Sports Chiropractor in North Vancouver
Move Better.
Get Stronger.
Play Longer.
Rehab-focused chiropractic and strength coaching for trail runners, skiers,
mountain bikers, and anyone who wants to age well and stay active for the long haul.
Does any of this sound familiar?
- Your knee is fine on the climb but angry on the way down. Every time.
- The trail run with friends went great. The 10 days of back pain after, not so much.
- You used to say yes to everything. Now you plan around what aches.
- You’ve rested, iced and scaled back. It helped for a few weeks, then the pain came back.
Maybe you’ve tried treatments that felt great on Monday but wore off by Thursday. Rest calms pain down, but it doesn’t build you back up. So you head back out with the same body that got hurt, one big day away from the next flare-up.
None of this means you’re broken.
Here’s Why It Keeps Happening
You've probably tried some version of the usual. Maybe a handful of treatments that felt great on Monday but wore off by Thursday.
Rest calms pain down, but it doesn't build you back up. So you go back to the same activities with the same body that got hurt in the first place.
Treatment that stops once the pain stops just puts you right back where you started: one big day away from the next flare-up.
Our Approach
Pain is often a mismatch between what you’re asking of your body and what it’s ready to handle right now.
So we do two things:
- The First Summit: We calm it down. Hands-on treatment and smart training changes settle the pain, so you can keep moving instead of stopping completely.
- The Second Summit: We build it back up. Progressive strength and conditioning raises your limit, so the next big day doesn’t cost you a week in bed.
Most treatment stops at the first summit. We keep going.
Work with me in the clinic, online, or both.

What to expect
Get Assessed
A 60-minute visit. We talk about what’s going on and what you want to get back to, then perform a thorough exam to find not just where it hurts, but why.
Get a Plan
You’ll leave knowing what’s going on, what we’ll do about it and what you can keep doing in the meantime.
Get Back Out There
We treat, progress and adjust as you improve. The goal is simple: get you back to the activities you love, and build the strength to keep doing them.

Dr. Andrew Caroon is extremely knowledgeable and took the time to explain everything to me in detail. I had been dealing with neck and shoulder pain for months! He developed a comprehensive long-term plan to help me recover and get back to full health. I highly recommend seeing him and following his treatment and rehabilitation plan.

June 23, 2026Dr. Caroon was awesome to work with. Extremely knowledgeable and great to work with. After many years with lower back pain he straighten me out and gave me exercises to do on my own time. So far so good! Thank you Dr. Caroon

I saw Andrew after a car accident and he’s been fantastic. He’s knowledgeable, friendly, and explains everything clearly. Direct billing to ICBC makes the whole process stress‑free. I always leave feeling better. Highly recommend.

April 2, 2026It’s been almost 3 years since I’ve been seeing Andrew. I am a person who does not particularly like being touched (I do not find massages relaxing!) but from the first visit, I’ve felt comfortable and safe in Andrew’s care. He’s helped me through some acute lower back pain episodes, and I was able to get an appointment quickly when I needed it the most. He takes the time to explain things in a way that makes sense to me, and I come out of every visit with confidence in a good plan, equipped with exercises to tackle whatever problem we are dealing with. Andrew helped connect me with other people that could help with my goals (and who have also become a big part of my life) – run clubs/clinics, a personal trainer, etc. and for that I’m so grateful! More recently he’s helping me prepare for a big road and trail running race by drawing up a strength and run training program, keeping me accountable and fostering good, life-long healthy habits. He’s made such a positive impact on my life – I don’t know what I would do without him!

I’ve been seeing Andrew for a few years now, usually when I’m in significant pain. Every single time, he’s been able to relieve the pain substantially and get me functioning again. He is incredibly thorough, takes the time to assess everything properly, and explains what’s going on. The exercises he gives are practical and really help prevent further injury. I’m so grateful to have found him and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and effective chiropractor.

February 28, 2026I connected with Dr. Andrew Caroon to create a workout program that would compliment the training I am doing for a few long trail races in 2026, leading up to the Golden Ultra in September. Now in the fourth month of Andrew’s program, I can say I am seeing results in my strength, endurance, and running abilities. Working with Andrew, he fine tunes the workouts to what I need and can handle, while also ensuring I am pushing myself to make progress and see results. I appreciate the check-ins each week, the monthly visits, and importantly, the daily accountability to keep myself honest and my goals on track. I highly recommend Andrew to anyone who wants to improve their fitness, learn what they are capable of, and engage their goals!!
