Thrive Chiropractic & Wellness
Yes, we are open! Dr. Lingard and Maggie McFarlane are looking forward to seeing you and helping you reduce your pain, stress and increase your quality of life. We understand life is a bit more challenging right now and we appreciate you choosing us to help you navigate this new normal. Please rest assured that we have implemented government-mandated protocols to keep you and your family safe.

In order to meet our commitment to patient safety, we have changed our booking procedures to include pre-screening questions and staggered appointments to help ensure physical distancing is maintained in our clinic. We are asking patients to help us maintain a healthy and safe environment in our clinic by answering pre-screening questions truthfully and following the new procedures in the clinic.
Services
Dr. Katie Lingard graduated from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto, after completing an Honours Bachelor of Kinesiology and certification in Contemporary Medical Acupuncture from McMaster University. Dr. Lingard relocated from Toronto in 2013 where she ran a family-based practice for four years.
At Thrive Chiropractic & Wellness we are committed to offering you quality care to meet your health and recovery goals. From babies to the elderly, professional athletes to busy moms, we understand the value of developing and maintaining a healthy spine and nervous system to keep you functioning at your very best!
Chiropractors are neuromusculoskeletal specialist. They work directly with the nerves, muscles and joints of the body to keep everything in line and functioning freely. It is a safe, natural and effective form of health care. The goal of chiropractic care is to gradually improve and restore the function of the spine, improving motion and thus improving nervous system function, spinal function and overall health.
Massage aims to relax and stimulate the body's soft tissue by using specific techniques to promote or restore health. Regardless of your age - massage is beneficial for all. Our Massage Therapist sees everyone - from newborns to seniors. Research has shown the many positive benefits that massage has on our health and well-being.
A custom orthotic is a device designed to align the foot and ankle into the most anatomically efficient position. They look like insoles, but are biomechanical medical appliances that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalance. Custom orthotics work on your feet much like glasses work on your eyes - they reduce stress and strain on your body by bringing your feet back into proper alignment.

The ladies that run Thrive are amazing. I came there with a failed pelvis after birth and Katie and Maggie fixed me up. I couldn't walk without pain and within a month I was feeling more like my own self.
My infant daughter Ember was also treated at Thrive as she favored one side, with chiro and massage she began to turn her head properly! She is… now a happy and healthy 4 month old.
Katie and Maggie are amazing and their receptionist Kate is such a wonderful and helpful person. I'm grateful I went here and look forward to going back when I can.

This is seriously such a wonderful place! I’m able to bring my (crazy and loud) kids and they are so good about having them play in the kids area when I’m getting adjusted! It’s a welcoming atmosphere and everyone there is the bomb! Katie is so knowledgeable and takes the time to actually listen to your concerns and where your pain is. Also, their music playlist is SO GOOD!

Great service at Thrive Chiropractic & Wellness, I go for Chiro and acupuncture with Dr. Katie and Massage therapy with Maggie, both of whom are lovely and extremely proficient at their jobs. Online booking & direct billing are awesome and they both keep good hours to fit flexible schedules.

Best in Airdrie! Before Thrive opened, I was a patient of both Katie and Maggie at their prior work location. The quality of their services provided is amazing! Always incredible customer service at the front as well.

Thrive is a welcoming and comfortable space. I went for a massage with Maggie, and had a great experience. She's skilled, professional, and able to cater your massage to meet your exact needs. Highly recommend Thrive if you're in need of massage or chiropractic care in Airdrie!

My children and I have been seeing Dr. Katie since 2013 and I cannot recommend her enough. Her genuine passion for helping people is immediately apparent in her assessment, treatment and overall practice. She takes the time to listen to your concerns, explains everything in terms that are accessible and approachable, and treats patients as whole people, rather than just looking at isolated injuries/complaints. Dr. Katie's thoughtful, compassionate, and holistic approach to caring for her patients is what sets her apart from most chiropractors and why so many folks see such incredible results after

Katie Lingard is amazing! She is the only chiropractor I trust to adjust me (I've been adjusted by a few). She knows what she is doing and actually cares about her patients. My whole family goes to Katie including my 6 month baby boy!

Dr. Lingard is amazing and has helped my family and myself so much! She truly cares about her patients well being both physically and personally as well, she always takes time to see how things are going in her patients lives. I would not and do not hesitate to recommend Dr. Lingard and Thrive to anyone who requires a chiropractor.

My husband and I have been going to see the team at thrive for a while and when our baby girl was having digestive issues and reflux we started taking her as well to see Dr. Lingard. Maggie was able to teach me baby massage techniques to help with her stomach issues. The team is always so friendly and very knowledgeable, we always look forward to seeing them.
