What patients said about Nicole

Kuntie · Google · 22 Sept 2025

“I’ve been seeing Nicole for a few years for my knee osteoarthritis, and the treatments have really helped me manage my pain and stay active. I also appreciate the exercises and advice that make it easier to take care of myself between visits. Her expertise and attention to detail really stood out — she took the time to understand my issues and tailored a treatment plan that actually works. After just a few sessions, my pain has significantly decreased, and my mobility has improved so much. Nicole is always welcoming and supportive. I’d definitely recommend Nicole to anyone looking for quality care!”

Jay Coghill · Google · 13 Sept 2025

“I highly recommend Nicole - she is extremely well skilled at determining what the issue is (including the root cause) and then setting out a course of treatment - both treatment sessions with her and, very importantly, the work (eg stretches, exercises etc) you need to do to get better - and stay that way! Again - highly recommended and thanks Nicole!”

“Dr. Nicole Ballantyne provides amazing chiropractic care. The environment is great and everyone at Ashbridges is warm and welcoming. Nicole listens to my concerns and takes a comprehensive approach to addressing the problem areas which typically includes soft tissue work before and after adjustments, acupuncture and exercises.”

Kim Auger · Google · 10 Jan 2025

“Started seeing Nicole during Covid when I was dealing with some horrible pain. I’d been to chiropractor before and found that it was very “crack and go,” but Nicole was kind, listened and offered treatment that really helped with the pain. She also gave me stretches and exercises to do at home that helped as well. I still see her regularly for tune ups. She is definitely my go to recommendation!”

Astra Scripnick · Google · 27 Apr 2022

“I was hesitant to go in because I’ve been having a back flare up that comes and goes.. so I literally went in and had to say “well I’m fine right now, but sometimes I’m not..” Dr. Nicole Ballantyne found the problem spot immediately and so precisely, even when I couldn’t tell her exactly where it was. She then did soft tissue work before the adjustment, which I’ve rarely experienced at a Chiropractor, and then sent me off with very targeted exercises that I could feel the benefit of right away. I’m so happy I found this place, I’d 100% recommend it and go again.”
