Chiropractic care focuses on identifying and treating problems involving the spine, joints, muscles, and nervous system that may be contributing to pain or restricted movement. Treatment may include spinal adjustments, soft tissue therapy, rehabilitation exercises, and education to help reduce pain, improve movement, and support your body's natural healing process.

Absolutely. Chiropractic care during pregnancy uses gentle techniques that are adapted to your changing body. Many pregnant patients seek care to help with back pain, pelvic discomfort, and other common aches associated with pregnancy. Treatment is always modified to keep both you and your baby comfortable throughout your care.

We can often book new patients the same day or the next business day, depending on availability. Online booking is available up to one hour before your appointment, and if you're trying to book on shorter notice, just give us a call—we'll do our best to fit you in.

Dr. Renee uses a variety of chiropractic techniques and always chooses the one that's most appropriate for you. Patient comfort, health history, and personal preferences are always taken into account. If there's a particular technique you're uncomfortable with, just let us know—we're happy to adapt your care whenever possible.
In many cases, yes. If it's safe and appropriate to do so, Dr. Renee will typically perform a complaint-based adjustment during your first visit. However, if further testing or imaging is needed before treatment, your adjustment may be postponed until those results have been reviewed. Every recommendation is made on a case-by-case basis with your safety in mind.
Every patient is different. Your recommended schedule will depend on your examination findings, your goals, and how your body responds to care. As you improve, appointments are typically spaced farther apart. Throughout your care, we'll regularly reassess your progress and make adjustments to your treatment plan as needed.
After the initial visit, the progress of each patient will be reassessed periodically. Typically a re-evaluation is performed by Dr. Renee every 12 visits. Re-assessments must be performed within 24 visits as per College of Chiropractors of Ontario standards of practice.
Most extended health plans include coverage for chiropractic care, but every plan is different. We recommend checking with your insurance provider to confirm your coverage and whether a referral is required. While we don't direct-bill extended health benefits, we'll provide you with an invoice you can submit for reimbursement.
We understand that life happens! If you need to cancel or reschedule, we simply ask that you let us know as soon as possible so we can offer your appointment to someone else.
