At a high level, chiropractors are medical care providers who specialize in helping patients move well. This can mean a number of different things depending on what they determine a patient’s needs are including injury diagnosis and treatment, pain relief, structural correction and more. Traditional chiropractors typically only offer adjustments — a quick procedure where they apply a controlled, sudden force to a joint using their hands or a small instrument. Dynamic chiropractors offer a broader range of services based on what they determine your specific needs are. The Dynamic chiropractic approach can include:

• Chiropractic adjustments
• Injury diagnosis and specialist referral if necessary
• Treatment plans
• Preventative and rehabilitative exercises

Dynamic chiropractors believe in a 360-approach, giving patients the treatment, movements, and knowledge they need to keep doing the things they love. This means going beyond the traditional in-and-out, quick adjustment appointments. Dynamic chiropractors work with patients to create the conditions needed for them to find success without having to give up their active lifestyle. We do this by spending time with each patient to assess their biomechanics, explaining problem areas and their causes, and offering practical advice and movements.

Physiotherapists are medical care providers specializing in treatment and recovery related to injury. They enable patient treatment and recovery through a number of physical activities including exercise, physical manipulation, and occasionally massage. Dynamic physiotherapists work with patients one-on-one providing specified recommendations and treatments including:

• Individualized exercise and recovery plans
• Manual therapy and manipulations
• Direct communication and check-in’s

Dynamic physiotherapists work with patients to find the solutions to get them back to doing the activities they love, safely and pain-free. This means taking an individualized approach to injury treatment and recovery. Working with patients one-on-one to offer treatments that suit their pain levels and mobility, creating exercise plans specific to their recovery, and providing solutions to manage and improve discomfort.

Registered Massage Therapists (or RMT’s as they’re often referred to) are practitioners that provide soft tissue manipulation to treat pain and injury. The types of massage therapy range widely but are often an appointment that ranges anywhere from 30-90 minutes where in the patient will receive a massage to relieve tension, pain, and improve mobility. Dynamic RMT’s focus primarily on enabling active lifestyles as a whole and are more targeted in service offerings, which include:

• Specified issue treatment
• Deep tissue massage and active, soft tissue mobilization
• Working with other Dynamic practitioners for rehabilitation

Dynamic massage therapists offer active treatments to help active patients move well and feel prepared for any activity. This means prioritizing injury treatment and rehabilitation over relaxation. Dynamic massage therapy flips the conventional approach on its head to address the specific needs of active patients. Massage appointments are performed with patients in sports clothing rather than unclothed, therapists are goal focused rather than offering general treatments, and therapists work in conjunction with other dynamic practitioners to create accelerated recovery. We help patients make best use of their appointments to create real, lasting results.
