About Jason Ahlan
Dr. Jason Ahlan is one of the founders of Paradigm Health Group. Gaining from the experience he got from working at the Integrative Medicine Institute of Canada, the Canadian Institute of Natural and Integrative Medicine (CINIM) and the Consortium of Academic Health Centres for Integrative Medicine, Paradigm was built upon the mutual benefit of “power in numbers”. Uniting a diverse team of doctors, nurses and nurse practitioner, Jason helped establish a Health Group where patients can benefit from a wide range of experience and backgrounds.
Jason’s love of athletics and outdoor activities has led to a passion in sports medicine and pain management. Working closely with everyone from recreational to Olympic athletes, human performance and chronic pain are his focuses. His integrative background has helped foster an understanding of how other professionals like medical doctors, chiropractors, physiotherapists and massage therapists can work together for the betterment of the patient.
