Meet Dr. Holly Hochstadt

Dr. Holly Hochstadt is a vitalistic chiropractor. She recognizes that the human body has an innate ability to heal itself, and that chiropractic care helps remove interference to our inborn healing
capacity, allowing for a fuller expression of health and vitality. She believes that health includes our physical, chemical, emotional, social, mental (and even spiritual) well-being.
She graduated from Western States Chiropractic College in Portland, Oregon in 1995 with a Doctor of Chiropractic degree and has been practicing chiropractic ever since. She was in
Seattle for 24 years, then relocated to Lethbridge, AB in 2019 when the opportunity arose to return to Canada. She is delighted to be returning to the West Coast.

Dr. Holly offers a range of chiropractic adjusting approaches, including traditional manual chiropractic, drop table, gentle instrument, and gentle tonal style chiropractic adjusting. She provides chiropractic care to women throughout the perinatal experience, as well as to newborns and children of all ages. She is also certified in the Webster Technique to support pregnant people throughout their pregnancy. Dr. Holly has studied and practiced Bio-Geometric Integration (BGI) since 2000, and also spent several years studying Network Spinal Analysis (NSA). These tonal styles of chiropractic involve assessing how the body is storing tension, and facilitate the body processing and unwinding stored tension, and may also include gentle traditional adjusting. Her goal is always to find the best method for you, to assist you in healing and expressing more of your full potential in your life and in the world.
Dr. Holly’s philosophy of care is to address the root cause of your health concerns, rather than just treating symptoms. In pursuing overall wellness she may sometimes include nutrition or other lifestyle recommendations, as she recognizes that while healing happens largely from the inside-out, it is also affected by outside-in factors. D. Holly is a firm believer in the power of education and in empowering her patients to take an active role in their own health and wellness, and provides educational resources and support to help her patients on their path. She also teaches gentle fascial release techniques which give her patients more tools to support their body’s parasympathetic (grounding/healing) function, and may allow them to experience improved overall health and well-being. Dr. Holly is committed to providing personalized and compassionate care to every patient.

Dr. Holly works to create a treatment plan that fits each person’s specific needs and goals. She values integrity, compassion, connection, community, health/wholeness, gratitude, and caring for each patient like a beloved family member.

She looks forward to supporting the people of the Cowichan Valley community on the path of greater health and wellness!
