Carson Turner is an evidence-based Chiropractor who prides himself on a patient-centred approach. His goal is to tailor every treatment specifically to you and your unique needs.

In practice, Carson employs a combination of Chiropractic manipulation, soft tissue techniques, and exercise rehabilitation to treat a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions.

Having grown up on the beautiful southern shores of Victoria BC, Carson attended the University of Victoria where he attained a B.Sc in Biology with a minor in Psychology. His passion for science, athletics, and the capacity of the human body drove Carson to shift his focus towards the field of healthcare.

In order to realize this transition, Carson moved “south of the border” to Portland, Oregon, where he enrolled in the Chiropractic program offered at the University of Western States. After completing the 3 year professional degree with distinction (Magna Cum Laude) – and developing a hankering for food trucks, donuts, and tattoos along the way – Carson returned to Vancouver Island in order to best serve his community and improve their quality of life through his acquired skill set.

Active listening and an empathetic approach to care allow Carson to connect with his patients, while his application of the most up-to-date scientific literature on musculoskeletal conditions, as well as his clinical experience, ensures an appropriate treatment plan to help you recover as quickly as possible.

When Carson is not in office, he can often be found at the local bouldering gym (most likely falling off of the wall), hiking a nearby trail with his partner Jasmine, or playing Dungeons & Dragons with his mates.

As a self-professed “lifelong nerd with a passion for helping others”, Carson looks forward to meeting you and helping you on your own journey towards living your life to the fullest.
