Dr. Jason is a 2002 graduate of Northwestern College of Chiropractic. He graduated as Valedictorian and was chosen as the class speaker. He opened his first practice in Roseville, Minnesota before relocating to Edmonton in the spring of 2004. He has been in practice for over 20 years and plans to continue serving his community for as long as he is breathing and living on this earth. When not in the office, he enjoys spending time with his family, exercising and living an active lifestyle while taking time to be in nature and explore the outdoors.

As a chiropractic student, Dr. Jason was first introduced to the Principles of Chiropractic and the concept that Life flows from ADIO via a Dr. James Sigafoose cassette tape. As he listened to the stories that Dr. Sigafoose shared, a passion was lit from within to share the chiropractic story and to see millions of lives changed by setting people free of nerve interference through chiropractic adjustments.

As a student and during his early years in practice, Dr. Jason found studying chiropractic techniques fascinating and strived to master techniques he found to provide the most specific corrective care possible. Over the past decade, he has developed his own unique adjusting technique (T.I.C. - Tonal Integrative Correction) that has proven to be specific, safe and gentle for all ages. This technique in conjunction with his sincere demeanor and compassion for serving people has helped him grow one of the largest referral-based offices worldwide.

Kenneth H. Cooper, MD, MPH

Cooper Aerobics, Founder and Chairman

Cooper Clinic, Preventive Medicine Physician

Kenneth H. Cooper, MD, MPH, preventive medicine pioneer and “father of aerobics,” introduced the concept of exercising in pursuit of good health when he launched the worldwide phenomenon of Aerobics, in 1968 — his first of 19 books on health and fitness. His latest book, Start Strong, Finish Strong, is a collaboration with his son, Tyler Cooper, MD, MPH.

During Dr. Cooper’s 13 years of service in the U.S. Army and U.S. Air Force, he served as a flight surgeon and director of the Aerospace Medical Laboratory in San Antonio. He dreamed of becoming an astronaut and worked with the National Aeronautics Space Administration to help create the conditioning program preparing America’s astronauts for space and the in-flight anti-deconditioning program used to keep astronauts active while onboard spacecraft.

He also developed the 12-minute and 1.5-mile fitness tests and the Aerobics Point System. Having coined the term “aerobics” in 1968, his definition was added to the Oxford English Dictionary in 1986. In 2002, he collaborated with PepsiCo to eliminate trans fats from its Frito-Lay snack line.

Over the past 50 years, Dr. Cooper has proven fitness is a vital sign through research preventive medicine, and wellness services. He remains dedicated to improving the quality and quantity of people’s lives.

Today Dr. Cooper is the founder and chairman of CooperAerobics Center in Dallas, the home of six health and wellness companies and a non-profit research center called The Cooper Institute. At 92 years of age, his current focus – in addition to seeing patients weekly –is working to help reverse the childhood obesity epidemic in schools and prevent COVID-19 with increased levels of vitamin D.

Dr. Cooper received his bachelor of science and medical degrees from the University of Oklahoma and a Master of public health degree from Harvard School of Public Health. He is board-certified in preventive medicine.
