North vancouver chiropractor

Dr. Amy Wiggins

North Vancouver chiropractor Dr. Amy Wiggins grew up on the North Shore playing sports and enjoying the outdoors. She has played competitive soccer most of her life and credits regular sports chiropractic care to keeping her injury and pain-free through various stages of life including high school and college soccer. It also played a critical role in helping her return to play high level premiere soccer at 6 months post-partum.

She completed a degree in exercise science at UBC and continued her studies at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College where she graduated with clinical honors distinction. Since graduating she has completed various chiropractic and rehab courses including: Active release techniques (ART), Functional Release (FR), Functional Range Conditioning (FRC) and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) through the Prague School of Rehabilitation. She completed her 200 hour Hatha Yoga Teacher training in 2016 and has volunteered as a yoga instructor for COAST mental health for 2 years. She is experienced in treating people of all ages and activity levels by combining traditional chiropractic with other gentle hands-on approaches and laser therapy.

In the last 3 years she has become a mother to two boys and understands more than ever the unique experience of pregnancy and post-partum. She furthered her studies in this area by completing the GrowCo rehabilitation course which aims to help mothers heal and regain strength after birth. Whether you are 6 weeks or 6 years post-partum it’s never too late to address pelvic floor dysfunction, leaking, abdominal weakness/separation and pain-related to pregnancy and birth.

In her spare time she enjoys playing soccer, doing hot yoga and spending time with her family.
