Iain Harrington Sports Chiropractor

Expérience fantastique: Iain is a great trainer. He is so encouraging & helpful. I feel so energetic after our workout. My husband says I am so much healthier since I started with Iain. Iain is the best at what he does in teaching us how to get fit, stronger,& healthier. Thank you Iain for sharing your knowledge with us.

Expérience fantastique: I recently joined the group with Iain Harrington to feel better and get stronger after double hip and back surgeries. Since I joined, I definitely start to feel stronger. The twice weekly work out sessions are fun. Iain’s expertise and knowledge are very helpful towards my goal of getting stronger and I generally feel better.

Expérience fantastique: I love this exercise group. So much support yet doing my own thing. It’s very focused on what you can do. And maybe surprisingly you can do more than what you think . I look forward to going to my sessions and afterwards feel so strong.

Expérience fantastique: Now in my mid-70s, and after having surgery and all the other issues that comes with age, I found myself feeling “old” (I know ... I am!).  Finding Iain’s Facebook page, and getting up the courage to contact him, has changed my perspective on life. He has become an advocate for me and has helped me realize that I can continue with an active lifestyle.  I’m so glad I have found this organization.  It is changing my whole outlook on this “latter part” of my life.  Thank you so much!

Expérience fantastique: I like the program Iain has set up for me to increase my strength and stability. In the class with Iain it is like having a personal trainer.A BIG plus for me.

Expérience fantastique: Iain brings a positive energy to each class we have. His has helped me to understand how my arthritis affects my joints along with giving me encouragement to look at the things I can do rather than dwell on the things I cannot do. He has helped me to manage pain better. He is always there to make sure we don’t overdo things , making sure we learn to do each exercise properly and encouraging us to reach a level that feels good to us. In the last few months I feel better about myself and what I can do. Thanks Iain for being so understanding and helpful!

Expérience fantastique: I have thouroughly enjoyed working with Dr. Iain Harrington. He is very knowledgeable but his greatest strength is meeting people where they are at in a kind, encouraging, supportive and FUN manner. Going to a gym can be a very intimidating experience, especially for older adults who have no workout experience. I have not worked with a trainer before, nor worked out in a gym but I can say that this has been a really interesting and helpful experience. I highly recomment that anyone who has health issues, consult with Iain to see what he can offer or recommend for healing.

Expérience fantastique: I was experiencing declining muscle strength, poor balance and pain …….I felt I had to try something new. Iain has been a fabulous mentor by meeting each one of us “where we are”, being encouraging, and keeping it fun for all of us with crazy games and a scheduled workout that measures our progress. Our group is friendly, encouraging, relaxed and fun, which is certainly motivating me to progress to my goals.

Expérience fantastique: Iain has helped me reach my goal to continue being active. An added bonus is that I now have the strength to do things that i didn’t think possible a year ago. Thank you so much Iain!

Expérience fantastique: I joined the group as i have issues with aging and an underlying condition with scoliosis. I wanted to strengthen my lower back and basically all of my joints to ensure as i age that pain wouldnt slow me down. And i felt that making a commitment to show up two times a week would hold me to that goal. I’ve never used a gym and now that i am 73 felt that it was an option for the younger generation. Well i am more than happy i did this as i am thoroughly enjoying it and feeling stronger after just 3 months. Being with a group of people in my own age group that have similar goals makes it that much easier. Iaan makes it easy in that he guides the group in their individual program on how to use the equipment and how to do the exercise properly. Without this group i would have just roamed around feeling out of place and probably would have only stuck to one or two pieces of equipment. I am very happy that i joined this group and would highly recommend you give it a whirl.

Expérience fantastique: Iain has made me feel important and is very knowledgeable. After my session I am energized and feeling good. Great place to get feeling better.

Expérience fantastique: Having been overweight most of my life the aches and pains of getting older and not moving was getting me down. I took a big chance on Iain and am glad I did. In a few short months my knees and feet don't hurt as much and my movement is better. Iain made sure I reached out to my family doctor and having been put on a new medication with some side effects, Iain has been very supportive of me especially if it means missing a session, which I truly regret. Thanks Iain and when, not if you open your own studio you can count on me.

Expérience fantastique: I am so thankful to have found Ian and this community. I've never tried this type of workout before, and even though I've only been involved a few weeks I feel stronger and very proud of myself 🙏 thank you Ian

Expérience fantastique: Initially I was a bit apprehensive about going to a chiropractor but after taking the first step and booking an appointment with Iain all my worries disappeared and I couldn’t be more grateful for his care and understanding. I’ve been seeing Iain for 7 months and his expertise has been instrumental in improving my overall wellbeing. He also has group settings that deal with a preventative approach to body, mind and joint health. If I could give more stars I would, so if you are sitting on the fence about your health and wellbeing take the first step and go see Iain, it’s a decision you will not regret.

Expérience fantastique: What a great group! Such a great way to learn in a small group of people with similar health issues! I’m learning to be comfortable in the gym, and how to use the equipment to help me build my strength and stability!.Iain is very helpful and knowledgeable! He’s making exercise fun! I’m so glad I signed up! Don’t hesitate to reach out to Iain!

Expérience fantastique: I was a little hesitant to start working out again as I hadn’t been in a gym since before Covid. Iain has been so encouraging and professional and he’s helped me build an “I can do it” belief in myself. There’s lots of equipment options and Iain will set up a routine tailored just for you, keeping in mind any injuries or aches you may have. My fellow classmates have been welcoming and kind as well. I’m so glad I jumped back in.

Expérience fantastique: Iain is the best! I am 68 with osteoarthritis pretty much in every joint, knees being the worst. Iain has shown me that it is possible to stay active. I was too intimidated to even walk in to a gym before. I now have the confidence to use all the equipment and know I am helping myself have an active future! Iain can adapt exercises so they work for everyone!

Expérience fantastique: Joining this great group has made working toward building strength and muscle before my hip surgery nothing but a positive experience, filled with fun, laughs and much support from everyone involved. Iian is always willing to guide me on the right track every step of the way. It's been a Terrific experience.

Expérience fantastique: Seeing Iain for my back injury has been a very positive experience that has impacted my life. Iain has a wealth of knowledge regarding injuries and he is keen to share valuable information in a way that can be understood easily. Iain conducted a very thorough initial assessment at my first appointment with him and I quickly learnt that he was assessing my health as a whole subjectivity not just the objective data. I will continue to work with Iain in the future he is an exceptional chiropractor that provides an unusually high quality standard of care for his patients.

Expérience fantastique: I began planing my health journey 2 years ago, Needed surgery on both shoulders, 50lb overweight aces and pains over my body. Paid off or down my debts to have less stress during my 9 months off. Left shoulder done on June 1 and began 2 sessions a week with Iain June 15, He has been a great instructor helping me simplify my routine and keep me moving, pushing enough to help me build confidence in working alone, slowing me down and explaining why it's necessary to build the proper mind set to keep motivated. If you want to feel better over all, Iain is the guy who will get you there, I recommend him to anyone who wants a simple routine easy to keep too and improve over all well-been.

Expérience fantastique: Was referred to Iain with my severe concussion and though his knowledge and practice of new age concussion studies he aided me in recovering at a healthy rate and getting back into normal life.

Expérience fantastique: I have see my fair share of physiotherapist and chiropractors over the years and have always been satisfied. However, I was completely taken back by the level of care I received from Iain. His attentive listening and thoughtful questioning reflect his genuine dedication. At no point do you feel rushed during the sessions. Furthermore, Iain's professionalism and commitment to staying up-to-date with the latest chiropractor knowledge contribute the feeling of being in the best of care. I feel extremely fortunate in finding Iain . He has my highest regard and recommendation.

Expérience fantastique: Iain was very knowledgeable and helpful with my arthritic knee. Thank you for your positive attitude in helping me move forward with my knee

Expérience fantastique: I would highly recommend Iain he was so compassionate and alleviated my concerns quickly. I was so worried about seeing a chiropractor as was my first time but certainly did not need to be. My only complaint is that I did not see him sooner After a very thorough appt he came up with a treatment plan -- and it worked !

Expérience fantastique: Iain has treated me several times for various reasons. Each visit is professional and personable. It is very clear that Iain enjoys his career and takes pride in his work. I would highly recommend Iain.

Expérience fantastique: I can happily recommend Iain. He spent some time asking questions and listening to my answers in assessing me and diagnosing my problems. He explained my condition, offered a realistic outlook and outlined treatment options. His approach to care is holistic and evidence-based, which is refreshing. But, as a patient who was used to "old-school" chiropractic care, it has brought the odd surprise. For example, he hasn't wanted to provide adjustments unless I needed them (which is actually how it should be). And my treatment plan has required a bit of effort and commitment on my part, in the form of a few regular exercises that I can feel are making me stronger. I think that if new patients keep an open mind, place their trust in Iain and put some effort into their treatment plan if required, they will be pleased with the results.

Expérience fantastique: Iain is a great practitioner and really listened to me in order to treat my back and sacral nerve issues. He was professional, knowledgeable and took the time to hear my issues and treat me. I would recommend Iain to anyone in pain and frustrated by symptoms impacting their life. Thanks again Iain.

Expérience fantastique: Happy to recommend Iain! I went to Iain with shoulder pain that had lasted several months and nothing I was doing seemed to be helping. Iain's assessment was thorough and he prescribed a few new-to-me exercises as homework. Within 3 weeks and 2 sessions, the pain was gone. I've added these exercises into my regular routine and I'm still pain free one month later and back to all regular activity!

Expérience fantastique: Ian is very good at what he does. He is able to educate you well on the indicators or causes of your condition, which he has well assessed. Treatment is particular to your condition, which personally, I can attest has been essential to recovering the norm of my movement/abilities.

Expérience fantastique: Was quick to isolate the issues I was having and was able to give me exercises that worked those areas well. I wish I had gone to see Iain sooner

Expérience fantastique: I would highly recommend Iain Harrington. He helped me feel healthy and like myself again, and realize my fitness goals. I will be going back to Iain in the future. I can’t recommend him enough.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Harrington's approach is innovative and holistic - a modern and welcome perspective. Unlike a lot of health professionals, his style is open, friendly and professional. He listens to what you have to say and welcomes your input. He has many 'tools' in his arsenal and is expert at finding the ones that work for you. I highly recommend Dr. Harrington and I am extremely happy to be working with him. He has helped me tremendously.

Expérience fantastique: I have had knee issues for quite sometime, and had recently messed up my back and it just never felt the same. Iain is very knowledgeable and great at explaining what is going on. I also was very nervous about seeing a chiropractor, but working with Iain is great and I wish I gone in sooner.

Expérience fantastique: Ian was very good at locating the tweak in my shoulder and gave me good workouts and advice that I still use today! I would definitely recommend him!

Expérience fantastique: I went to Iain with serious shoulder pain that had persisted for months. He took the time to diagnose the cause, educate me about the cause and habits that contribute, then began setting up a program that would turn it around. I have seen vast improvement in my pain and mobility since I started working with Iain, he is a knowledgeable practitioner but also an amazing cheerleader to keep me motivated. It is obvious that he genuinely cares about my progress. I don't hesitate to recommend him!

Expérience fantastique: I could barely walk because of severe lower back pain when I went in to see Dr Harrington for the first time. He spent about 45 minutes with me. When I left I was able to walk normal with very little pain. I was so grateful to him for the pain relief. Within a couple days, I had zero pain in my lower back. I would recommend Dr Harrington to anyone that is interested in having modern chiropractic treatment.

Expérience fantastique: Evidence based treatment drew me to Dr Ian Harrington when the pain in my hips was so bad it interfered with my ability to walk. My first appointment was an eye opener as Dr. Harrington listened carefully to my tales of woe. He then explained his (evidence) based approach to healing and it certainly made sense to me. After examining me for flexibility and strength and any possible damage to my hips he designed a fitness regime that reassured me that I could be fit and healthy even though I am in the shade of 75. Within three weeks the pain was almost all gone and no longer interfering with my sleep. Do I still get pain? You bet! But now it is the pain of a serious workout and I have earned it! I feel empowered and confident that under his care the final lingering ache will soon be under control. Would I recommend Ian Harrington? Yes! I most certainly would! He is a bright, personable and caring man with an wholistic approach to chiropractic medicine that is refreshing. He worked WITH me to develop a healing program designed specifically for my needs. Thank you Dr. Harrington!!

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Harrington is the best! He's incredible knowledgeable and, I believe, truly cares for his clients and their well being. I feel blessed to be working with a professional that has my best interests at heart.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Iain is, hands-down, the most diligent, thorough and honest chiropractor in town. He conducted a complete, 1 hour assessment on me when I had some low-back pain, and helped ease my fears that it was “serious”. It really only took a few treatments before I was back to my usual routine lifting heavy weights. He also helped my husband recover from his back injury and he’s back to his usual activity level. Campbell River / Comox Valley is so fortunate to have him. if you’ve had bad chiropractic experiences before like I have, trust me, Dr. Harrington is different.

Expérience fantastique: Awesome experience. I was in pain constantly with my right hip and leg..most days I didn't feel like doing anything or going anywhere. All that has changed for me...I do and go all the time now. He is very wise for a young man and he asks alot of questions that guides him to the route of ones problems. I am truly grateful for all of his help And guidance for the future. Thank you Dr. Harrington Wendy Fischer

Expérience fantastique: For the latter half of last year, my hip was bothering me and Dr. Harrington was able to fix it in 15 minutes! My hip had been seizing up after I drove and painful at night while trying to sleep on it. For months, I was concerned about what was wrong with me, how much treatment would cost and if it was worth having the radiation of an X-ray. My aunt and mom have hip problems so I was wondering if it would be a life sentence. Dr. Harrington explained that sometimes X-rays are necessary, but in his assessment, the cost of an X-ray would outweigh the benefit. He has a friendly, honest, reassuring nature and of course I was convinced after he treated me and the pain went away.

Expérience fantastique: I highly recommend Dr. Harrington. I have had issues with my lower back for years. He spent time with me and explained so much about back issues. He taught me the tools I needed to correct and strengthen my back. My back has never felt better. Thank you so much!

Expérience fantastique: I saw Iain after a major sciatica event that produced intense nerve pain and restricted all of my physical activities. His approach being “knowledge is power” helped me tremendously in understanding of my condition. Effective adjustments and strength exercise given to me helped and gave me confidence that my problem will end soon. Iain is a guy I will be looking for if my disc decides to herniate again.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Iain spent the time to diagnose my issue properly. He ensured that my own misconceptions were cleared up. We worked together on a treatment plan and I am happy to be pain free. I would highly recommend Dr. Iain.

Expérience fantastique: Dr. Iain Harrington is a gem! He is very professional, patient, and caring in his practice. He answered all my questions fully, and provided a safe space to allow for an amazing healing experience. He is not only a fantastic chiropractor, but a great listener. I highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. A+++ !

Expérience fantastique: I have never had such amazing care from any health practitioner. I highly highly recommend Dr.Harrington at yellow cedar.
