Yes. Modern chiropractic care — like that offered by Dr. Jim Gilliard — is grounded in peer-reviewed research and clinical reasoning. Dr. Gilliard uses a multimodal, evidence-informed approach that integrates chiropractic adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitative exercise based on your unique needs.
Dr. Gilliard treats a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions, a few examples include back pain, neck pain, shoulder injuries, joint dysfunction, sciatica, and sports-related injuries.
Yes, when performed by a qualified practitioner like Dr. Gilliard. All techniques are selected based on your specific condition, goals, and comfort level. Treatments are conservative and non-invasive.
Multimodal care means using a combination of therapies — such as chiropractic adjustments, acupuncture, laser, soft tissue therapy, and exercise — to address the root cause of pain and support long-term recovery. It’s more comprehensive than one-size-fits-all care.
Our style of acupuncture is a modern, evidence-based approach rooted in neurophysiology. Instead of focusing on traditional meridians, we insert fine needles into specific anatomical points to directly modulate your nervous system. This is highly effective for reducing pain, releasing tight muscles, and improving nerve function.
It depends on your condition, goals, and how your body responds to care. Some patients feel better in 1–3 visits, while others benefit from a phased plan that includes rehab and prevention strategies. Everybody is unique.
Absolutely not! Our goal is the opposite. We focus on efficient and effective care to get you out of pain and back to your life as quickly as possible. We then empower you with the knowledge and corrective exercises needed to prevent re-injury and manage your health long-term, reducing your need for passive care.
Yes, many extended health insurance plans in Canada cover chiropractic treatments. However, coverage varies, so it’s best to check with your insurance provider. OHIP does not cover chiropractic treatments.
During your first visit, we’ll perform a full assessment, including a review of current and past health history, a physical examination of relevant body structures, an overview of findings, and diagnosis. From there, Dr. Gilliard creates a tailored care plan — often starting with hands-on therapy and progressing to rehab exercises.
Initial consultations can last 45–75 minutes. Follow-up sessions are typically 20–40 minutes, depending on the treatment required.
