Dr Matthew Nelson

Dr. Nelson received his Bachelor of Human Kinetics in Exercise Science from UBC, while playing Varsity football for the Thunderbirds. He continued his education at New York Chiropractic College, where he graduated Magna Cum Laude. Upon returning home to Kitsilano in 2009 Dr. Nelson joined the practice of Dr. Charles Campbell, who was his chiropractor throughout high school and university. With over a decade of clinical experience Dr. Nelson leads a team of practitioners at Nelson Chiropractic & Massage. Chiropractic care involves treating a host of different musculoskeletal conditions through a variety of specialized techniques including extremity adjusting, spinal decompression, and use of The Activator Adjusting Instrument. Dr. Nelson's treatments focus on restoring quality and quantity of motion through the balancing, manipulation, and mobilization of joints via soft tissue therapies that focus on supporting the musculature. Each patient's treatment plan is also complemented by a personalized routine of supportive exercises, stretches, and nutritional counseling. When he's not busy putting his clients on the path to good health, Dr. Nelson keeps himself busy with football, skiing, hiking, weight training, and playing the guitar.
