Founder & Clinic Director | Chiropractor | Integrated Health Visionary | HillStar Integrated Health, Grande Prairie

Dr. Adam Hillaby is the Founder and Clinic Director of HillStar Integrated Health—an innovative, multidisciplinary centre designed to elevate the standard of patient care in Northern Alberta. A highly accomplished chiropractor and visionary health leader, Dr. Hillaby has more than 18 years of global experience in collaborative, movement-based healthcare.

Born and raised in Grande Prairie, Dr. Hillaby began his academic journey with a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) from the University of Alberta before earning his Doctor of Chiropractic (D.C.) with distinction from the University of Western States in Portland, Oregon, in 2006. His early career took him across North America and Europe, where he gained extensive experience in patient care, advanced manual therapy, and integrated rehabilitation.

During his years practising in Dublin, Ireland, Dr. Hillaby founded and directed a highly regarded multidisciplinary clinic that served both the general public and a diverse roster of high-performance individuals. His work with globally recognized performers and elite athletes—including Bruce Springsteen, Lady Gaga, Stephen Stills, and WWE superstars John Cena and Randy Orton—refined his understanding of human movement, performance demands, and the power of coordinated, collaborative care. These experiences shaped the integrated health philosophy that would later become the foundation of HillStar.

In 2012, Dr. Hillaby returned home to Grande Prairie to open Elite Health & Performance, a clinic known for excellence in chiropractic care, injury rehabilitation, and community engagement. Over a decade of practice, he cultivated a vision for something larger—a centre where practitioners work collaboratively, patients feel deeply supported, and care pathways reflect the full spectrum of movement, recovery, and performance.

That vision became reality with the creation of HillStar Integrated Health, a purpose-built multidisciplinary environment that unites chiropractic care, physiotherapy, massage therapy, acupuncture/dry needling, custom orthotics, and Class 3B laser therapy under one connected model.

“HillStar Integrated Health represents the synergy of our disciplines — uniting chiropractic, physiotherapy, and massage therapy to restore confidence, enhance mobility, and strengthen overall well-being.
Together, we bring a connected model of care to the Grande Prairie community — one that bridges movement, recovery, and performance under one collaborative philosophy.”

Dr. Hillaby brings advanced training in Graston Technique, Shockwave Therapy, and Active Release Techniques (ART)—in which he previously completed certification—and integrates manual therapies, spinal manipulation, soft-tissue work, and functional rehabilitation into a cohesive, evidence-based approach.

As HillStar’s founder, Dr. Hillaby leads a unified team of chiropractors, physiotherapists, and massage therapists, championing a culture of collaboration, communication, and innovation. His leadership reflects HillStar’s core philosophy: when practitioners work together, patient care becomes transformative.

Outside of his clinical and leadership roles, Dr. Hillaby is deeply committed to community education, empowering individuals to pursue healthier, more connected lives. His passion for integrated healthcare continues to guide HillStar’s growth and shape the future of rehabilitation and wellness in Northern Alberta.
