Located on the second floor, east side of the Waterfront Business Centre building (145 Chadwick Court), Root Cause Chiropractic is the solo practice of 41-year veteran practitioner Dr. Linda Drake (that’s me!). Wanting to simplify my life, I decided to close our long-term clinic, Foundation for Integrated Health, and open a solo practice to focus on what I love most – treating patients and seeing them improve and thrive!

Root Cause Chiropractic is a technique that I imagined 32+ years ago and have continued to add new dimensions to through the years. Focused primarily as neurologically based treatment, this very gentle and mostly non-manipulative technique works from the Central Nervous System out to the Musculoskeletal System, so your treatment protocols as supported by a properly functioning Central Nervous System. It is like “rebooting” your computer, which always runs smoother after the process. You will too!

Root Cause Chiropractic incorporates many different aspects of treatment:

• Postural-focused, neurologically derived. This works so well with Active Rehab training and Pilates/Yoga as we also focus on breathing and core bracing patterns.
• Trigenics Neuromuscular Rebalancing. This treatment supports proper joint movement and mobility, restores strength to weak muscles and gently removes chronic areas of tightness, spasm and trigger points without excessive pain.
• Myofascial Percussor Release. This is the release of chronically tight fascia and muscles due to chronic, low grade nerve compression.
• Myofascial Percussor Release with Laser. This provides support for your SCAR tissue, both external and internal!
• Whole body approach. This means the solution to your pain may not be where the pain is. In other words, a pain centered approach often does not solve the pain!
• Cranial specific treatments. For chronic upper neck, skull, facial and temporomandibular pain/problems – which can also relate to lower back and pelvic issues, breathing issues
• Extensive experience. 15+ years of treating Concussions/mTBI, 10+ years certified Complete Concussion Management Certified Practitioner with proprietary cold laser protocols for treatment. Work with other health professions to create a team approach as needed.
