Vancouver West Chiropractor
Dr. Spence
After witnessing the results of many of his family members and friend’s response to Chiropractic care he decided to give it a try for himself. At the age of nineteen I attended for my first adjustment. I had suffered severe vascular type headaches for years and the conventional route was just not working. After a serious of treatments the response was remarkable – I knew then that Chiropractic had a lot to offer.
I attended Capilano College (now University) and SFU and then entered CMCC in Toronto. After four rigorous years of study and training in Toronto graduation day came in May of 1986.
After graduation I returned to my home town of Vancouver and have practiced ever since. My experience with patients has ranged from attending seniors residences, set calls for film/tv actors, Olympic athletes and in office have treated a wide range of patients.
Dr. Spence has continued with his academic studies by attending continuing education course on a regular basis exceeding the minimum required by his college. These courses range from orthotic therapy to evidence based orthopedic testing and treatment.
On the athletic side Dr. Spence is very active in many of the local running and triathlon races.
