What Our Clients Are Saying
I can’t say enough good things about this decompression clinic. It genuinely changed my life. I came in with severe pain with two slipped discs at L4–L5 that were pinching a nerve. Both of my feet were numb and tingling for months, and I was dealing with periodic leg tingling and sciatica that made day-to-day life feel overwhelming. I purchased the 20-session package, which included spinal decompression on the machine, chiropractic care, and cold laser therapy. After 4 months in my recovery journey and completing the sessions, I’m currently pain-free and I’ve had little or zero numbness in my feet after 3 weeks. My daily pain went from a 7-8/10 down to a 0–2/10 within just a couple weeks of my sessions, and I honestly feel like I have my life back. The team is incredible. They’re thorough, knowledgeable, and truly have your health and best interests at heart. Every time I walk in, they make me feel welcomed and cared for, like I’m in a safe place to heal. If you’re struggling and don’t know what to do next, I can’t recommend this clinic enough! Thank you all!!
Dr Chong and his team are amazing to work with! The DRX9000 machine paired with his accurate adjustments gave me great relief and continued improvement! Would recommend to anyone!
I couldn't stand, walk, sit or drive. I was in a lot of pain. Tried medications, injections, physio, etc. Nothing worked. Was bedridden for 3 1/2 months before I discovered Chong online and after his assessment, he found I had mild degenerative on L5/S1 and major spine misaligned. So I started 10 weeks (20 sessions) of DRX-9000 spinal decompression and spine alignment. By the end of December, I was able to stand, walk, sit and drive. I returned to work a week later. I can't thank him enough for giving me my life back and got me out of depression. He is IT. He knows his stuff. He's direct, honest and always get to the point which I 100% needed but he is also nice and funny guy. I do appreciate his sense of humour. He has amazing team (assistants and front desk). I highly recommend you guys to see him. I know where to go if anything happen to my spine again in the future.
My dad is in his 80's and has disc herniation, which became very severe after a fall 3 months ago. He could barely walk and was in severe pain. We tried everywhere, including family physician, Emergency Room, etc., but either didn't help with the pain or couldn't get in with an appointment. Luckily we found Dr. Chong! He was able to see us immediately and accurately assess the situation. We just completed a treatment cycle of DRX9000 spinal decompression and the result is amazing! My dad now has little to no pain, is able to walk without support. He still has numbness but as Dr. Chong explained, the numbness will take some time to heal. We are truly grateful for Dr. Chong and her very helpful staffs.
I have been seeing chiropractors my whole life. Since I was about 8. After living the life I have, I wouldn’t be walking without them. However after 43 years of rodeo, motocross, freestyle skiing, off road racing and jumping monster trucks, I reached my end and wasn’t able to get fixed anymore. They just couldn’t make the pain in my lower back and down my leg go away. When I reached a point where sitting was unbearable, lying down was worse, standing was almost impossible, walking was difficult and sneezing brought it all together in a crippling shot, from my lower back to my toes. I called my wife and said I think I’m done. She found Dr. Alan Chong called his office. She explained what I was going through and had an appointment for me a day or so later. I went in and we went over some X-rays I’d already had. He decided an MRI would be best to fully understand what was going on. Carrie up front got me an appointment at a private lab I believe the next day. He switched it to a CT due to my work in metal. When the results came back (which were right away) he found I had two herniated discs in my lower back. Along with other issues from my past. As well there was alternative issues that added to back pain and he passed it onto another specialist. I’ve never encountered anything like this. It was so over the top, I’ve never experienced this kind of care or interest. Enough babbling, Dr. Chong set up sessions for me. With the DRX 9000, laser therapy, adjustments as well as supplements to help the discs heal best they can. I’m only half way through the sessions and the relief is great. I have days where I feel normal. I walk, I work and I can sit again. Just no more stunts. If you aren’t keen on surgery or spending your life taking pain medication Dr. Alan Chong is definitely worth a visit.
I had a very positive experience with the DRX 9000 spinal decompression treatment. Dr Chong and his staffs was professional and attentive. The treatment was comfortable and effective. I noticed a clear improvement over time and would highly recommend it to anyone seeking relief.
I am half way through my decompression therapy for an herniated disc, and was completely pain free after just a couple visits. Thanks Dr. Alan

Where do I even start? If I could write a novel, I would but I am going to keep to the point, simple and sweet. My lower back pain started in July 2023, I couldn't sit, stand, walk or drive. I took LOA from work. I tried medications and after going places before MRI in August, I discovered I have mild degenerative on L5/S1. I then had facet injection, epidural injection and more physiotherapy and nothing worked. They kept saying it is my muscles. I knew something was not right and I knew it was my spine so I found Dr. Chong on google in October (and thanks to his amazing reviews), I signed up to see him. I didn't have expectation, hope or faith that time because I was constantly being disappointed with the outcomes before that but I kept going, thankfully to my spouse who push me to be positive. I went in to see Dr. Chong for an assessment and in 30 minute, he immediately noticed several things - calluses on my feet and uneven hips so he prompted me to get a X Ray then lo and behold, I have unaligned spine, bulge disc, degenerative discs (L3/L4 and L5/S1). So I went in for 10 weeks (20 sessions) of spinal decompression with DRX-9000, adjustment and laser each time. I completed my 20th session on December 22. I am now sitting on my office chair typing this out without any pain. I can sit, stand, walk and drive. I am 80% recovered. I will be going back for more adjustment this month and I am looking forward to it. I went back to work yesterday after five months LOA. I can't thank Dr. Chong enough for giving me my life back and take me out of depression. Dr. Chong KNOWS his stuff and he is IT. If you have any issues, do not hesitate to get help from him. Over time, I got to know him and his sense of humour, and once you get to know him, he is easy to talk to where he would listen and explain what you need to know, do and don't. He's also honest which I appreciate. Well, I truly appreciate everything he did. He also has excellent team - front desk receptionist and an assistant. Two thumbs up and five stars.
Dr Chong is a game changer. Spinal decompression worked incredibly well for me. Over the years when my back flares up he gets me back in shape quickly. Super guy and extremely knowledgeable
As a retired 76 year old who has suffered and continued to suffer with a debilitating back problem, I am writing this to reveal that there is help out there. After reaching a point that I was unable to walk for short distances due to severe pain emanating from my lower back and extending down to my legs, I had to do something. Regular chiropractic treatments provided brief relief, but did not alleviate the problem. After a series of x-rays and an MRI revealed compression between the L3& L4 discs and also between the L4&L5 discs. Consultation at the Spinal Clinic at the Foothills Hospital resulted with advice of surgery and cortisone injections. Neither of these options appealed to me and I subsequently investigated the viability of spinal decompression. After several inquiries I chose the Calgary Spinal Decompression Clinic due to the thorough information received by telephone. From the friendly atmosphere of the receptionists to Dr. Chong and his team, the experience is amazing. Dr. Chong emphasizes that this is not a cure, but helps alleviate the severe pain allowing a person to resume some normal activities such as walking. The DRX9000 machine along with laser treatment and back adjustments, have done this for me.”

After 2 spinal surgeries and facing a third for herniated discs, sciatica and degenerating discs accompanied by unbearable lower back pain, I was referred to Dr. Chong for Spinal Decompression Therapy. Dr. Chong and his staff were thorough, professional and wonderful to deal with. I was hesitant, but hopeful. After the 3rd or 4th treatment, I found relief. After the 10th treatment, I was 100% pain free. After the full 20 treatments, I considered myself well again. It was really quite miraculous. It is a rather expensive treatment, but in relation to not having to go through a third spinal surgery, it was priceless. I’m glad that I did it and could easily get on with living my life again.

Severe sciatic pain caused by bulging discs, made me dependent on medically prescribed pain killers, which created havoc with my digestive system. A friend referred me to Dr. Chong’s Care facility, where I found effective professional care and relief from pain. At age 78, I had given up hope of ever walking normally again, but the DRX treatments, chiropractic adjustments and laser treatments have indeed accomplished this, and are worth the financial expenditure. Thankfully, I can now live normally, go for walks, and enjoy life.

After trying many therapies with no avail I found Dr Chong and made the effort to travel to Calgary from Australia to try his treatment regime. Both Dr Chong and Alda have been very helpful. The treatment has definitely eased the pain and I’m just over halfway through the sessions. Anyone experiencing disc problems I recommend seeing Dr. Alan Chong and trying his therapy before attempting any type of invasive surgery.

Dr. Alan Chong is a great chiropractor. He has helped with my back pain tremendously, and has taught me valuable lessons on how to be preventative towards future back pain. I always have a pleasant visit, and definitely recommend his clinics.

Dr. Chong and the staff are amazing. I’ve had back pain for years, and after seeing Dr. Chong I’m almost back to normal after only a month. Highly recommend

Awesome care and options for any aches & pains. If you have any phobia relating to chiropractors, this is the place to go, to learn about what scares you, with zero pressure to have you commit to anything.

Amazingly skilled practitioners. Helped me tremendously with my chronic neck and back problems. I’ve been to many clinics in Calgary & even Vancouver when I lived there. This by far is the best as far as results. Also the staff is wonderful.

I’ve been going to Dr. Chong for over 10 years. As a full-time oil and gas worker as well as a part-time personal trainer/business owner, I know the importance of chiropractic and how it helps me function at 100%. Dr. Chong keeps me informed on my progress and the ever changing services his office offers. I get an adjustment once every two weeks and it makes a huge difference. I haven’t been on seizure medication since 2000. Chiropractic works! Dr. Chong doesn’t just work on the neck and spine, he deals with joints as well. The service, friendly staff and affordability keep me happy and healthy. I recommend the Centre For Chiropractic Care to all my friends, co-workers, family and clients.

I’ve had chronic back pain since my early 20s, so almost half my life now. I have seen may specialists of all sorts, done physio, injections, massages and consulted with a surgeon. I now live mostly pain free and can do many sports I couldn’t do before. Thanks to regular strengthening exercises and periodic excellent adjustments. DRX 9000 (spinal decompression therapy) started my recovery, followed by regular chiropractic adjustments. I have never experienced better adjustments than at this clinic. Dr Chong’s precise and innovative adjustments make all the difference. I used to think regular chiropractic adjustments were scams, but I have experienced that they make all the difference for chronic back pain. And it has to be good adjustments like the ones your get here. Investing time and money in other treatments to heal back pain without including GOOD chiropractic adjustments is a waist of time and money. Visiting this clinic is not like visiting any other clinic. You will get life changing advice and expertise.

After over thirty years of Chiropractic care from various average Chiropractors I have finally found some outstanding professionals who listen to my description of difficulty and then provide me with exceptional treatment that brings me RELIEF! Everyone including reception, Massage therapist and Chiropractors, have been wonderful to deal with. They also follow up with me to make sure I return for maintenance treatment that is most effective. It is great to know these dedicated practitioners who take their work and patient care seriously.

Experienced nerve pain in left arm as a result of a bulging disk in neck between C5-C6 vertebrae. In a very short time Dr. Chong assessed, identified the problem and focused on a course of action. Through a process of adjustments, laser treatment and acupuncture my pain was eliminated. I have been a patient of the Centre of Chiropractic Care for 4 years and have always been extremely pleased with the results and the continual focus on optimal health. I recommend all my family & friends to the Centre for Chiropractic Care.

Very knowledgeable chiropractors who have helped with my headaches and jaw pain, as well as improved my posture. Acupuncture and massage are also great!”

I’ve always received great results by having either chiropractic or massage therapy sessions at Centre for Chiropractic Care. Most recently they have helped me work through a sports injury and we are I’m now back to just maintaining positive health. Thank you! Dr. Karis Langvand!

Have gone for treatment following a car accident and after a sports injury. Made me able to both sit for periods of time as well as being able to remain active!!

My wife and I are very happy with the staff at Centre for Chiropractic Care (Crowfoot). Our first experience was at the end of August. My wife was having severe lower back pain and could almost not move. My wife has had a history of back problems, but this was much worse than normal. We were able to see Dr. Alan Chong on very short notice. We went for one treatment a day, with an adjustment and laser therapy. My wife went from being almost immobile to nearly herself again in three days. Her turnaround was nothing short of amazing. She continues with treatment in order to heal her back and hopefully we will see a reduction in the frequency and severity of any further issues. We appreciate that Dr. Chong and the other staff are focused on spinal health for the long term and not just the quick fix for today’s pain.

When I entered into Dr. Alan Chong and practice my situation was dire with chronic neck pain and numerous symptoms associated with a degenerative condition from tingling to dizziness to ringing in the ears. I learned of spinal decompression and chose Dr. Chong’s office. With laser and regular follow-up treatment, my most serious symptoms have resolved. Dr. Chong approached my case from an holistic perspective from which I have greatly benefited. He and his support staff have offered hope, friendliness and professionalism throughout.

If you’re experiencing pain you’ll find Dr. Chong can provide solutions and offer hope and support. He reviewed my xray with me and put together a program which has led me back to my pain free way of life. Dr. Chong is professional and knowledgeable, his experience speaks volumes in results. Look no further for pain relief, call today and book your appointment through Carrie.

Receiving my latest MRI spinal results I knew I had seek out a chiropractor interested in working with me to be proactive in slowing down any further degenerating to my spine. My chiro did not appear interested in changing up my regular adjustments, just printing off more stretches for me to do. As my kids live in Calgary I started searching here. Thinking the time may come that spinal decompression may be necessary. I sought out a doctor specializing in this. I am glad I came to see Dr. Chong. He went over my MRI results with me very thoroughly. (My other chiro did not review results with me, just read the report.). After a thorough exam of my spine he was very honest with me that I was not yet a candidate for spinal depression but would use adjustments that were specific to my spine. When I returned for my second appointment, Dr. Chong had a treatment plan ready for me and again went over findings of first exam. I had 2 adjustments this week and am feeling great. I am thankful I have found a doc to work with me going forward. I would also like to say, when I sent an email on a weekend requesting info on Dr. Chong, I had a reply from Carrie (front reception) first thing Monday morning. Usually these days you don't hear back from anyone for at least a week! Carrie is awesome too!

I first started seeing Dr Chong when I was having some issues with my hand and wrist. I have since been treated by Dr Chong for neck arthritis, shoulder pain, and a whiplash from a motor vehicle accident, all with good results. He has also more recently been treating my husband for a painful neck condition. He has been pain free since his treatments. We find Dr Chong to be very professional and extremely knowledgeable. He is very precise, which gives us peace of mind and confidence in his judgement and abilities during our treatments. We also appreciate the fact that he is cautious and doesn’t venture into a treatment plan without first confirming a definite diagnosis. I would, and have recommended him to others.

I have seen a lot of chiropractors in my life, and dr. Chong is definitely one of the best for adjustments. I used to drive 100km to see him regularly before I found a permanent solution to my chronic back pain. I couldn’t recommend him more.

FOOT SURPRISE! Dr. Chong is extremely thorough.! When going for my regular adjustment, I mentioned that I had hurt my foot a month ago and that perhaps my back was compensating for my limp. (I was had been having trouble getting my foot to heal properly. I had seen my MD and 2 Physiotherapists.)
