used Acupuncture successfully to treat a variety of conditions, including Sciatica, Lower back pain, Headaches, Rotator Cuff Tendinopathy, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and Sports Injuries to name a few.
