Vernon Active Health Clinic is a multi-disciplinary health and wellness centre located in downtown Vernon. Our team offers an extensive range of services and shares a common goal to help you reach your optimum level of physical and mental well being.
Founded in 1994 by a former body builder and power lifter, Dr. Larry Kinakin, Vernon’s Valley Chiropractic is devoted to providing our community with corrective spinal care, pain relief, and full body health care for the whole family.
Our philosophy is to focus on treating the causes of your physical issues rather than just the symptoms. We believe that a functioning spine and healthy nerve system, which are the lifeline of your body’s nervous system, ensures the body can heal itself quicker and more efficiently. No matter a person’s age, you can always benefit from a chiropractic treatment.
Before seeing Dr.Larry I was getting shots for my pain. I a major back problem with arthritis and scoliosis the toes were numbing and the shots at the pain clinic were not working which meant that I would have to go on steroids or narcotics for pain. Not wanting to do narcotics I was looking for another way to help me. I have now been seeing Dr. Larry for 3 months and I have increased energy, am able to walk an hour or so without pain and am learning my limits.
I am mist pleased!!!Read more
Nucca is a very specific, safe and gentle chiropractic technique. The technique restores the bodies balance and posture to normal. It also removes pressure off the spinal cord and the brainstem where nerves supply the whole body. This restores the bodies ability to heal as normal nerve supply is restored. The technique is performed by taking very specific xrays of the neck and head. These films are analyzed and then a specific gentle adjustment is done to C1 or the first cervical vertebrae. There is no snapping or cracking or fast movements. This technique has been very helpful for issues from headaches and neck pain or stiffness to low back pain and sciatic pain issues. The clinic offers free 1/2 hr consultations so if you think your head is not on straight NUCCA Kelowna can get your head on straight. We look forward to hearing from you. Dr. Gary Thomson is the sole practitioner in the practice, is certified and has been practicing for 25 years.
My son injuried himself in hockey we were so impressed with Dr Thomson. He took xrays before and after the first adjustment. He didn't just get him moving that day by the 4th visit he had him moving normal and painfree. The Nucca method is unique and I must say he has restored my faith in chlropractic work. I highly recommend this clinic!!Read more

Chiropractic is a branch of the healing arts which is based upon the understanding that good health depends, in part, upon a normally functioning nervous system (especially the spine, and the nerves extending from the spine to all parts of the body). 'Chiropractic' comes from the Greek word Chiropraktikos, meaning 'effective treatment by hand.' Chiropractic stresses the idea that the cause of many disease processes begins with the body's inability to adapt to its environment. It looks to address these diseases not by the use of drugs and chemicals, but by locating and adjusting a musculoskeletal area of the body which is functioning improperly.
