Dr. Jorge Santizo B.Kin (Hons) , DC.

Chiropractor

Dr. Jorge Santizo provides an evidence-based treatment approach to neuromusculoskeletal conditions. He focuses on the bio-psychosocial aspects of care, which takes an all-encompassing, person-specific approach to the management of healthcare. This approach involves the proper treatment of the presenting complain as well as preventative measures to assist in minimizing reoccurrence. Manual Joint Mobilization, Spinal Manipulation, Pain Management and Rehabilitation are some of the therapies provided by Dr. Santizo.

When providing care, he is very adamant that “Knowing when not to treat is just as important as the treatment itself”.

Dr. Santizo graduated from 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).
