In 2012, he completed certification in Functional Cranial Release in Sarasota Florida to become one of the first Chiropractors in Canada to offer this unique endonasal balloon procedure to patients suffering from chronic ENT conditions and post concussion syndrome. In addition to his academic studies, Dr. John has a growing passion and interest in Eastern Philosophy such as Buddhism and Hindu teachings. For more than two decades, he has studied and practiced Vedanta and Contemplative practices and completed a six month intensive teacher training program as a Samadhi Meditation Teacher under the tutelage of Luang Phor Viriyang at the Willpower Institute. He has completed several in-depth lecture studies and readings from the teachings of Sri Ramakrishna and Swami Vivekananda as well as texts like The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali, Bhagavad Gita and Bhagavata Purana.

I have to mention something that is not being shared in these reviews: This doctor is doing a GREAT service to humanity through his wonderful and skillful hands. He has helped me enjoy life again! You don’t understand how bad chronic sinus pain and poor sleep can affect your life and mental state. This is the only thing that has helped me see lasting results. I won’t lie, it is an intensive feeling to have a balloon inside the nose but compared to the pain I was feeling for over 10 years and the effect it’s had on my mental health, it is SO worth it!!! And another thing, it’s not like the videos on YouTube or TikTok. This is much slower and deeper and I felt very precise. Things were popping and cracking in there I had no idea could move so much lol. It’s obvious he’s been doing this for some time. Dr John has an energy about him that is so amazing and so calming, he really goes out of his way to make sure you are comfortable through the whole process. Thank you Thank you Dr John for doing what you do. Humanity needs you!!
