Syd Dhillon D.C.
Chiropractor
During his training at Life Chiropractic College-West, Dr. Syd went above and beyond, immersing himself in specialized programs focused on delivering precise, comfortable adjustments, specializing in the Gonstead technique. This advanced training brings relief to patients who haven’t found success elsewhere.
Dr. Syd’s philosophy is to diagnose and treat the patient and their underlying causes of their discomfort, not just their symptoms. He welcomes people from all walks of life, and no issue is too big or too small. Like many chiropractors, he chose this career path after experiencing the amazing benefits of chiropractic in helping him overcome a hockey injury that traditional medicine and physical therapy could not.
After graduating from Life Chiropractic College-West in Alameda, California, Dr. Syd returned to his hometown of Vancouver, B.C., Canada to start his first practice. In 2004 he relocated to Ventura, CA to be with his soon-to-be wife, Heather. Together they opened Pure Chiropractic in Ventura — where Heather managed the day-to-day operations — and watched it grow to become one of the region’s largest single-provider chiropractic clinics. Along the way, he and Heather welcomed 2 beautiful daughters, Emmi and Sofia. After almost 20 years of living and practicing on the West Coast, the family relocated to Charlotte, NC.
