Our story

Founded on a simple idea: treat the whole person.

Omega Health and Fitness was founded by chiropractors Dr. Ty Ashcroft and Dr. Thien Dang-Tan with a simple, slightly stubborn belief: clinical care and strength training shouldn’t live in separate buildings.

So we built a place where they don’t. A clinic and a training floor, under one roof, run by a team that talks to each other. Whether you arrive with a torn meniscus, a desk-bound back, a kid who wants to run faster, or a marathon goal — you get a coordinated plan from people who know what comes next.

Our logo represents three ideas: Recovery, Restoration, Resilience. Move through them in order. Stay there as long as you need.

Our pillars

Three words. One philosophy.

01

Recovery

Our chiropractors and physiotherapists identify the source of pain and dysfunction and start the body healing — not just chasing symptoms.

02

Restoration

Acupuncture, bodywork, and progressive loading restore tolerance and balance — getting you back to where you were pre-injury.

03

Resilience

Strength, mobility, and performance training so the next setback never quite lands the same way. We build bodies that hold up.

Founders

Meet the founders.

Co-founders Dr. Ty Ashcroft and Dr. Thien Dang-Tan built Omega around a simple belief: clinical care and strength training should live in the same room.

Dr. Vicko Ma

Chiropractor

Dr. Vicko Ma is a graduate of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. He received his Bachelor of Science with Specialization in Biology from Queen’s University. He was introduced to chiropractic after injuring his back while competing in high school volleyball. He was curious with how his injury happened and how to prevent future episodes so he can continue to compete.

His movement-based approach to treatment follows this curiosity by thoroughly assessing for the cause of your injury and integrate restorative movements, joint mobilizations, soft tissue therapy, medical acupuncture (McMaster University) to help you recover, and build strength and mobility to keep you injury-free. Dr. Ma strives for the highest quality of care for his patients with the goal of getting his patients back to doing what matters most to them.

Outside of the clinic, Dr. Ma’s interests include new tech, great coffee, and great food.
