The Lighthouse story began in 2009 with a blank slate and a big dream.
Our founders, Dr. Graham Jenkins (Dr. J) and his wife, Jan had a dream to create a regional wellness centre that focused on human performance, spinal correction and nerve system rehabilitation. Full body wellness.
Big vision, humble beginnings.
Fast forward 15 years and Lighthouse is now a go-to clinic in the Okanagan for performance-based structural and neurological correction.
All that being said, if you want excellence in your diagnosis, a well-rounded and integrated care plan then Lighthouse is for you. Our care plans can be for individuals or entire families and include corrective chiropractic, kinesiology, exercise and massage therapy.
We not only deal with your pain, but we will see you through to heal your body and likely perform better than before you were injured or felt pain.
Currently, we have a team of chiropractors, kinesiologists, massage therapists, a level 2 certified facial stretch therapist, and a top-notch administrative team that keeps everything running smoothly.
If you and your family are looking for a strategy that can boost your health, and increase your energy and performance then we’d love to meet you and find out if what we do fits the dreams and goals you have for your life.
I’m sitting a lot when I’m working, and what I started noticing is that I have a lot of lower back pain and middle back pain, and it started bugging me a lot. The very first moment when I came through the doors, I saw the friendliness, this human approach to the problems. I did go to a lot of places before and it was not the same. Here kind of felt like home.
The best part about being here as a patient is you get answers, so it’s simplicity. Being able to understand what’s going on, and being able to actually make those changes in your day to day life. I would highly recommend to anybody that I know to definitely come see Lighthouse.
I had chronic upper back shoulder neck pain for the last eight to nine years, and I was really just hoping to get it fixed. I can sleep at night without waking up, I can drive without my left arm going numb. Everything day to day, I feel better.
Since I was 12, I’ve had scoliosis that I had 13 back surgeries for. I’ve had metal rods put in and taken out and I’ve always had back pain since then. So far every month or so they do X-rays and a progress report, and it’s always been positive, it’s always going in the right direction we want it to go.
I’d absolutely recommend it, not just for chiro but I’ve had kinesiology as well and I think it’s a fabulous team.
Honestly I couldn’t drive, I couldn’t check my blind spot, I couldn’t move my back at all. I felt like my life is over and I didn’t even know how to fix it. I remember I was crying after my first adjustment, first from relief and from “Oh my God, I can feel my back again!”
They are an integral part of my journey, and for me to maintain my baseline of pain management. It all comes together to help me maintain that quality and that baseline to help me managing my pain.
