What is WELLNESS?
Our Bridgeland massage therapy and wellness clinic offer various treatments with the intention of achieving your goals. YYC Sport and Spine believes that wellness goes beyond the body and mind.
We believe it's about a whole person, and that each of us has unique goals and challenges.
OUR TREATMENTS
MASSAGE THERAPY
Massage therapy is a treatment that uses physical manipulation of soft tissues to enhance health and wellness. It can relieve pain, reduce stress, and improve muscle flexibility.
COSMETIC INJECTIONS
Cosmetic injections like Botox and filler are a great way to enhance your face and improve your confidence. There are also many therapeutic benefits to Botox injections as well. We believe that wellness that any treatment that boosts self confidence and inner content is a step towards wellness.
ADJUSTMENTS
Chiropractic adjustments/treatment aim to restore joint movement, flexibility, and comfort. Realignment can be effective for areas of stiffness or tension.
DECOMPRESSION THERAPY
Decompression works by gently stretching open disc space, creating negative pressure in the disc.
This negative pressure acts to reduce bulging, irritation, and draw fluids (water, oxygen, and nutrients) into the disc - thereby, relieving pain and stimulating healing in the disc.
ACTIVE RELEASE THERAPY
Active Release Therapy Technique (ART) is a patented, state of the art soft tissues/movement-based technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves.
SHOCKWAVE THERAPY
Shockwave therapy accelerates the healing process in the body by stimulating metabolism and enhancing blood circulation to regenerate damaged tissue. Strong energy pulses are applied to the affected area to achieve this.
MEDX STRENGTHENING
MedX Lumbar extension machines have been clinically proven to be extremely effective in the treatment of chronic back pain. With the MedX machine, we can properly isolate and strengthen the lower muscles of the spine that is normally extremely difficult to develop on its own.
LOW-LEVEL LASER
Low level laser therapy (LLLT) utilizes a beam of electromagnetic waves of a single frequency and defined wavelength to promote tissue healing and pain relief in a broad spectrum of soft tissue injuries and diseases.
ORTHOTICS
Dealing with foot pain and aches? Custom orthotics may be the solution for you! These comfortable, customized inserts provide relief for the feet, knees, and back. They’re made to precisely fit your unique foot shape and pressure points.
By using custom orthotics, we re-align and support the body’s natural alignment. This can help relieve pain, improve gait, and prevent or lessen lower back injuries.

WHY WE VALUE CHIROPRACTIC CARE
Most chiropractors seek to reduce pain and improve the the functionality of patients as well as to educate them on how they can account for their own health via exercise, ergonomics, and other therapies to treat back pain. Chiropractors focus on the intimate relationship between the nervous system and spine, and hold true the following beliefs:
- Biomechanical and structural derangement of the spine can affect the nervous system, musculoskeletal system, mobility, and function.
- For many conditions, chiropractic treatment can restore the structural integrity of the spine, reduce pressure on the sensitive neurological tissue, and consequently improve the health of the individual.
- At YYC Sport & Spine, we focus not only on joint dysfunction, but use all the tools in our toolbox - including massage therapy, active release therapy, various electrical modalities, low level laser, shockwave therapy, decompression therapy, and strengthening to get you out of pain and remain pain-free.
- In combination with chiropractic treatment, massage therapy can relax tight muscles and sooth painful areas so that you can feel your best.
