Dr. Thomas Johnson

Dr. Thomas Johnson gained an interest in chiropractic care after injuries from sport led him to a chiropractor for treatment. Growing up, Tom enjoyed many sports and as a teen focused solely on motocross racing, where he competed at a national level. He continued his love of sport while attending the University of Regina. There, he was a national competitor in powerlifting. Once he completed his Bachelor of Kinesiology with a major in human kinetics, he was off to Toronto to the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College.

During his time in Toronto, Tom met his wife Willow, who was attending the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine. Post-graduation the couple decided to settle down in Saskatoon and build their practices. Dr. Thomas Johnson chose to join the Lead Team because of Lead’s integrated approach coupled with movement-based solutions.

As a chiropractor, Dr. Tom creates and teaches movement. This ranges from improving a patient’s ability to walk up and down stairs, to an athlete’s ability to maximize sport performance. The ability to aid patients in achieving their rehab or performance goals, provides a significant sense of fulfillment for Dr. Tom.
