Dr. John Balkansky graduated from The Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in 1997, and founded the iWellness.ca Rehab & Wellness Clinic in 2007. Dr. Balkansky takes a functional approach to care, incorporating chiropractic principles, along with other treatment options, in order for his patients to reach their maximum recovery potential. His passion for healing compliments his personal approach to health care, looking at the entire person and treating each case as unique. He performs thorough assessments of structural and functional aspects of injuries and uses this information to provide the most relevant and effective treatment options for each person as an individual. Although he focuses his practice mainly on the treatment of sports-related and motor vehicle injury rehabilitation, he also deals with a wide range of other conditions, including acute injuries, supportive care and chronic conditions. In the past, he has performed functional ability evaluations as the director of an assessment centre and as a result, has extensive experience in this area. He works closely with family physicians and other health care providers in order to maximize his patients recovery. Dr. Balkansky is registered on the Theralase website as one of the few certified clinics within the City of Toronto to employ the TLC-1000 Theralase therapeutic laser system and it has become one of the main treatment modalities employed at iWellness.ca Rehab & Wellness Clinic. Dr. Balkansky is fluent in English and Bulgarian, and also speaks some French, Russian, Italian, and Spanish. Dr. John is a self proclaimed “techno geek”, and his hobbies include playing the piano, drawing, painting and is also a Sci-Fi and action movie buff.
