Dr. Gordon Hasick
Dr. Gordon Hasick has a diverse background in clinical chiropractic care, education, and television production with a focus on human development and enhanced wellness.
He began his private chiropractic practice in Calgary in 1980, and has been a board certified instructor for the National Upper Cervical Chiropractic Association since 1989. He also served as Chief Chiropractic Officer for the 1988 Olympic Winter Games in Calgary as well as Team Chiropractor for Team Canada Men’s Volleyball Team.
As a chiropractor, his experience has been that the most beneficial approach in helping people create good health is to educate them not only about their physical health, but to also look at wellness from a holistic perspective. He believes the human journey offers a wide variety of opportunities that call us to adapt and change in order to maintain a healthy balance of inner peace, joy and fulfillment.
With that in mind, in 1993 Dr. Hasick established C-1 Film Production Corporation®, a company that uses the creative media of live workshops, television, video and audio programs to communicate wellness information. C-1 Films® distributes programs about hope and healing, and produces projects featuring success stories from those who have overcome significant challenges and have been able to thrive.
Dr. Hasick has also been a part of the faculty of Leadership Development at the Banff Centre since 2004 where he is part of a team that facilitates programs designed to build personal leadership with visions for an ideal and healthy future.
