Meet Dr. Haitsma

"Chiropractic is part of the healthy lifestyle puzzle; we don’t have all the answers but have a very important role to play." When he was a university student, Dr. Haitsma was involved in a car accident that resulted in him having horrible headaches. “They hurt so much. I was told by a doctor that I had a concussion but was just told to put ice on my head and take pills.”

Dr. Ha

itsma followed the doctor’s orders but still had raging headaches. Then one night, he met a chiropractor at his neighbor’s barbecue. “I told him my story and he said, ‘why don’t you come see me; maybe I can help you.'”

Though Dr. Haitsma didn’t know about chiropractic, he did know that what he was doing wasn’t helping that much. “The doctor that helped me was a classic chiropractor. He told me what he was doing and why and it made a lot of sense to me. That experience changed my life and I decided to become a chiropractor.”

When he’s not at the practice, Dr. Haitsma loves gardening and tending his flowers. An avid hiker and fly fisherman, he and his wife Veronica enjoy exploring the trails and rivers of Southwest Alberta. Their daughter and son-in-law live in New York City and they have another son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren that live nearby so they enjoy getting together with them often.

Athletes tend to think of chiropractic care as something to turn to after an injury, but many professional sports teams have chiropractors on staff for a different reason. Regular adjustments help maintain the joint mobility and nervous system function that performance depends on, so the body is prepared before problems develop. Ask us about how regular care fits into your training!

One of the most effective things you can do for spinal health costs nothing: check your sleep position. Sleeping on your stomach places the neck in sustained rotation and flattens the natural curve of the lower back, which builds up real strain over time. Sleeping on your side or back, with a pillow that keeps your head level with your spine, makes a measurable difference.

Soft tissue work is often part of a chiropractic visit, and it serves a specific purpose. When muscles become tight or restricted, they can pull joints out of their normal movement patterns and reduce how well an adjustment holds over time.

Research has shown a link between spinal health and how the body manages stress. When joints are restricted and the nervous system is under mechanical strain, it can amplify the body's overall stress response in ways that extend well beyond muscle tension. Taking care of your spine is, in a practical sense, taking care of your whole system.

People come in for all kinds of reasons, from managing back pain to improving their posture or simply staying on top of their health. We are curious: what first brought you to chiropractic care? Share your answer in the comments.

The spine does more than hold you upright. Every nerve signal that travels between your brain and your body passes through it, which means that even small disruptions in spinal movement can have effects well beyond your back. That is why chiropractic care focuses on the whole system, not just the area that hurts.

The human body was not designed to hold one position for hours at a time, but that is exactly what most desk jobs require. Over time, the muscles that are supposed to support your spine start to disengage, and other structures pick up the slack in ways that lead to pain. Let's talk about what we can do to help.

A rocket launch looks dramatic from the outside, but what makes it work is the precision behind it. Chiropractic care is similar. Each adjustment is a carefully targeted input to a specific joint, designed to restore movement and reduce the nervous system interference that builds up when things are not moving as they should.

If our care has made a difference in your life, sharing your experience online helps someone else take that first step toward feeling better.

Most people think of spinal health in terms of pain, but your spine is the main highway for your nervous system, carrying signals between your brain and virtually every organ and system in your body. When vertebrae are not moving properly, that communication can be disrupted in ways that have nothing to do with back pain. Ask us how spinal health might be connected to things you would not expect.

Chiropractic care works a lot like exercise in one important way: the results come from consistency over time, not from a single session. Your body learns and adapts with each visit, and that progress builds on itself. We are glad you keep showing up.
