Dr. MacInnes is actively involved in the community, as well as participant locally in CrossFit, martial arts, road cycling and mountain biking.  Dr. MacInnes is also an active member of the College of Chiropractic Sports Sciences (Canada).

His involvement in sports began with a successful career in downhill ski racing internationally at the BC Ski Team level.  He also competed in mountain biking and Tae Kwon Do.  Dr. MacInnes has been practicing martial arts for 15 years and now holds a 2nd degree black belt in Tae kwon Do.  He currently trains in Mixed Martial Arts and Jeet Kune Do.  He also works as the official chiropractor of the SFU Varsity teams – including football, soccer, track, basketball, wrestling, and softball.  He has also been a part of a team of Chiropractors treating the BC Lions CFL Football team, and has been the chiropractor for numerous world-title holders in K-1 and kick-boxing, and many up and coming mixed martial artists and Kick-Boxers.

He holds a full body certification in ART© (Active Release Techniques) and utilizes a variety of Chiropractic techniques to suit an individual's needs.  This includes Diversified, Thompson, Flexion-Distraction, SOT, and Motion Palpation chiropractic techniques.  Dr. MacInnes focuses on full body biomechanics and dynamic function, and investigates the relation of various tissues – skeletal, muscular, nervous, or connective – to each other.  The functional movements of these tissues are his greatest concern, and maximum performance and co-ordination of these systems, in his opinion, is vital to optimum health and maximum quality of life of an individual.  

Having 4 kids of his own, he has an additional interest in treating pregnant women and young children.  He also has a certification in the “Webster” technique – a technique that can very successfully release tension in the uterus of a pregnant woman – also very useful in a healthy delivery.  He loves treating kids and introducing them to a healthy lifestyle.

Currently, in his spare time, he enjoys activities with his children, and enjoys continuing his martial arts training, road cycling, downhill mountain-biking, surfing golfing, and skiing.  He also enjoys going to the movies, and spending time with his wonderful wife, Lindsey.
