Who am I, what is my origin story?
So…twenty odd years ago, I’m driving with my parents through the Fraser Valley in BC, trying desperately to figure out what to do with my life. My wife and I had split up, which was good for both of us.
We were in trouble before she was diagnosed with breast cancer but were able to stay together through her chemo and subsequent 2-year recovery, both of us had tried very hard but it was not to be. Her cancer had about a 75% chance of recurrence, and in my early 30’s I had recently finished my commerce degree but was not in a position financially to look after my family…the love of my life, my daughter Zoey.
Something had to give. I needed a career change, something that would provide for my family and whatever that change was going to be, I was only going to get one shot at it if the cancer came back. It had to be the perfect choice. I had done a lot of work with career change books. There were a few career themes that were always present: I had to be of service, it had to be mentally stimulating, it would help if it was physical (get my hands on people to be of assistance), and a few others, but a common theme.
Over the course of my life, I had been a waiter, bartender, golf professional, always being of service, but lately I was utilizing my commerce degree working as a business analyst crunching numbers, so boring! Just not fulfilling. All career analysis had shown me, ironically given the career choices so far, that I had 4 options: waiter, bartender, teacher, or medical profession.
In my head I thought that everything was pointing to becoming a physiotherapist. However, at that time, I had never met a physio who was really fulfilled – although I have since. It was not an option to go back to school for at least another 2+ years to ultimately become a dissatisfied therapist.
As I told my parents this, driving through the Fraser Valley on a gorgeous sunny day, my dad turned to me and said, “Why don’t you be a CHIROPRACTOR?”. And the world literally stopped.
Everything. Stopped. I can remember the trees in the background, the outline of the mountains, the carpet in the vehicle. I got covered in an ice-cold electric syrup and a voice in my soul said to me, in language I could hear, “THIS IS WHAT YOU WERE BORN TO DO.”
And here we are 16 years later. Once I was aware of my life’s purpose in this way, nothing was going to stop me. Nothing was too big or too small to get here. I was a man possessed, and the rest is history.
Through the years the chiropractic approach has evolved. Everything now revolves around a very basic tenant: you have a design; the body has a design. Our DNA hasn’t changed in over 20000 years (.01%), and people who live congruently with the design have astronomically better health outcomes than those of us who don’t.
In a profound way, the musculoskeletal aspect of the body’s design/structure is what everything else depends on. My greatest passion in life, is assisting this structure back to its original design, helping you out of your pain, off any meds if possible and getting you back to the highest quality of life. The entire team works around this principle: assist the structure back to its original design, help resolve the years of accumulated soft tissue and life stresses, utilize our unique approach, and get you back doing everything you love to do in life.
I look forward to meeting you and seeing what we can accomplish for your health, for your family, for your quality of life, for your love of life, for everything you are here to achieve, as pain-free as all of us can help you get back to. Welcome to our office!
Yours Truly,
Dr. Greg Driedger
