Chiropractor in Chilliwack BCThe tools I wish I'd had on my bad back days.

Mon 8:30am–5pm Tue 8:30am–6pm Wed–Fri 8:30am–5pm Sat 8–11am Sun closed

Text works best — I am a solo provider and I will get back to you as soon as I can. There is good news though: practicing out of my house and having some significant issues with boundaries means I can often see you the same day you text. Calling is hit or miss. I choose to let the voicemail take care of the phone calls when I'm with patients.

Body

  1. Adjusting

    Body

    The adjustment is only one small component to get you feeling better and back to feeling like your regular self! Will an adjustment fix everything?

  2. Soft tissue

    Body

    Treatment of the parts of our body that help us move. The squishy bits: muscles, tendons, ligaments and even nerves if the need arises. I have many different versions of soft tissue therapy that we can use based on the tissue to be treated and the tolerance and preferences of my patients.

  3. Taping

    Body

    Kinesiology tape is a unique stretchy tape that can help to increase the body's awareness of motion (called proprioception), and it lifts the skin away from damaged areas to allow the body more room to work. Check out pictures of what tape does when applied over a bruise. Wild stuff.

  4. Orthotics

    Body

    2.5 times your body weight goes through your heel every time you walk. What do my feet have to do with my health?

  5. Neurodynamics

    Body

    Nerves have to slide as you move. When one gets cranky it can send pain down a leg or an arm. Neurodynamics has helped us learn that nerves can be affected in a more mechanical way than we previously knew.

  6. Exercise

    Body

    …you as the patient have homework, usually in the form of at-home spinal/core strengthening exercises. Why Do 90% Of New Chiropractic Patients Get Adjusted?

Mind

  1. Understanding modern pain science

    Mind

    Understanding that pain is an experience that happens entirely in your brain can actually be helpful in dealing with it. I will do my best to help you get your head around pain. Rewiring Your Brain to Reset Chronic Pain

  2. Mindfulness

    Mind

    Mindfulness is actually a fairly easy principle to understand, but its effects are complex, and in practice, it is harder to do than it sounds. Mindfulness Changed My Life and It Can Change Yours Too

  3. Gratitude

    Mind

    Pain has an upside. It has allowed me to be much more grateful for all the days that my back doesn't hurt. Bad back days remind me how much my spine does for me on a regular basis, and I take it for granted. I do wish I could remember to be more grateful for a happy back without the reminder, but such is life. It's hard to be grateful sometimes.

  4. Stress management

    Mind

    Stress turns the volume up on pain. Stress and pain correlate far too closely to ignore the connection. Ever had a headache after someone yelled at you?

Lifestyle

  1. Sleep

    Lifestyle

    Sleep is one of those things that if you get enough of it, you don't think about it, but if you don’t get enough quality sleep, it can have a negative impact on your entire life. 4 Sleep Lessons to Help You Sleep Better

  2. Pacing

    Lifestyle

    A way to practice doing less when you finally have a good day. Gradually easing back into motion can help stop the boom and bust cycle, especially in chronic pain.

  3. Posture

    Lifestyle

    I might go against the grain here, but I don't believe there is one perfect posture. Learning to vary our posture is more beneficial than finding the one perfect posture to rule them all.

Dr. Devenney

Unhurried, one-on-one chiropractic care in Chilliwack, BC.

My name is Dr. Devenney and I practice out of my home-based chiropractic clinic at 5925 Garrison Blvd, Chilliwack BC. I am a solo provider so if you are texting or calling you are going to (eventually) be speaking to me.

First and foremost I spend a lot of time listening, to understand what's going on and whether you're in the right spot — meaning, can I actually help? Knowing when your specific problem is out of my lane is very important to me.

I have been in full-time practice in the Lower Mainland since graduating from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (Toronto) in 2009. About Dr. Devenney

How can I Help?

I work with you to give you the tools you need to be happy again. From headaches to custom orthotics, I help you head to toe.

    What can I expect on the first chiropractic visit?

    You'll get your intake forms by text before your visit. We will then proceed with a thorough assessment including taking a history and completing an examination. Once a diagnosis is made, we will provide you with treatment options, including an explanation of the benefits and risks of each. For most first chiropractic visits we will have time to provide treatment. Your first visit is a 45-minute assessment for $125 and follow-up treatments are $65. If you have extended-health coverage, we direct-bill to most of them, so depending on your plan you may pay little or nothing out of pocket. FAQ
