Dr. Justin Brooks was born and raised in Lower Sackville, Nova Scotia. He played varsity volleyball at the University of King’s college and the University of Guelph before graduating with his Bachelor of Science with Honours in Kinesiology from Dalhousie University. He then went on to continue his education at the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC).
During his time as a volleyball athlete, Dr. Brooks suffered an ankle injury and found success in chiropractic treatment. From this point forward he knew he wanted to be a chiropractor to help others get back to achieving their daily goals, optimizing their performance and keeping them as active as possible. Dr. Brooks is very involved in the volleyball community in Nova Scotia as an athlete, official and coach. He enjoys using sport and activity as a means for combatting both mental and physical health.
During his time at CMCC, Dr. Brooks had the pleasure of being selected to be a treating intern on the Friends For Life Bike Rally. This bike rally was a fundraiser for people living with HIV/AIDS and involved treating a lot of LGBT+ patients. During his time on this bike rally Dr. Brooks became passionate about providing a safe space for all people to feel comfortable being whoever they are while receiving the best care possible.
Dr. Brooks is a certified acupuncture provider and a member of the Nova Scotia College of Chiropractors and the Canadian Chiropractic Association. During his spare time, Dr. Brooks enjoys keeping active at the gym, playing volleyball and doing yoga and hanging out with his friends and family.
