Nykaila Wheeler
Chiropractor
Dr. Nykaila was born and raised in Penticton, BC, where a love for sports and the outdoors shaped her upbringing. She excelled in volleyball, basketball, and fastpitch during her formative years, complemented by winters spent snowboarding at Apex.
Her schooling took her to the University of Calgary, where she studied Kinesiology, delving deep into the study of the human body through movement. During this time she developed an appreciation for the human body and the potential it contains. Seeking to expand her expertise, she earned a chiropractic degree from the New Zealand College of Chiropractic, specializing in techniques such as Diversified, Gonstead, Upper Cervical Specific, Activator, and Thompson.
In 2023, Dr. Nykaila gained valuable experience practicing in Brisbane, Australia, before returning to the Okanagan. She is committed to serving the local community, offering specialized care to individuals of all ages and backgrounds. Additional training in Sacro-Occipital Technique and through the International Federation of Sports Chiropractic reflects her dedication to providing comprehensive healthcare solutions.
Dr. Nykaila is passionate about helping every individual achieve their optimal health potential, whether they are expecting mothers, children, parents, athletes, weekend warriors, or those just looking to maintain their health and wellness. Outside of the office you can find Nykaila playing slo-pitch, paddleboarding, and snowboarding or spending time with her fiancée and their beloved dog, Winky.
Dr. Nykaila looks forward to partnering with you on your health journey, providing personalized care to enhance your well-being and vitality.
