About Dr. James Thompson:
Dr. James Thompson's journey in chiropractic service began in 1975 when he graduated from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in Toronto. He has operated a family wellness practice in Meaford Ontario since that time.
His approach to chiropractic service in terms of both philosophy and technique has been influenced by two giants of the chiropractic profession with whom he worked closely.
The first was Dr. J. Clay Thompson who developed a special type of adjusting able which made spinal correction easier on both the doctor and the patient. Clay Thompson also created a system of spinal analysis whereby by observing where in the human body misalignments of the spine were causing nervous system irritation the chiropractor could know how to correct the spine most efficiently.
The second influence was Dr. Larry Webster, who is said to be the grandfather of chiropractic pediatrics. James Thompson taught with Dr. Webster for many years and from him learned many special methods of adjusting baby's spines. During those years he also many children recover from seemingly impossible conditions.
Dr. Thompson is married with two children of his own and he cherishes the time he spends teaching other chiropractors as he serves as one of the teaching team for the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association
About Dr. Sarah Hogan:
Dr. Sarah Hogan is a 2013 graduate from Palmer College of Chiropractic in Davenport, Iowa.
While attending Dr. Thompson's ICPA module, she found a great mentor. Dr. Thompson has helped shape her to become the chiropractor she is today. Since then, Dr. Sarah and Dr. Thompson have worked side by side in practice in Ontario and in teaching together around the world.
As a team, they have also created, developed and launched the new SalutoMetric program, helping chiropractors confidently examine infants.
Personally she enjoys living an active and healthy lifestyle where fitness and healthy eating are high priorities for her.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
