Dr. Robin Van Der Mark Bio

I opened Elgin Chiropractic office in 1996. At that time chiropractic care was the only service offered at the clinic. In 2000, I was joined by Dr. Slater, and expanded the office to a multi-disciplinary health care clinic including massage therapy, acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I completed a degree in Biochemistry at SFU in 1991 and then entered the Canadian Chiropractic Memorial College in Toronto. I graduated Magna Cum Laude with clinical honours in 1995 and was in the top 8% of all graduates across Canada. I have maintained a busy practice over 2 decades and I continue to welcome new patients. I have seen over 10,000 patients over the last 2 decades including recreational athletes, pro athletes (NHL, CFL), professional performers (Cirque de Soleil), homemakers, labourers, business people and students. I’ve treated a wide range of health concerns including shoulder injuries, knee and hip arthritis, plantar fasciitis, whiplash injuries, back pain and headaches. Each patient treatment is individualized to my patient’s needs. As well as spinal and joint manipulation, I utilize laser therapy, spinal traction decompression therapy, electrotherapy, ultrasound therapy and soft tissue techniques to help my patients return to their normal daily work, home and sports activities. In 1995 I completed the Canadian Pedorthic program. As a pedorthist and chiropractor, I am one of very few healthcare professionals who are trained in the assessment of lower limb anatomy and biomechanics and treatment of related injuries. I have performed computerized walking (i.e. gait) analyses and physical foot exams on thousands of patients. My chiropractic expertise, along with pedorthic training, allows me to provide my patients with the most up to date custom orthotic devices. I was raised in, and still live in, Port Coquitlam with my wife, Fiona, and our 4 children. I enjoy outdoor activities such as biking, hiking, snowshoeing, and pickle ball. I am also involved in activities in our community including being on my kids school education committees. After 5 decades of life and 4 car accidents I recognize how much chiropractic care has helped me to live a healthy life and appreciate my normal activities. I am looking forward to helping you get back to enjoying your life and your favourite activities as well.

It's great that you're considering chiropractic care for various conditions. Chiropractors can indeed provide treatments to address neuromusculoskeletal issues, including those related to scoliosis, hip and pelvis pain, and shoulder arthritis. However, it's important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional, such as a local chiropractor, to determine the most appropriate treatment approach for your specific situation.

For scoliosis, chiropractic care may involve spinal adjustments and exercises aimed at improving posture and reducing spinal curvature. A chiropractor can assess the severity of scoliosis and provide appropriate treatment recommendations.

In the case of hip and pelvis pain, chiropractors can assess the underlying cause of the pain and provide treatments such as spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, exercises, and other modalities to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.

Regarding shoulder arthritis, chiropractors may offer non-surgical treatment options to help manage the condition. These options can include rest, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), chiropractic adjustments to improve range of motion, corticosteroid injections, and heat/cold therapy. However, the specific treatment plan would depend on the individual's condition and should be discussed with a chiropractor.

Remember, while chiropractic care can be beneficial for many individuals, it's important to have a thorough evaluation by a qualified healthcare professional to ensure that the treatments are appropriate for your specific needs. Consulting with a local chiropractor would allow you to discuss your condition in detail and determine the best course of action.
