About Curavita
CURAVITA Health Group is a combination of two Clinics, each with a rich history and reputation. What was formerly known as the Glebe Chiropractic Clinic + Massage Therapy Centre, was established by Dr. Ken Brough in 1994, and his “sister clinic” to the Glebe, the Byward Chiropractic Clinic + Massage Therapy Centre, was established 2009.
In January, 2019, our Clinics began operating under a new brand name, the CURAVITA Health Group. In addition to the Chiropractic and Massage Therapy services we have offered since 1994, we also expanded our scope of services to include Physiotherapy. Our expanded, multi-disciplinary and collaborative healthcare model allows us to continue to provide the excellence in patient care and services we are known for, with more options for our patients to meet their health and wellness goals.
So why a new brand name? It was important to capture, on a larger scale, our collaborative and caring healthcare philosophy. Broken down, CURA means “care” in latin and VITA means “life.” This embodies our philosophy in one simple word. At CURAVITA, our care strategies encompass the spectrum from helping our patients get out of pain to overall wellness care. We provide care directed to enabling our patients to get more out of life, over the course of their life.
As a healthcare team, we are guided by our mission and lead with our core values in order to provide a true Community of Care to our patients. Our Mission is to provide evidence-informed care in a collaborative model in order to create an exceptional patient experience. We believe in treating one another and our patients in a manner that promotes trust, respect, integrity, ethics, communication, honesty, leadership and accountability. We also believe in the value of collaboration and professionalism amongst our healthcare team in order to empower our patients to take personal responsibility for their health and maintain a high level of health and wellness through natural means. We help people live healthier lives because we care.

Just as it is important to have a home with a strong foundation, your feet are the foundation of your entire body. If the foundation is weak the rest will suffer. Therefore it’s vital to give them the support they need to carry you. This is where custom foot orthotics come in. A doctor of chiropractic will work with you to determine if custom foot orthotics are the right fit for you.
