Bedford Center Chiropractic

Bedford Chiropractic is a healthcare facility that focuses on providing top-notch chiropractic services to individuals dealing with chronic, recurrent, or severe pain in their back, neck, head, and other parts of the body. We understand the impact that pain can have on an individual's life, making everyday activities a struggle and forcing them to give up enjoyable hobbies. Our mission is to identify the root cause of our patients' pain, help them correct it, and teach them how to maintain a healthy, pain-free lifestyle.

Our approach is centered on making our patients as self-sufficient as possible. We achieve this by using rehabilitation and home exercises to empower them to safely resume their activities with a better understanding of what causes pain, how to avoid it, and when to seek treatment. While we offer treatment options when required, our ultimate goal is to help our patients take control of their health and well-being.

At Bedford Chiropractic, we pride ourselves on providing excellent service to our patients. We go above and beyond to determine the cause of their pain and help them get back to activity as quickly as possible. Our patients' testimonials speak to the high level of service and care they receive from our team.

Our Team

Our team is led by Dr. Mark Bodnar, a highly skilled and experienced chiropractor who has been helping people resolve their pain and get back to activity for over 25 years. Dr. Bodnar first experienced the benefits of chiropractic care following a whiplash injury from a downhill skiing crash. After completing his B.Sc. in Biology at the University of Western Ontario, he went on to the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. He moved to Nova Scotia in 1994 and established the Bedford Chiropractic clinic.

Dr. Bodnar is a member of the Canadian Chiropractic Association (CCA), the Nova Scotia College of Chiropractors (NSCC), the College of Chiropractic Sports Sciences (Canada), and is a provider for the Canadian Sport Center Atlantic. He is also a member of the West Hartford Group, a think-tank dedicated to helping chiropractors solidify their position as non-surgical spine care specialists. With a lifetime of activity and sports involvement, Dr. Bodnar has personally experienced many injuries and has a thorough knowledge of proper treatment and rehabilitation techniques.

Our team also includes Dawn Evong, a registered massage therapist (RMT). Dawn has been a practicing RMT for over 15 years and has a particular interest in treating patients with chronic pain and tension headaches. She uses a variety of techniques, including deep tissue massage, trigger point therapy, and myofascial release, to help her patients find relief from their pain.
