What we do
Care that adds up over a lifetime
A working clinic — not a wellness brand. Spinal manipulation, decompression, custom orthotics, massage and rehab. We treat backs, necks, joints and the everyday wear of working in Cape Breton.
Spinal decompression therapy
Non-surgical traction for disc-related back and neck issues — herniation, sciatica, pinched nerves.
GaitScan analysis
Computerized gait + foot pressure scan to diagnose movement issues and prescribe orthotics.
Custom orthotics
Custom-fit insoles based on your GaitScan, for plantar fasciitis, knee pain and posture correction.
Registered massage therapy
Therapeutic massage with Sylvia. Pairs well with adjustments.
Active rehab + exercise therapy
On-site rehab gym for strengthening, mobility and post-injury recovery.
Why Regional
A clinic that's been on Prince Street for two decades.
Dr. Joel Dunn opened Regional Chiropractic in 2001. Same chiropractor. Same street. The kind of consistency that's harder and harder to find in Cape Breton — and we treat it like a responsibility.
- Walk-in friendly — no referral, no run-around
- Direct billing to most extended-health plans
- Massage therapy and rehab gym on-site
- GaitScan + custom-fitted orthotics under one roof
- Dakota the therapy dog (genuinely on staff)
