About The Healthy Grandpa

Helping you prepare for and maintain a healthier longevity

I was born in October of 1954 and retired from providing chiropractic care in October of 2024, after 41 years of service and at the age of 70. I am the author of two books, one of which was a Canadian best-seller.

I love adventures, especially with family; in 1997, my wife Gaye and I, along with our 6 children, Tanya, Ben, Dayna, Karina, Jake and Whitney, aged three to twelve at that time, drove down to the bottom of South America from Ottawa, Canada, and came back three and a half years later. I helped introduce chiropractic to thousands of people in Peru, Chile and Brazil during our family adventure.

In 2011, the family ran across Canada and the United States in relay fashion, completing over 15,000 kilometres (around 10,000 miles) in 7 months and setting a record, being the first family of this size to run across 2 countries. Our mission was to inspire as many people as possible to take responsibility for their wellbeing and help create a wellness revolution. 

My passion is to help people from all age groups maintain a higher level of health and to share strategies of improved performance and longevity

Since graduating from Chiropractic College in 1983 I've always strived to help as many people as possible and of all ages to achieve better health and I’m now on a mission to help even more people take their lives to new heights with The Healthy Grandpa.”

Imagine taking your family of six children, aged three to twelve, and driving in a van from Canada to the bottom of South America and back, over a three-and-a-half year period.

This adventure allowed us to learn so much about family dynamics and helped us create a strong positive bond that will last for the rest of our lives. We documented every aspect of this experience and you too can benefit as we share the lessons we learned.

Marathon of Health

Our family ran across Canada and the United States in 2011 to raise awareness about health. Imagine again the idea of running as a family, in relay fashion across Canada and the United States, from the Pacific to the Atlantic and back to the Pacific, over 15,000 kilometers or 10,000 miles, for a period of 7 months, to raise awareness about wellness.

Another family adventure that allowed us to work together as a family, with common goals and a plan of action, to raise awareness about wellness and inspire people of all ages to take action and assume responsibility for their own well-being.

  • “Now that I'm in my seventies I feel as good as when I was in my fifties. The only difference is that I don`t run as fast now. Getting old does not have to be synonymous with pain and disease. My goal is to help others live as long as possible, while at the same time feel as young as possible.
