Doctors of Chiropractic diagnose, treat and help prevent conditions and disorders related to the back, neck, pelvis, extremity joints and the effect they have on the nervous system. The main form of treatment chiropractors deliver is called an adjustment – a non-invasive procedure consisting of a precise directed movement to help relieve pain and discomfort, and restore range of motion.

Sometimes chiropractors will also use other therapies such as:
- Graston Technique
- Cupping
- Webster Technique
- Kinesiotaping.

A chiropractor does not prescribe drugs or perform surgery, but may make a referral to medical specialists for such treatment when appropriate. In addition to adjustments, chiropractors also counsel patients regarding nutrition, lifestyle and exercise.

Rigel’s passion has always been with sports. As a competitive provincial and university athlete, movement based therapies have been integral in sport performance and rehabilitation. In following this passion she graduated from Grant MacEwans 2200hr Massage Therapy program alongside working as a sport massage intern at the university’s athletic clinic.

Working in sport, Rigel has gained immense experience working with high performance hockey teams such as Alberta Hockey development programs, local rugby and athletics teams. It was here she realized that movement as a form of preventative measure could enhance athletic performance and aid in recovery. Therefore she continued her education and has added Stotts Pilates through Merithew, undergoing her education at Calgary Pilates. She now blends massage and practical rehabilitation exercises into her sessions.

Using her skills with fascial work, trigger point therapy, hydro therapy, KT Tape, paraffin wax, graston, and fire cupping, Rigel is versed in using a variety of tools to help her patients find movement safely. Her skills have transferred into also taking a special interest in finding movement post surgery, specifically women’s health (breast tissue rehabilitation post cancer/mastectomy/top surgery).

Dr. Eriksen has been practicing in Sherwood Park for more than a decade. She is best known for hormone balancing and treating auto-immune and mental health concerns.

She has passion for functional medicine, tracing the origins of disease and dysfunction through the interrelated systems of the body – tying cellular and immuno-chemistry, microbiome and genetics to hormonal health, detoxification, autoimmune disease, neurological health, mental health/mood and cognition, pain management and more! This evidence-based approach is founded learning from her undergraduate studies in microbiology and genetics (UofA)

A formative background in dance informs how Dr. Eriksen views movement and biomechanics. To extend her treatment reach and facilitate pain management and injury recovery (acute and chronic) Dr. Eriksen has taken additional training in applied kinesiology, qi gong and advanced K-taping (kinesiotape.) Her current fascination is fascia and she is engaged in integrating learning from Traditional Chinese Medicine and the Chakra system with western evidenced-based data. This influences her overall approach to chronic pain as she considers both physical stressors and psycho-spiritual stress, trauma and developmental contributors to restriction, imbalance and pain.

Dr. Eriksen’s case approach is practical and pragmatic. And as a mom of two gregarious kids, she strives to engage patients the way she engages life… with compassion, curiosity and humor.

Joanne Vachon, also goes by the name Jo LaFaeye. She started her healer journey as a massage therapist. Jo found that her massage skills were limited as she could only temporarily help her clients and sought out other modes of treatments. This led her to the manual osteopathic therapy course at the MOCC in Edmonton. This course has awakened her mind to the multitude of treatment techniques. She has found the techniques to be more effective and helpful for her and to her clients. She has fallen in love with this treatment modality and is excited to continue learning, growing and enhancing her skills as a practitioner. Her goal in treatment is to treat the whole body by supporting its innate ability to heal. Finding and addressing the cause of the problem rather than just treating symptoms.

Jo is very kind, compassionate and easy going. She enjoys the outdoors and animals of all shapes and sizes. Even though she doesn’t own an animal presently, she hopes to one day be on an acreage and enjoy the presence of multiple different animals.
