Co-founder, chiropractor, acupuncture provider and movement enthusiast.

Dr. Rick is an evidence-based chiropractor that is passionate about helping people move better, feel better and be the best version of themselves.

Whether you are in an acute episode of pain, struggling with a chronic condition or looking to optimize performance, Dr. Rick is confident that he can work with you to create a positive change in the way you move and live.

Rick was born and raised outside of Cornwall, Ontario. As an active child and young adult he reaped many benefits of sport and physical activity but also suffered the consequences of several sport-related injuries. This early exposure to injury and its impact on performance and wellbeing provided his drive to help others in similar situations. Following high school he pursued an Honours Bachelor of Physical and Health Education at Queen’s University, where he was also a member of the men’s varsity basketball team. After graduating from Queen’s he began his 4-year Doctor of Chiropractic program in Toronto. During his time in Toronto he continued to stay involved with the sports world as a baseline concussion-testing specialist at Holland Bloorview Kid’s Rehabilitation Hospital, medical staff for the York Lions and Scarborough Thunder OVFL football clubs and as a personal trainer at Shock Fitness in Muskoka, ON.

Currently, Rick enjoys staying active and playing a variety of sports. When he isn’t working, you can find him on the sideline helping local sports teams enjoying some down time with family or out on the trail hiking or running.
