About Jennifer

I am thrilled to be home and starting my practice at Peterborough Wellness Group After growing up and graduating high school in Peterborough it’s hard to believe that a decade has come and gone since I last called this city home. I must say I am thrilled to be home and starting my practice here. I am proud of my roots and it is very rewarding improving the health of the people I grew up around and care so much about. After much thought, I decided I wanted to become a Chiropractor Choosing a career path was not easy for me. After high school I completed my honors science degree at the University of Waterloo. Four years of studying science and I still did not know what I wanted to be when I “grew up”. I took a year off to determine my next step. After much thought, research, and personal experience, I decided I wanted to become a chiropractor. I attended the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) in Toronto and after four grueling years I knew I made the right decision. Although there is much diversity within the profession, chiropractors all share the same belief; the spine and overall health are related in a fundamental way, and this relationship is mediated through the nervous system. Learn Less About Dr. Jennifer I am a perpetual learner and take great pride in my up to date knowledge of chiropractic, health care, disease processes, and treatment techniques. I am currently enrolled in a Pregnancy and Pediatrics course with the ICPA. I will have my full certification by December 2013. Once this certification is complete I plan on working on my acupuncture certification. Continuing education is very important. I take pride in relaying all new information I learn to my patients. I do my best to educate patients on their condition, the importance of preventative and maintenance care and give advice on appropriate diet and exercise regimes. I use a number of Chiropractic Techniques at my practice. In practice, I use a number of techniques to provide optimal patient care; spinal manipulation, muscle release therapy, laser therapy, Webster technique, drop table, Activator, and I prescribe rehabilitation exercises. Proper chiropractic care requires commitment from not only myself but from you as well. My job is to ensure your spine is functioning at its optimal capacity minimizing disturbances in your nervous system. Your job is to keep your body healthy between visits. The human body has an amazing ability to heal itself when it is functioning at its optimal capacity. People who regularly see a chiropractor have less illness, less injury, and spend less time at their doctor’s office. Regular chiropractic care is part of a healthy lifestyle. Let me help you make it a part of yours. Often patients ask me how often they should receive chiropractic care. There is no general answer to this question. Every body is different. So many factors come into play; past medical history, activity level, if you are taking medications, age, your commitment to care, and most importantly how your body responds to care. When you come into the clinic, a full medical history and physical exam is performed. With the information I collect, a diagnosis and a care plan will be determined. I am very happy to be married to my best friend and high school sweetheart. Nick and I are both recent chiropractic graduates each taking on very different practices. He works mainly with golfers in Toronto where I have a family practice here. I am currently on the interview panel for new students applying to CMCC and I participate in the Back’s in Motion run to help raise money for chiropractic research. I enjoy exercise classes at the gym, running, cooking, and spending time with my family and friends. I appreciate you taking time to visit our website and read through our profiles. Life can be very busy but taking time for your health is important. I look forward to meeting you to discuss your health concern. Give our Peterborough office a call and start your journey to optimal health.
