At Optimal Care Wellness, we take great pride in providing the finest chiropractic wellness care to our patients. Below is a sampling of the different chiropractic services we offer in our Winnipeg office.
Chiropractic Care
We provide spinal correction utilizing gentle chiropractic techniques. Never in the history of chiropractic have we been able to provide the level of help and expertise that now exists. These newer correction methods are even safer, more comfortable and more effective than ever before. As a Doctor of Chiropractic, Kaveh Elahiyoun has years of training and experience in spinal adjustment.
Corrective Exercises
We teach our patients special "blueprint" exercises to help strengthen and correct their own unique problem. These exercises can be performed in the comfort of your own home and can improve the effectiveness of your spinal correction. In addition to skeletal misalignment, muscles and connective tissues can be out of place or strained by improper alignment and use. Specific exercises and stretches can help your body stay in balance and in health.
Lifestyle Advice
We often find it helpful to "coach" our patients on certain activities they should avoid or do differently to avoid aggravating their particular health challenge. Our goal is to help every patient achieve a fulfilling and happy lifestyle full of the activities they enjoy most. We recognize that each patient is a whole person, and helping them reach true health and wellness is a collaborate effort between our professionals and our patients.

We provide specific recommendations on nutritional supplements and healthy food choices to enhance our patient´s return to optimal health. Do you know which supplements and vitamins are good for you?

Laser Therapy
Now offering the newest technology in laser therapy. Utilizing a non-thermal therapeutic laser, we provide treatment that can help decrease pain, reduce inflammation, and accelerate healing.
What does laser therapy do?
Laser therapy works by supplying the body with billions of photons of light at very specific wavelengths. The body absorbs this laser light on a cellular level and transforms it into chemical energy, which the body then naturally uses to repair its own tissue. The bio-stimulating effect of laser therapy causes decreases in both pain and inflammation, and an increase in tissue regeneration and accelerated healing.

Theralase lasers activate all 3 known cellular pathways:
1. Accelerate Healing --> 660 nm - Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) Pathway. This increases ATP production.
2. Reduce Inflammation --> 905 nm - Nitric Oxide Pathway. This increases nitric oxide levels by 700%.
3. Eliminate Pain --> 905 nm - Lipid Absorption Pathway. This re-balances the Na+ / K+ pump eliminating pain signals at the source.
