Truro Chiropractic Clinic
Truro, Nova Scotia
Truro Chiropractic Clinic was founded by Dr. Joanna McGowan, who has been a practicing chiropractor for over 31 years. The clinic has offered a range of healthcare services at its current location, 18 Duke Street, for over 25 years. In addition to chiropractic care, the clinic provides laser therapy, massage therapy, acupuncture, and nutritional services. Many clients benefit from the variety of services available, and the healthcare professionals at Truro Chiropractic Clinic advocate for a collaborative approach when appropriate.
The team at Truro Chiropractic Clinic is dedicated to treating every individual with the highest level of care and respect. Their goal is to create a welcoming environment where you can access the comprehensive services you need for optimal health.
When asked what she is most proud of at Truro Chiropractic Clinic, Dr. Joanna McGowan said, “I’m extremely proud of the extensive experience of our clinicians. We have between 13 and 31 years of experience each, totaling 101 clinical years among our five clinicians. Additionally, our front desk team brings another 75 years of customer service experience. You don’t stay in healthcare this long without a genuine love for the work and a sincere desire to help people.” Their dedication and passion for their profession are evident in the care they provide to each patient.
Joanna’s journey into entrepreneurship began with a dream to continue the legacy of a retiring practitioner. She succeeded Dr. Terrance Hanrahan, a respected chiropractor with over 40 years of experience. Joanna not only retained Dr. Hanrahan’s loyal patients but also expanded the clinic’s reach, attracting many new patients.
Since then, the demand for chiropractic services has significantly increased. Joanna was the 25th chiropractor in Nova Scotia in 1993; today, the province has over 200 chiropractors, reflecting the growing recognition of the benefits of chiropractic care.
Running her own business has been both challenging and rewarding for Joanna. She values the flexibility of setting her own hours, despite the inevitable hurdles of entrepreneurship. Joanna reflects, “Your education provides the basics, but confidence develops with time.” She advises aspiring healthcare business owners to regularly connect with fellow practitioners and to seek advice from mentors and colleagues without hesitation.
