Meet Our Team.

Dr. Mark Strudwick, chiropractor in Victoria and clinic director of Saanich Centre Chiropractic Plus, is a third-generation chiropractor, and the fourth chiropractor in his family. He attended Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose, California and graduated in 1997. Prior to his chiropractic education, he received a Bachelor of Sciences (B.Sc.) degree in Biology from the University of Victoria. In an effort to remain current while in practice, he has attended many seminars over the years in order to stay current with the latest research and treatment methods and scientifically-valid options of care.

Having completed training in Amsterdam and Oxford, he is one of only three chiropractors in Victoria to hold an ICSC (Internationally Certified Sports Chiropractor) through the International Federation of Sports Chiropractic (FICS), a body whose mandate is to train, and provide standards, for chiropractors working at top athletic events worldwide. Other certifications he holds:

-FAKTR (Functional & Kinetic Treatment and Rehab)

-Functional Movement System (Level 1)

-Selective Functional Movement Assessment (Levels 1 & 2)

-Titleist Performance Institute Levels 1 and Medical 2

  He has found in practice – that next to injury, faulty movement patterns are often the cause of pain and discomfort for many. Dr. Strudwick has certified in the above movement evaluations in order to be able to assess, treat and rehab injuries more effectively. He employs several techniques in his care of patients depending upon the individual’s need: from traditional chiropractic to soft tissue methods, kinesiology taping and laser therapy.

Educating the public about the benefits of chiropractic, as well as other health issues, is something that he feels is important. To achieve this goal, Dr. Strudwick has written numerous articles for Victoria’s “Moss Rock Review” and has been published at www.livestrong.com. In addition to private practice, Dr. Strudwick was the Orthopedic Pathology instructor for eight years at the Victoria campus of the West Coast College of Massage Therapy.
