Good Evening Armstrong!
I am happy to announce that my online booking is open, and I am accepting NEW patients again at ALTHA Health and Sport!
This little one has been taking up most of my spare time these days, but I’m excited to have the opportunity to see more patients! Chiropractic care can be beneficial to help treat neck and back pain, and is also helpful for whiplash, shoulder and knee injuries, tennis elbow, ankle sprains, plantar fasciitis and so much more! I also enjoy working with postpartum women, to help increase strength and relieve pain/tension related to caring for infants and young children.
Treatments include muscle work (active release), joint mobilizations, adjustments(if/when warranted) along with personalized rehab exercises to keep you moving and feeling your best. Movement is the best possible medicine!
I will have increasing availability for afternoon and evening appointments (and one Saturday per month) going forward into the fall. Direct billing is available to most major insurance providers and ICBC.
Feel free to message me if you have any questions!

It has been a while since I posted, but life has been hectic between teething, stomach flus, sleep regressions and trying to run a small business with a baby!
I am pleased to announce that I am opening up my online booking again for patients, starting today!
Our daughter continues to be quite particular about how and by whom she is fed, so my hours are still limited for now. I appreciate everyone’s flexibility to date, as 6 month olds appetites don’t care much about work schedules! 🫣
I will have VERY LIMITED availability for both new patient and evening appointments, so if you are in need of either of those, please email me and add yourself to my waitlist. It has been lovely seeing everyone again as I transition back to part-time work, and thank you all for your patience as I navigate this new chapter! 🤍🙏🏼
Cheers,
Dr Pauline

Thank-you to all my patients who have trusted me with their care at over the past year! Armstrong is such a fantastic community, and I feel blessed to both live and work here! I am so grateful to you all for the referrals and recommendations that have helped my small business to grow and thrive!
A reminder that this is my LAST WEEK treating patients in office before taking a short maternity leave into early 2025. I do have a few appointment spots left, if you need some help before the holidays! Previous and current patients will receive email notification of my estimated return date when I have decided on a tentative schedule.
If you require care while I am on leave, we have an amazing group of physical therapy practitioners in this community who can help, so please reach out to them! I am always happy to provide case specific suggestions for providers as well! 👐🏼
Wishing you all a joyous holiday season, however you choose to celebrate it! Looking forward to working with you again in 2025! ✨🎄❄️
Cheers, Pauline

My Story

About Me

Hailing from beautiful Vancouver Island, British Columbia, I have always had a passion for Nature, Sports and Nutrition. I am an avid camper, hiker, and amateur bass fisher-woman with a love of animals, plants and gardening. I have an undergraduate degree in Biology and Psychology with Distinction from the University of Victoria and a Doctor of Chiropractic degree with Magna Cum Laude distinction from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College. I play recreational soccer in the summer, ice hockey in the winter and I am learning to snowboard. I have personal experience with the importance of nutrition and how it relates to health and digestive ailments, so if you get me talking about the gut microbiome and healthy bacteria we will definitely need some time! I am proud to permanently call the Okanagan Valley home and cannot wait to explore all the hidden natural gems it has to offer.

Over the past year it has been a pleasure to meet and work with so many fantastic patients from Vernon and its surrounding areas. I have a passion for movement and its ability to heal, which I work to incorporate into every treatment.

My mission is to empower, educate and inspire my patients to be proactive about their health and wellness. From head to toe, I can help with sprains, strains, sports injuries, chronic pain and more. As a Chiropractor and Certified Sports First Responder I am thrilled to work with sports teams, on and off the field of play. I have experience with athletes of all ages, from Minor Atom AAA hockey teams to Men’s Rugby and much more.
