Vernon Chiropractors Provide Customized Patient-Centred Care

We believe meaningful change starts with understanding more about your health and daily habits, not just where you feel discomfort. With posture assessments, tailored chiropractic care, and home strategies, Lakeside Align Chiropractic focuses on supporting comfortable movement and postural awareness.

Discover What's Contributing to Your Discomfort at Lakeside Align Chiropractic

If you're tired of ongoing discomfort and short-term approaches, you're in the right place. If you're searching for a doctor who looks beyond where it hurts, we also look at why it may hurt. Led by Vernon chiropractors Dr Keegan Johnston and Dr. Michelle Poirier, our practice uses clinical assessment and, when clinically appropriate, may recommend tools such as MyoVision Neural Spine scans or imaging to support decision-making. Imaging is never routine and is only recommended when indicated.

At Lakeside Align Chiropractic, we use posture-focused chiropractic aimed at addressing contributing factors to help you get back to what you love. Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®) principles guide aspects of our approach; it is an evidence-informed system that emphasizes posture and spinal alignment when developing individualized care recommendations and home strategies. Outcomes vary from person to person. Patients who value natural health, movement, and education appreciate our style of care and communication.

Live in Alignment. Thrive by the Lake.

What to Expect at Your First Visits

Your initial assessment is an in‑depth process designed to identify the root cause of your concerns. It includes a thorough review of your medical history, a postural evaluation with bilateral weight scales, detailed static and motion palpation, and neurological and orthopedic testing. X‑rays may also be taken when clinically appropriate.

This comprehensive approach allows us to understand how your body is functioning and create a personalized care plan. Depending on your individual needs, home exercises and traction may be added once your plan is set to support your comfort and help maintain changes between appointments.

Our Skilled and Caring Providers

Raised in the small lakeside town of Bayfield, Dr. Keegan Johnston, chiropractor, grew up with a holistic approach to health. After earning a Bachelor of Science in Human Kinetics with a minor in nutrition at the University of Guelph, she completed a Doctor of Chiropractic degree—graduating valedictorian with clinical honours from Life Chiropractic College West. Dr. Keegan combines her interest in movement, posture, and education to support individuals and families.

Dr. Michelle Poirier, chiropractor, brings a people-first approach shaped by years of hands-on experience. She began her career as a Registered Dietitian, which deepened her understanding of how lifestyle and the nervous system affect wellbeing. She later completed her chiropractic education at the University of Western States, where she developed a commitment to addressing root causes, not just symptoms. Patients value her calm, welcoming style and clear, supportive guidance.

A Range of Techniques, Tailored to You

Care is customized to your tolerance and preferences. Diversified adjustments use precise hand contacts to restore joint motion. Activator Methods® and Impulse® adjusting deliver fast, light corrections without twisting, which many people find comfortable. Drop Table techniques use sections that gently lower to guide alignment with minimal force.

For pregnancy and upper-neck cases, we use Webster-inspired modifications and NUCCA-style upper-cervical work that prioritize comfort and light contacts.

Support for Families, Comfort, and Mobility

Whether you're seeking posture-focused chiropractic or support for new or longstanding discomfort, we provide pediatric, prenatal, and postpartum chiropractic care with comfort-first modifications, along with care for people with sports concerns, workplace strains, and ICBC-covered auto accidents. We do not claim to treat specific diseases or medical conditions. Our care focuses on supporting neurological and musculoskeletal function to help the body work more efficiently.

When clinically appropriate, we may recommend additional assessments such as scans or imaging to help inform your care. Imaging may be requested into the office to help better understand your condition. Selective spinal decompression is a non-surgical traction approach used to gently stretch and relax the spine; we start at low settings and adjust as your comfort and response allow. Individual experiences vary.
