Maryam Nik

Dr. Maryam Nik is the owner and clinic director of Active-Med Health and Wellness Centre. In 2002, she graduated from University of Toronto with a bachelor degree in Neuroscience. She graduated from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College Magna Cum Laude in 2006.

Throughout her internship of her chiropractic program Dr. Nik worked at Bioped Foot Care Clinics assessing patients with biomechanical conditions in their feet, recommending treatment protocols to address these abnormalities. It was then when she completed the required hours to obtain her C.Ped Tech certification, which allowed her to make custom-made orthotics, and modified orthopedic shoes in the on-site lab.

Soon after graduating from CMCC, Dr. Nik started building her wellness practice in Oak Ridges while working in a chronic pain clinic assessing and treating patients who had sustained injuries in sports, accidents, falls and work related repetitive sprain/strains. Dr. Nik has spent the last 16 years of her professional career focusing on physical rehabilitation and strength and conditioning to help her patients reach faster recovery and prevent further injury in the compensatory structures later in life. Dr. Nik believes in the importance of preventative care and the multi-disciplinary approach to healthcare specifically musculo-skeletal conditions.

Dr. Nik’s focus is to assist her patients and their families to achieve the fastest recovery from injuries to prevent chronic pain and to help them maintain a high quality of life through incorporating permanent healthy life style changes.

Dr. Nik believes that continued education and staying up to date with the relevant research is necessary for providing the best and top of the line service to her patients and that is the reason she dedicates a lot of her time to learn new techniques and protocols. Dr. Nik is full body Active Release Technique certified and continues to invest more time to learn each day by attending new seminars. She is a certified shift concussion provider 1 and certified completed concussion management practitioner through the Complete Concussion Management (CCMI) network. She is also currently an ISAEC advance practice provider at the low back pain rapid access clinic through Trillium Health Partners empowering patients to better manage their low back pain. Dr. Nik is constantly expanding her knowledge base to ensure her patients receive the highest quality of care.
