Evidence-based, patient-centred, and results driven approach to musculoskeletal pain
(8)
Dr. Jorge Santizo, B.Kin (Hons), DC
Dr. Santizo has dedicated himself to the treatment of persons with neurological, skeletal and muscular impediments. His philosophy stems from the bio-psychosocial aspects of care, which takes an all-encompassing, person-specific approach to the management of every patient. As a diversified chiropractor, he applies only the best evidence-based techniques in p
ractice. This involves the proper assessment, diagnosis and treatment of specific conditions. Manual joint mobilization, manipulation, injury rehabilitation, and pain control therapies are just a few of the methods used by Dr. Santizo. As common practice would dictate, Traumatic or pathological conditions not within the scope of his care are managed by referral to the appropriate specialist. However, many conditions are treated safely and effectively with chiropractic care. Some examples range from heavy laborious injuries, vehicle injuries, to office and repetitive task injuries. In addition, Dr. Santizo has been providing exercise prescription and muscular adaptation programs since 2005. As an Honors Kinesiology graduate in 2006, he has been given the opportunity to work with the most challenging injury populations including persons with spinal cord, arthritic, and pre/post-surgical conditions. Dr. Santizo graduated from the chiropractic program of the highly selective Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) in 2010, and is an active member of the College of Chiropractors of Ontario (CCO), Canadian Chiropractic Association (CCA), Ontario Chiropractic Association (OCA), and the Canadian Chiropractic Protective Association (CCPA). The many years dedicated to self-development and results driven attitude has made Dr. Jorge Santizo a passionate and knowledgeable practitioner ready to care for your specific needs.
