Dr. Peterson is a Calgary chiropractor with a specialty Fellowship in Physical and Occupational Rehabilitation. He is interested in evaluating and treating body movement, posture, strength and balance.

Dr. Peterson has been very active in the chiropractic profession, serving as President of the Canadian Chiropractic Association, President of the Canadian Chiropractic Research Foundation, Registrar for the College of Chiropractors of Alberta and Chairman of the Commission on Accreditation. He presently serves as Chairman of the Board of Trustees of Northwestern Health Sciences University in Minneapolis. It has been Dr. Peterson’s goal to establish a center for natural health care, with a focus on back pain and overall wellness with a team of health care providers. Active Back to Health Centre opened in the Chinook Professional Building in 2000 comprising of chiropractic, massage therapy, naturopathy, acupuncture, nutrition, exercise therapy, rehabilitation and counselling. Dr. Peterson believes that no one health care practitioner can provide all the answers and that working as a team is the most effective manner to achieve optimal health. In his out of office time, Dr. Peterson enjoys the outdoors. Weekends will find him either at the lake or in the mountains with family and friends. David and his wife Nola have three grown children and three amazing grandchildren.

It's great that you're considering chiropractic care for various conditions. Chiropractors can indeed provide treatments to address neuromusculoskeletal issues, including those related to scoliosis, hip and pelvis pain, and shoulder arthritis. However, it's important to consult with a qualified healthcare professional, such as a local chiropractor, to determine the most appropriate treatment approach for your specific situation.

For scoliosis, chiropractic care may involve spinal adjustments and exercises aimed at improving posture and reducing spinal curvature. A chiropractor can assess the severity of scoliosis and provide appropriate treatment recommendations.

In the case of hip and pelvis pain, chiropractors can assess the underlying cause of the pain and provide treatments such as spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, exercises, and other modalities to alleviate symptoms and promote healing.

Regarding shoulder arthritis, chiropractors may offer non-surgical treatment options to help manage the condition. These options can include rest, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications (NSAIDs), chiropractic adjustments to improve range of motion, corticosteroid injections, and heat/cold therapy. However, the specific treatment plan would depend on the individual's condition and should be discussed with a chiropractor.

Remember, while chiropractic care can be beneficial for many individuals, it's important to have a thorough evaluation by a qualified healthcare professional to ensure that the treatments are appropriate for your specific needs. Consulting with a local chiropractor would allow you to discuss your condition in detail and determine the best course of action.
