Who We Are

One Team. One Goal. Your Recovery.

At Back to Function, our top-rated team believes in a collaborative and science-driven approach to care.  Our specialized team of clinicians includes chiropractors, sports chiropractors, physiotherapists, a sports medicine physician, registered massage therapists, and registered kinesiologists —all working together to create a customized treatment plan that gets fast results.

Our Services

Our approach is designed to relieve pain, improve function, and support your active lifestyle. Whether you’re recovering from injury, wanting to boost performance, or improve your overall physical health, we combine expertise and collaboration to help you reach your goals—quicker, safer, and with lasting results.

Chiropractic

Chiropractic care restores healthy joint and muscle function to help you move better and return to daily activities. Our chiropractors assess, diagnose, and create personalized treatment plans to speed up recovery and deliver lasting results.

Physiotherapy

Our physiotherapists combine expert knowledge and hands-on skills to assess and treat injuries or conditions. Using targeted exercises and rehab, we help restore function and support lasting recovery. 

Sports Medicine

Train smarter, recover faster, and perform at your peak. Our team supports recreational and elite athletes with Sports Medicine to help you stay in the game — and ahead of the competition.

Registered Massage Therapy

Our Registered Massage Therapists use targeted techniques to relieve muscle tension, improve circulation, and support overall wellness. Massage therapy can help manage arthritis, tendonitis, joint stiffness, sprains, strains, and other muscle-related conditions. It’s also effective for reducing stress, easing headaches and migraines, and treating inflammation-related issues.

Registered Kinesiology

Reclaim confidence in movement through focused, functional programming. With Kinesiology-based rehab plans, we help you improve movement patterns, prevent injury, and return to the activities you love.

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization

Restore control from the core with DNS-based movement therapy. By retraining your body’s foundational motor patterns, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization helps improve posture, enhance stability, and reduce pain—so you can move with intention and strength.

Workplace Injuries

We offer Workplace Injury Prevention and Rehabilitation services to reduce downtime and support employee wellness. Whether you're returning to work or creating a safer environment for your team, we deliver customized, occupational-focused care.

Motor Vehicle Injuries

100+ 5-Star Google Reviews

“For 18 years, my therapists, doctors and top North American neurologists said the loss of feeling in my feet and hands was permanent and progressive. Finally, I was referred to Back to Function and was prescribed Active Release treatments. After my first session, I felt feeling begin to return. Two years later, I only have a small amount of numbness left around my little toe.”

“I practice 2 times a day/5 days a week and that takes quite a toll on my body. For the past 3 years, Dr. Rayfield has given me regular adjustments and Active Release Therapy to help increase my flexibility. The exercises he prescribed not only healed my injuries, they helped strengthen my shoulder and back to prevent future injury. I am confident my body is strong and able to perform at the highest level. Without Dr. Rayfield, I don’t think I would be where I am today, athletically or physically.“

“I was scheduled for a painful manipulation under anesthetic after my first knee replacement. But Back to Function and Water Exercise Therapy saved me from that. When I had my other knee replaced, I started Water Therapy as soon as the stitches healed. What a difference in my recovery! Today, I’m pain free and walking the golf course three days a week.”

“If not for Dr. Bell, my career would have ended after my injury. He guided me through surgery, made my recovery as short as possible and helped me reach even bigger heights. I won silver at the 2004 Olympic Games and my European record time still stands unbeaten.”

“It’s a privilege to have Dr. Bell and his staff as a major part of the Med/Sci team dealing with the needs of skaters at Mariposa. Active Release has been significant in resolution time. Time is impossible to replace and we are thankful for the services you provide that simply make the difference.”

“I was only hoping to be free from the pain of my injury. But after just 6 weeks of treatment, strengthening and learning to control my body, my athletic performance has also improved – dramatically! I look forward to my weekly visits. You rock!”
