Heel pain holding you back? 👣

Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain. It affects people who are on their feet for long periods or who increase their activity too quickly (like runners).

Chiropractic care can help by addressing problems in the feet, ankles, or even lower back that may contribute to excess strain on the plantar fascia. 🦶

Did you pull a hammy? 🦵

Hamstring strains are common with running. This is because the hamstrings must slow down the leg as it swings.

When it comes to prevention and returning to sport, the Nordic hamstring curl is the go-to exercise for helping strengthen the hamstrings. However, if the Nordic hamstring curl is too difficult, there are other exercises that we recommend to help!

Strength training to build lean muscle and maintaining a healthy weight are essential for keeping your back strong and pain-free as you age! 🙌 Check out this infographic for more tips on healthy exercise! https://bit.ly/3kbu22X

Our Story

As one of Barrhaven's longest serving Chiropractic clinic, I continually strive to achieve the highest standards of excellence in all aspects of patient care. This high-level of quality and service has helped me become the number one choice for many residents of Barrhaven and surrounding areas for Chiropractic care, and custom orthotics.

Originally from Trois-Rivières, QC, I have been in practice in Barrhaven since 1993. Over the past 25 years, I have continuously acquired further knowledge, skills and experience, but it is my passion for caring for people and my ultimate goal of restoring their optimal health that has fuelled my success and established me as a well-respected health care practitioner in my community.

Additionally, I hold positions with the Canadian Chiropractic Board of Examiners and the College of Chiropractors of Ontario. It has been very professionally fulfilling and gratifying to serve the Chiropractic profession outside the traditional clinic sense, all the while providing an opportunity for myself to continuously learn and remain the best Chiropractor I can be.

In addition to Chiropractic care, South Nepean Family Chiropractic also offers Massage Therapy. Our in house massage therapist is Angela Hopper.
