A Personal Connection to Care
Early in life, Dr. Kricken experienced a neck injury while playing football. That moment changed his perspective on movement and pain. What began as a source of frustration became a catalyst: after seeking chiropractic care and noticing meaningful improvement, he gained a deeper appreciation for the role careful assessment and gentle, targeted care can play in everyday comfort.
This experience has remained with him throughout his career, shaping his approach to treatment and his patient-focused philosophy. He understands firsthand how discomfort can affect daily life, and he brings that empathy and insight to every consultation.

Lakeview Chiropractic is more than Dr. Mike, it's a small, warm team dedicated to making every visit feel welcoming from the moment you walk in.
Office Manager
Lynn
Whether you phone or email Lakeview Chiropractic, Lynn will most likely be your first contact, and also the welcoming smile when you walk into the office. Lynn met Dr. Mike when they were 14 years old, so she's truly an OG team member, although this is the first time they've actually worked together.
With a solid foundation in administration in the legal profession and hands-on experience running her own e-commerce business, Lynn brings a high level of efficiency to the office.
She loves working alongside Dr. Mike, getting to know great people, and most of all watching the positive results and life-changing benefits people experience through chiropractic care.
Outside of work, Lynn enjoys her walks with Johnny, a good book, expressing her creativity through gardening & home projects, and spending time with her family & little grandchildren.

Outside the Clinic
Outside of the clinic, Michael and his wife Lynn enjoy an active lifestyle and spending time with their family. As proud grandparents, they value time with their grandchildren and the moments they get to share together as a family.
They enjoy staying active, spending time outdoors around Calgary, and making the most of everyday moments together. Much of their time outside the clinic is centered around family, movement, and the simple routines that make life meaningful.
