Chiropractic Treatment
Chiropractic treatment is a non-invasive healthcare approach that focuses on the musculoskeletal system, particularly the spine. Our licensed chiropractors use manual adjustments and other techniques to relieve pain, improve spinal alignment, and support overall well-being. Chiropractic care is often used to address issues such as back pain, neck pain, and headaches. It aims to optimize the body’s natural healing mechanisms and enhance the function of the nervous system. Whether you’re seeking relief from specific pain or discomfort or striving to improve your overall health, our chiropractic services offer personalized care to promote wellness and alleviate musculoskeletal issues.
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy is a comprehensive healthcare discipline dedicated to enhancing physical function, mobility, and overall well-being. Our experienced physiotherapists provide a range of evidence-based techniques to address various conditions. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or striving to improve physical performance, our personalized treatment plans guide you toward regaining strength, flexibility, and function. Through hands-on therapies, targeted exercises, and patient education, we empower you to lead a healthier, more active life. Our goal is to provide tailored guidance, support, and effective treatments that improve your quality of life.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is a holistic and therapeutic approach to health and well-being. Our licensed massage therapists use various techniques to alleviate stress, release muscle tension, and promote relaxation. Beyond immediate relaxation, massage therapy can improve circulation, reduce pain, and enhance your overall quality of life. Whether you’re seeking relief from the demands of everyday life, managing specific pain-related issues, or prioritizing self-care, our massage therapy sessions provide a tranquil escape where you can unwind and rejuvenate. We believe that relaxation is a fundamental component of well-being, and our skilled therapists are dedicated to helping you achieve a state of harmony and renewed energy.
Acupuncture
Acupuncture is an ancient healing practice rooted in traditional Chinese medicine. It involves the precise insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of vital energy, or “Qi.” Acupuncture is known for its effectiveness in addressing a wide range of health concerns, including pain management, stress reduction, and the management of various medical conditions. By restoring balance to the body’s energy systems, acupuncture promotes overall well-being and vitality. Our experienced acupuncturists are dedicated to providing holistic care and supporting your journey toward improved health and wellness through this ancient healing practice.
Active Release Technique
Active Release Technique is a patented soft tissue treatment method aimed at addressing issues with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. Our certified ART practitioners use their hands to diagnose and treat these soft tissue conditions. ART is particularly effective in cases of overuse injuries, repetitive stress injuries, and musculoskeletal pain. It focuses on breaking down adhesions and restoring optimal function to the affected tissues. Whether you’re dealing with conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, or other soft tissue problems, our ART services offer a targeted approach to alleviate pain and improve your overall musculoskeletal health.
Laser Therapy
Laser therapy, or low-level laser therapy (LLLT), is a non-invasive treatment method that uses low-level lasers or light-emitting diodes to stimulate tissue repair and alleviate pain. It is particularly effective for conditions such as soft tissue injuries, joint pain, and musculoskeletal issues. Laser therapy promotes cellular regeneration and reduces inflammation, providing pain relief and accelerating the healing process. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing chronic pain, or seeking a non-surgical approach to pain management and rehabilitation, our skilled practitioners offer laser therapy to support your healing and enhance your overall well-being.

Why Choose Us?
Dr. Leslie McDowall and Dr. Kevin McIntyre are the founders and clinic directors of Burlington Sports Therapy.
Since 2005, they have been treating people in Burlington, Ontario with an evidence based approach to care, staying up to date with medical and chiropractic research so that their advice and their treatments are firmly grounded in good science. Utilising patented treatment techniques that are popular among elite athletes worldwide, Dr. McDowall and Dr. McIntyre’s approach places a large emphasis on the diagnosis and treatment of the soft-tissues (muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves and fascia). Perhaps this is different from what most people would expect in a chiropractor. This approach, combined with integrity, ethical decision making and empathy for patients have provided a strong foundation for the growth of the Burlington Sports Therapy name. In 2013, Burlington Sports Therapy moved to its current location at 3455 Harvester Road. We are now a true, comprehensive multidisciplinary sports medicine clinic with a great team of practitioners. Our core services include chiropractic, physiotherapy, athletic therapy and massage therapy and our special services include active release technique, graston technique, laser therapy and acupuncture.
