Dr. Scott Brayall is a Doctor of Chiropractic based in Fredericton, New Brunswick, with nine years of clinical experience treating musculoskeletal and neurological conditions. He founded the VAC chiropractic assessment service at vacchiropractor.ca with a single purpose: to provide Canadian veterans with the clinical documentation and treatment they need to navigate the Veterans Affairs Canada disability process — and to get the outcomes they have earned.
Education & Training
Dr. Brayall completed a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology at the University of New Brunswick (2010–2014), followed by his Doctor of Chiropractic degree at New York Chiropractic College, graduating in 2017. He has since built a practice grounded in evidence-based, low-force chiropractic techniques particularly well-suited to patients with chronic pain, complex histories, and post-trauma presentations.
His clinical training includes:
- Activator Method: A precision, instrument-assisted adjusting technique that delivers low-force, targeted corrections to the spine and extremities — effective for patients who benefit from a gentler approach.
- Arthrostim: A high-frequency, low-amplitude instrument that mobilizes spinal joints without the force of traditional manual manipulation — particularly valuable for acute, post-concussion, and chronic pain patients.
- Chiropractic BioPhysics (CBP): Advanced postural and structural analysis training focused on identifying and correcting the biomechanical root causes of spinal dysfunction.
- Functional neurological assessment: Evaluation of vestibular, cerebellar, and oculomotor function, informed by Carrick-based neurology principles — applied in the assessment and management of mTBI and post-concussion syndrome.
Why Veterans?
Dr. Brayall is not a veteran. But after years of working with Canadian veterans in clinical practice, he became increasingly aware of a frustrating reality: the VAC disability system is technically complex, documentation-heavy, and — for many veterans — genuinely difficult to navigate without the right medical support. Too many legitimate claims are denied or stalled not because the injury isn’t real, but because the clinical evidence isn’t presented in the format or language that VAC adjudicators require.
That gap — between what a veteran has experienced and what gets recognized by the system — is exactly where Dr. Brayall focuses. He has invested in understanding the Veterans Well-being Act, the Entitlement Eligibility Guidelines, and the Table of Disabilities not because he had to, but because it allows him to be genuinely useful to the people sitting across from him in the exam room.
Veterans deserve a healthcare provider who knows the process, does the work, and writes reports that hold up.
Clinical Practice
Dr. Brayall practices out of Fredericton Family Chiropractic, a full-service chiropractic clinic serving Fredericton, Oromocto, and the surrounding region of New Brunswick. In addition to VAC disability assessments and medical-legal reporting, he provides ongoing chiropractic care for a wide range of musculoskeletal conditions — with a particular focus on spinal dysfunction, chronic pain, and neurological conditions that respond well to low-force chiropractic intervention.
