Meet Dr. Tony Gareau

A Calgary chiropractor helping people move better, recover more effectively, and stay connected to long-term health through nervous system-focused care.

Chiropractic Care That Goes Beyond Just Pain Relief

Hi, I'm Dr. Tony Gareau.


I created Pursuit of Health to offer a different kind of chiropractic experience, one that looks beyond pain alone and focuses on how your body is functioning as a whole.


My goal is to help people better understand their bodies, move with more confidence, recover more effectively, and build health in a way that feels sustainable for real life.


Whether you are coming in because of pain, tension, stress, mobility issues, or simply because you want to stay active and functioning well, care is always centered around the bigger picture of your health.

My Approach to Chiropractic Care

I believe pain is often just one part of the story.


The body is constantly adapting to stress, movement, posture, and the demands of everyday life. When that adaptability is compromised, pain or tension is often what brings people in.


At Pursuit of Health, care is focused on understanding how your body is functioning as a whole, not just where something hurts.


Using a nervous system-centred approach, the goal is to improve how your body communicates, coordinates, and responds so you can:


Move More Freely

Recover More Efficiently

Handle Stress More Effectively

Stay Active and Resilient Over Time

Health, to me, isn't just about eliminating symptoms. It's about building a body that can adapt, respond, and function well in the real world.

My Story

My path into chiropractic started through my own experience as an athlete. 


Growing up, I played high-level hockey, including Junior 'A' with the Calgary Canucks and later with the University of Lethbridge. After a hockey injury led to ongoing back pain, I found myself looking for answers, and it was through chiropractic care that things finally started to make sense in a different way.


It showed me that pain is often only part of the story, and that when the body is supported in the right way, it has an incredible ability to adapt, recover, and function better. 


That experience changed how I understood health and ultimately led me into this profession. 


 

Background & Experience                  

 

Dr. Tony Gareau has been in practice since 1998, building a career that blends both sports performance and family chiropractic.


Over the years, he has worked with athletes across a variety of sports and served as the healthcare provider for Ski Jump Canada, attending the 2014 and 2018 Winter Olympic Games.


He is also certified in Trigger Point Dry Needling and as a Worker's Compensation Board Provider.


That experience continues to shape the way he practices today, helping people move better, recover more effectively, and function well for the long term.

Who I work with

I work with a wide range of people in Calgary, including:


  • Active adults looking to stay mobile, strong, and pain-free
  • Busy professionals dealing with tension, posture strain, and stress.
  • Parents and families looking for supportive, long-term care
  • People with recurring pain who are ready for a more comprehensive approach


Whether your goal is to get out of pain, move more confidently, or support your long-term health, care is tailored to your body, your goals, and your lifestyle.


 

What You Can Expect at Pursuit of Health Chiropractic

I want patients to feel informed, comfortable, and clear about their care.

That means your visits are designed to feel:

You should understand what we are doing and why.

Your care should reflect your body, your history, and your goals.

Recommendations should make sense for your life.

My goal is to create a space where people feel listened to, supported, and confident in the direction of their care.

Why 'Pursuit of Health'?

The name Pursuit of Health reflects the idea that health is not something we "arrive at" once and keep forever.


It is something we build, maintain, and return to through the choices we make, the way we care for ourselves and our children, and how well our bodies adapt to life.


That's the lens I bring to care.


Rather than only chasing short-term relief, I want to help families create a stronger foundation for long-term well-being. One that supports how they move, recover, function, and live.
