What Sets Us Apart
Dr. Hargreaves is both a National Strength and Conditioning Association Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and a National Strength and Conditioning Association Certified Personal Trainer.
The knowledge derived from practicing these specialties and undergoing continuous continuing education enables Dr. Hargreaves to support and enhance chiropractic's spinal and extremity adjustments with appropriate and specific physical training methods. The physical training may require attention to developing strength, strength-endurance, coordination, mobility, etc. in consideration of the interconnected body.
In addition, due to the strong connection between falling and the onset of cognitive decline and cognitive decline and falling 1 Life Chiropractic acquired the FDA-cleared ProBalance360 cognition and balance training equipment.
How does "Proadjuster" work?
“FALLING”
Is an instant during which the individual does not recover from a stumble or trip with the stopping point being the surface beneath the faller.
One fall can turn the person’s life upside down, resulting in rapidly declining health, extended hospital stays, financial loss, fear, and isolation.
In addition to being a veteran chiropractor Dr. Hargreaves is also a Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist and Certified Personal Trainer compliments of the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Life’s strength of balance and cognition improvement technology trains users to develop the skills to avoid and/or limit the severity of a fall. Some of these physical-mental skills are feet, legs, and pelvic strength, balance recovery, reflex quickness, self-awareness, memory-vision and the bodily mobility required to stay physically and cognitively confident and independent.
The initial examination’s objective findings will highlight and demonstrate the person’s predisposition and propensity for the direction of a fall. This is a big and necessary piece of objective data which is incorporated into the one’s specific treatment plan procedures.
If not challenged, the user will not progress. Therefore the user will be challenged to progress every session with the results recorded at the time of performance.
During examinations, balance and reactive training, 100 objective data points per second are uploaded into the computer.

The patient’s prime goal may be to address general chronic or acute pain, spinal pain, headaches, numbness/tingling, better movement, improved sleep, enhanced athletic performance or to get their life back on track. Dr. Hargreaves would be happy to host an in-person or telephone consultation (does not include any examinations, adjustments, or advice of any kind) with an individual looking for some help.
Dr. Hargreaves’ Story
At an early age while growing up in Edmonton, Alberta, Dr. Hargreaves remembers walking down the street with his mom and dad on the way to the chiropractor where I would watch mom and dad get adjusted and at times his parents would ask for him to be adjusted.
His father was a retired Royal Canadian Airforce flight sergeant paratroops instructor and smokejumper. An accumulation of on-the-job physical injuries were “lit up” by a hard landing on hard ground in the forest.
“Dad regularly used chiropractic as the adjustments in his words ‘keep me going’ while mom regularly went as she perceived she was ‘overall healthier’ in her daily life because of the regular spinal adjustments.”
After moving to Vancouver, British Columbia Dr. Hargreaves’ year round athletics were baseball, soccer and hockey. His pitching arm was tended to by a chiropractor both when “needed” and for preventive purposes. After being adjusted “the ball always felt lighter when pitching.”
One day in British Columbia, his chiropractor asked “well, when are you going to actually do it and go to chiropractic school?” At that time, that question was exactly what was needed.
Dr. Hargreaves graduated from Palmer College of Chiropractic in September 1982 and started treating patients in British Columbia in 1983. He has been working at Life Chiropractic in Bellingham since August of 2008.
He and his spouse spend a significant amount of time on physical training with Dr. Hargreaves majoring in long distance running, sprinting, weight training (with significant time spent on the posterior muscular chain), balance enhancement to limit the chances of an injurious fall, mobility for dense connective tissues (fascia, cartilage, ligament, tendon, muscle) resiliency.
