Chiropractic Care Ottawa:
At LiveWell we believe chiropractic care in Ottawa is for everyone. Many people traditionally associate chiropractic care with the relief of back and neck pain. Although extremely beneficial for those conditions, at LiveWell we also promote and deliver wellness care. We know that true health involves much more than just the absence of pain and symptoms. It involves optimal functioning of our bodies on all levels, physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. Chiropractic wellness care helps the body to maintain nervous system integrity so we can enjoy our lives to the fullest. How? By removing subluxations.
Massage Therapy Ottawa:
Massage therapy has been used for centuries in both Western and Eastern cultures. Massage therapy uses basic mechanical hand movements to help relieve pain, reduce stress and promote healing by improving circulation, deepening relaxation and providing an increased sense of physical awareness and emotional well being. It is effective in controlling chronic or acute pain, reducing stress and creating a sense of relaxation and well being. Therapeutic massage is used to help obtain relief from many specific problems, including low back pain, migraine and muscle tension headaches, whiplash, and neck and shoulder tension to name a few.

Naturopathy Ottawa:
Naturopathic medicine is a primary health care system that uses natural therapies to support and stimulate the body’s innate ability to heal. Naturopathic medicine addresses the physical, mental, emotional, environmental and spiritual aspects of health to identify and treat the root cause of disease.
Naturopathic doctors are primary care providers with a minimum of 7 years of post-secondary training in medical and clinical sciences. They integrate centuries-old knowledge of natural therapies with current advances in the understanding of health and human systems. Naturopathic doctors are trained in a wide array of therapies which include botanical medicine, homeopathy, physical medicine, acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine, nutrition, and lifestyle counseling.

Custom Orthotics Ottawa
Orthotics are custom made inserts that comfortably fit into shoes or sandals. They are designed to support and improve the functioning of feet, and help re-establish normal mechanics for the feet, ankles, knees, hips and spine. Orthotics are prescribed to patients suffering from chronic foot, lower limb and low back problems or to athletes to help maximize performance during sport. They are often beneficial in the prevention of osteoarthritis of the knees and hips.
The doctors at LiveWell have been developing orthotics in the community for a combined 20 years. The doctors have specialized training in the biomechanics of the foot and take special care in diagnosing any problems you may have. Our orthotics examination involves an analysis of your gait, thorough evaluation of the biomechanics of the lower extremities and finally traditional casting. This procedure allows us to fashion a truly “custom orthotic” to address each patients specific foot problems and/or needs. We also offer a large variety of brand name shoes (including New Balance, Rockport, Naot) with an incorporated orthotic.
