I always appreciate the kind words from my patients! 🌟

“This may be the first time in my adult life that a health practitioner took such a thorough health history and truly listened and heard me. I felt heard, understood and validated for aches and ailments I’ve lived with for years.
And to top it all off she gave me an excellent adjustment and a home exercise program to finally take charge of my health!
Highly recommend Dr. Cooksley!”

I’m not your average chiropractor 👩🏻‍⚕️

I will make you feel better.
But I will also look at how you’re moving and give you the tools you need to keep feeling better. (that’s the only way to truly “fix” you)

FAQ FRIDAY! 🤔

Q: Once I see a chiropractor, do I have to keep going?
A: Like most things, it depends!
This one’s a hot topic in my profession. So here’s my take.

👉 If you are coming to see me to deal with an injury, especially if it is stopping you from doing what you love or from being able to carry out daily tasks, then yup, you’ll probably need more than one visit.

👉 If your goal is to prevent injury and continue doing what you love until age 102 then yes, you’ll also probably need more than one visit.

The difference is the frequency of visits- this changes depending on how acute your pain is, how motivated you are to do your home care, when your next big event is, or the ability you perceive you have over managing your own pain.

💪 If you just fell on your shoulder yesterday and now it can’t move, that might mean we’ll need a few visits over a few weeks to get you moving and feeling strong again.
🛏️ If you feel a bit of stiffness in your lower back after activity or when you get out of bed, then one visit with treatment and a some advice on what to do at home or after activity should do the trick.

If you’re someone that needs to be held accountable then you might find it beneficial to come more often. If you’re good at doing homework, you’ll find you won’t need to see me much.
Some people like the semi-regular check-ins because it feels good. Some people only come when things start to hurt. Both are fine, neither are wrong.

🤔 But ask yourself this- should you wait for the car to completely die before getting the oil changed? Do you wait for your teeth to rot before going to the dentist? There’s a reason maintenance check ups exist, Chiro is no different.

About Dr. Cooksley

Dr. Taylor Cooksley, originally from Sherwood Park, is excited to be back in her home town after pursuing post-secondary education in both Calgary and Portland, Oregon. She grew up spending most of her time acting and dancing, and is formally trained in many dance genres. It was through her active lifestyle that she grew interested in human movement and mechanics. She went on to pursue a Bachelor of Kinesiology degree at The University of Calgary, then moved to Portland, Oregon where she completed both Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Chiropractic degrees at The University of Western States. While in chiropractic school, Dr. Cooksley was involved in many clubs, and even became one of the heads of the MPI club, running seminars and mentoring her peers. She also stayed close to her roots and took many seminars on sports rehabilitation to further understand how to use movement to diagnose and treat many conditions. She is also formally trained in Active Release Technique (ART), Smart Tools (a soft tissue technique similar to Graston), Clincial Neurodynamics, and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) Exercise techniques.

Dr. Cooksley loves working with all patients, from new and expecting mothers and their children to elite athletes to the aging population. She understands that each patient is unique and deserves a unique and individualized treatment plan. No matter who you are, Dr. Cooksley wants to keep you moving so you can keep doing what you love.
