About Michelle
Dr. Michelle grew up on a grain farm near a small town in Saskatchewan. She attended the University of Saskatchewan in the College of Kinesiology and although she initially was planning to be an elementary school teacher, she decided to pursue chiropractic which allowed her to combine all of her passions: health, education, and children. She moved to Minneapolis, Minnesota to attend Northwestern Health Sciences University where she got her Doctorate of Chiropractic - summa cum laude (with the highest distinction). Dr. Michelle is always striving to learn more and took extra classes, seminars, and courses to allow her to deliver high quality care to her patients. Her desire to serve mothers and children also led her to become certified as a childbirth educator, labour/postpartum doula, and breastfeeding counsellor. She uses gentle and specific chiropractic techniques to influence the nervous system and, in turn, allow the body to heal and regenerate. It is her passion to work with entire families, especially pregnant/postpartum women and their children. This is why she is certified in Webster Technique (for pregnant women) and a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA). Dr. Michelle lives in Oxford County with her husband (who is also a chiropractor) and her young daughter. Outside of caring for others with chiropractic, Michelle enjoys being with family, trips to Saskatchewan, reading, playing card/board games, and all things active such as hiking and canoeing!
Dr. Michelle's philosophy is that health and wellness goes beyond pain sensations. The body is
complex and runs through signals sent through the nervous system. Nervous system interference can manifest itself as a
variety of different health concerns. Specific chiropractic adjustments
remove this interference so the brain and the body can communicate more
effectively, allowing the body to heal and adapt. This is how we become
able to experience true wellness.
Her goal is to allow patients to be heard, to educate on health, wellness, and
the nervous system, and to use chiropractic care to help them reach
their own health goals so they can live life well.
Dr. Michelle is also certified in the Webster's technique which is a technique designed for pregnant women.
It focuses on balancing the pelvis to create the most optimal
environment for the baby and to keep mom comfortable. Through this
technique and others that Dr. Michelle uses, women frequently report
decreased lower back pain, sciatica, heartburn, round ligament pain, and
pubic pain, as well as reduced labour/delivery times (YAY!).
