Basketball & Chiropractic Care

It is well documented that many professional athletes seek regular Chiropractic care to ensure they continue to perform at an elite level and reach their maximal athletic potential in their respective sport. Earlier this year, NBA Superstar, and Toronto Raptors forward, Serge Ibaka, presented to our clinic and saw Dr. Justin Fowler for some treatment.

Their findings across 60 patients with non-specific chronic low back pain showed the greatest improvement when they were adjusted regularly (12 times) in the first month and then following a maintenance schedule (2 times per month) for the following 9 [...]

Scoliosis: Does it cause pain

Scoliosis is a common condition of the spine and I see it frequently in my practice. It is characterized by a curvature in the spine, usually from side to side.

The amount of curvature can range from a barely noticable few degrees to nearly >70-80 degrees. Scoliosis is most often idiopathic (i.e. no-one knows what really causes it), but there are other types as well, that are [...]
