Dr. Jeff Lustig, Chiropractor
Dr. Jeff Lustig started practice in 1982, in his hometown of Toronto. He attended Downsview Secondary, attained his Bachelor of Science from York University and graduated from Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College – Toronto (1982).
By 1988, he was open to making practice and lifestyle changes that were fulfilled by moving his family and practice to Peterborough. In the decades since, he has enjoyed watching Peterborough grow and evolve while making the most of the Kawarthas and the lifestyle our area has given his family.
Continuing education has involved thousands of hours of study and travel to stay on top of his skills and the latest developments in the profession. To support patient recovery from Sports Injuries and Motor Vehicle Accidents he enrolled in a series of courses leading to the distinction of becoming a Certified Chiropractic Rehabilitation Doctor (C.C.R.D.)
The current clinic location (401 McDonnell St) opened in 2005 to accommodate the addition of three BioFlex laser therapy Systems. The clinic was further expanded in 2018 to become the multi-disciplinary, multi-practitioner clinic it is today. Dr. Jeff and his growing team have a goal of offering as many natural health services and practice styles to meet the needs and schedules of area residents who want the care and services offered at Active Chiropractic & Wellness Centre.

Madison (Maddy) Meijer, Manual Osteopathic Practitioner
Madison’s educational journey in healthcare started at Ontario Tech University where she obtained a Bachelors of Science in Kinesiology, while competing as a varsity Lacrosse athlete. From there, she obtained a Masters of Osteopathic Manipulative Sciences over a four year, intensive program at the Canadian Academy of Osteopathy.
Through her studies in Osteopathic Therapy, she became passionate about exploring the relationship between structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) of the human body, and its capacity to self-heal and self-regulate! An Osteopathic Manual Practitioner uses the soft tissue structures to alleviate restriction of motion, which ultimately improves nerve communication, arterial venous, and lymphatic circulation. The goal of Osteopathic Treatment is to get to the root cause of your dis-ease.
