063: Dr. Robert Champagne: Chiropractic Mafioso Giving the Gift of Chiropractic to the World

Dr. Robert Champagne was born and raised in Winnipeg, Manitoba. He graduated summa cum laude from Life Chiropractic College, Atlanta, Georgia in 1980. He then returned home to Winnipeg where he opened his first chiropractic office. For eighteen years, he ran one of the busiest family-oriented chiropractic practices in Manitoba. 

In 1998, being an avid skier, mountain biker, hiker and overall outdoor enthusiast, he decided to follow his dream and move closer to the mountains with his wife and their five children. Dr. Champagne opened Douglasdale Family Chiropractic Centre in Calgary, Alberta, which he sold in January, 2008. This allowed him to devote more time to expanding the walls of his office to other continents, by co-founding Chiropractic for the World Foundation. In 2012, they moved to Fernie, BC, the perfect Rocky Mountain town to blend work and play! 

In February, 2009, Chiropractic for the World Foundation received registered Canadian charitable status. Since then, CFTWF has been actively working to engage chiropractors to work in cooptition, expanding the availability of chiropractic worldwide, while being congruent with their chiropractic values and principles.

Dr. Robert has had many opportunities to speak about chiropractic and CFTWF. Some of the venues include Epoc groups, Dynamic Essential (DE), Alberta, BC and Manitoba provincial associations, Edmonton Chiropractic Society and Pure and Powerful Seminar.
