Daily activities can strain your musculoskeletal system, causing injuries and body pain.
Activities such as chores, sports, and work can bring about conditions that may progress to chronic pain. A chiropractor is trained in treating, managing, and preventing pain originating from the nervous system, muscles, and spine.
Dr. Tamra Daye gained her doctorate in chiropractic in 1999 from Life Chiropractic College in Atlanta, Georgia, after graduating in Manitoba with a Bachelor of Science degree. She worked in Virginia for several years and later returned to Winnipeg, her hometown.
She became a certified acupuncture provider after completing the program with Acupuncture Canada and opened her first clinic in 2008 in Kenaston Common. She has now opened her second clinic in the Charleswood area.
Dr. Daye believes that proper movement is the key to living an active and healthy lifestyle. Her goal is to help her patients live their best lives by diagnosing any underlying cause through a comprehensive examination and administering treatment that effectively targets the cause of their pain.
Chiropractors receive high-skilled training in spinal manipulative therapy (SMT) to provide precise and skilled movement to the spine to adjust and correct the motion of the joints. This enables them to improve the function of the joints and restore complete movement without pain.
They also use other gentle techniques that differ from the process of joint adjustment, which causes a popping sound similar to your knuckles cracking and may be uncomfortable to some patients. This alternate process uses an instrument adjustment tool called an Activator that is highly effective, safe, and comfortable.
Dr. Daye and her team use several techniques, such as
- Muscle release techniques
- Thompson drop table technique
- Gentle low-force instrument adjusting
- Trigger point therapy
- Medical acupuncture
- Progressive rehabilitation programs
Daye Chiropractic clinic attends to patients of any age.

Acupuncture at Daye Chiropractic Clinic
Acupuncture is recommended for people suffering from tissue and muscle pain that may not easily be treated with chiropractic or people who cannot handle a certain amount of pressure on their bodies.
It is an ancient alternative to medication that is very effective and safe. Acupuncture involves stimulating the body’s pain-relieving hormones, known as endorphins, by inserting needles into specific points on your body to promote healing naturally.
Some benefits of acupuncture are:
- Increaseed body function
- Increased range of motion
- Decreased pain
- Decreased Stiffness
The needles used during acupuncture have rounded tips that go through tissue smoothly. The needles are the thickness of a hair which makes insertion very comfortable. Needles may stay in place for 15 to 30 minutes, and the acupuncturist may even move the needles to stimulate the flow of Qi.
In ancient Chinese medicine, the flow and balance of Qi energy were necessary for good health. The balance of Qi achieved in acupuncture is known as homeostasis.
