Welcome to Big Idea Family Chiropractic

Big Idea Family Chiropractic is located at Unit 5, 8720 Macleod Trail SE, Calgary, and has been serving families, active adults, and athletes in the SW Calgary area since 2022. Dr. Joitescu and his team take a thorough, relationship-based approach to care: finding the root cause of a problem rather than treating the symptom in isolation, and making sure every patient understands what is happening in their body and why.

OUR SERVICES

Why Patients Choose Big Idea

Palmer-trained from the source of chiropractic: Dr. Joitescu completed his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at Palmer College in Davenport, Iowa, the founding institution of chiropractic education. His training is grounded in the original philosophy of chiropractic care: that the nervous system, properly supported, drives the body's ability to heal itself.

Gonstead technique: Big Idea is one of a small number of Calgary clinics where Gonstead chiropractic technique is a primary approach. Gonstead involves a precise, full-spine analysis and targeted adjustment method that is notably specific compared to general chiropractic care.

Multi-discipline care under one roof: Chiropractic, Custom Orthotics, Massage Therapy, Extremity Adjusting, Spinal DecompressionShockwave and Acupuncture are all available at Big Idea, making it easier to coordinate care when more than one approach is needed.

Direct billing available: Big Idea offers direct billing to most major extended health benefit plans, covering chiropractic, massage therapy, orthotics, and acupuncture services.
