Program Description
A truly integrated program designed to synergize the effects of restoring physical function, mental well-being, and internal metabolic health simultaneously, to create powerful and long-lasting change.
This Program Is for Individuals That Have:
- Lost hope and don’t know what else they can do to heal their problem.
- Experienced no long-lasting improvement from prior treatments and efforts.
- Been dealing with a challenge with your body that now affects many areas of your life.
What Will Be Required from You?
Every person on this earth is capable of healing. When we struggle with something for so long and have tried many things, we often lose hope. We don’t believe that we have what it takes to be in control again and we accept this is just how life is now. This negative self-belief is very limiting and often gets in the way of experiencing true healing.
When a problem is around for an extended period of time, we naturally find ways to adapt and change ourselves in order to reduce the challenge we experience. This adds many layers of compensation onto an already complex problem. We all know it takes time to create true and lasting change (eg. healing a broken bone, building muscle mass, losing weight, creating a new habit). This program requires a large commitment (time, motivation, focus, finances, energy) so it is not for anyone looking for a quick fix without creating true change in their lives. Your level of commitment to the program will be reflected in the amount of results you experience.
What Makes This Treatment Different from What You've Tried in the Past?
- We tackle Pain from all angles simultaneously, with an awareness of how many different aspects of the body contribute to the overall problem. Trying to deal with them one at a time doesn’t fix the problem, as that single avenue isn’t enough to break the dysfunctional pattern and create global change in the body. This is why our program includes Physiotherapy, Chiropractic Care, Psychotherapy and Functional Medicine.
- You often hear the term multidisciplinary used at various clinics, and it is often not the case, as they just offer multiple services that aren’t integrated. The Body Code is designed to specifically co-integrate the changes required at the physical, mental and metabolic levels at the appropriate time along the healing journey.
- Our practitioners meet weekly to discuss the progress of all patients in the program. This allows them to communicate and stay on the same page regarding all updates, positive changes, sticking points and offer insight from their different perspectives. You have an entire team behind you!
Level of Commitment
- Time for Appointments in the Clinic: depending on the findings in the assessment, your appointments over the 12 weeks will be a minimum 24 hours (average of 2 hours per week) up to a maximum 36 hours (average of 3 hours per week) with a higher proportion occurring in the first 6 weeks.
- Time Outside of the Clinic: There will be various exercises and activities that will need to be done daily at home or work, outside of your appointments.
- Motivation: You have to want to create a change in your lifestyle and habits, and do the work required.
- Focus: Consistency is a necessity with the appointments, home exercises and lifestyle changes over the course of the 12 weeks.
- Finances: Insurance health benefits usually only last several sessions and will likely only cover a fraction of the program.
- Energy: This is a program that requires dedication and starting it at a time you have the energy to commit to everything above is key.
What Are the First Steps?

- Combined Physiotherapy and Chiropractic Assessment for physical function
- The structure of this appointment allows you to get an extra 30 minutes for the assessment and $60 in savings compared to our regular Physiotherapy and Chiropractic assessments.
- Psychotherapy Assessment for mental and emotional well-being
- Functional Medicine for internal metabolic health and lifestyle
Based on the findings during the assessment as well as your goals, each practitioner will place you in a specific Treatment Stream, which will determine the frequency and length of your appointments.
Once all three assessments have been completed you may begin the program the following week and start your healing journey.
What Role Will Each Practitioner Play in the Program?
Physiotherapy
Physiotherapy’s role starts with assessing how your body is responding to and compensating for your pain. This is done through an assessment of your posture, movement of all your joints, strength and quality of activation of your muscles, and ultimately your ability to coordinate all of these together. Once they have analyzed how your body is currently functioning, they will utilize a combination of techniques and exercises to optimize your neuro-musculo-skeletal system.
This will result in proper nerve to muscle firing and improvements in overall muscle control/strength and body mobility. There will also be a huge focus on building up and evolving specific movements/activities that directly correlate with your specific goals. This will promote self-efficacy, removing the fear of pain and flare-ups, allowing you to be confident in your own body.
Chiropractic Care
The chiropractic care is focused on working with the alignment of the entire body creating balance and symmetry. This is achieved by removing distortion patterns that add tension or compression to various nerves, joints and muscles. The chiropractic treatments will release adhesions and fibrosis in joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments and fascia through:
- Chiropractic Adjustments
- Joint Mobilizations
- Spinal Decompression
- Craniosacral Therapy
- Manual Muscle Release
- Instrument-Assisted Fascial Release
- Cupping Therapy
When the body is in its natural and optimal alignment: pressure/force is distributed evenly throughout the joints, muscles/tendons/ligaments are at their proper length, and nerves have enough space to travel freely through the body. Restoring proper joint motion is crucial not only for alignment and smooth movement, but so that the muscles can more easily return to their normal function instead of needing to compensate or overwork to create motion and stability.
Psychotherapy
Psychotherapy comes into play with the mental component of chronic pain. Working with a psychotherapist will help you alleviate symptoms of stress, anxiety or depression which may be contributing to your pain. In unpacking the many layers that contribute to your pain, your therapist will work with you to cultivate a holistic healing mentally and physically.
When the internal thoughts and feelings related to pain have been unpacked and understood, the individual is able to quickly understand why their body is reacting in a certain way and act appropriately. The individual will also be able to utilize strategies to minimize symptoms that contribute to their pain such as anxious systems and be equipped with managing their emotions.

Chronic Pain Management Mississauga FAQs
Body Science Therapy stands out due to our holistic, multidisciplinary approach. Unlike traditional pain clinics that may focus on a single aspect of pain, we integrate multiple disciplines such as physiotherapy, chiropractic care, psychotherapy, and functional medicine into a cohesive treatment plan. This allows us to address not just the symptoms but the root causes of chronic pain, offering a more comprehensive and effective solution for our clients.
The timeline for seeing results can vary depending on the individual’s condition, the severity of their pain, and their overall health. However, many of our clients begin to experience noticeable improvements within a few weeks of starting their personalized Body Code Program. It’s important to remember that chronic pain management is a journey, and ongoing treatment may be necessary to achieve the best possible outcomes.
The Body Code Program is designed for individuals seeking a comprehensive, holistic approach to managing chronic pain. If you’ve found limited relief from traditional treatments, or if you’re looking for a solution that addresses the physical, mental, and metabolic aspects of pain, our program may be the right choice. We recommend scheduling a consultation with our team to discuss your specific needs and determine the best path forward for your pain management journey.
