comfort was they key word when doctors sheila bonnett and kim baker decided to relocate their practice and create a new family-friendly space that caters to the wellness needs for everyone — from a newborn baby to those enjoying their golden years.
“we wanted it to feel like you were coming into our living room and not into a clinical cold setting,” baker explained.
“we designed it like we would have designed our home,” bonnett agreed.
moving into the marquis industrial neighbourhood gave them the space they needed to see that dream become reality — and with the opening of the chief mistawasis bridge close on the horizon it will be an easy journey for anyone to make it in for an appointment.
not only do the pair offer chiropractic treatments, baker is also trained in medically based acupuncture and very soon their practice will welcome new staff members — one specializing in traditional chinese acupuncture, cupping therapy, moxibustion therapy and qigong and the others in massage therapy.
as soon as a patient walks through the doors, every aspect of their treatment is personalized to exactly what they need to feel better at that moment in time. it all starts with a online form outlining the problems the patient is experiencing. once arriving at the clinic patients undergo a physical examination, orthopedic tests and a neurological screening so they can come up with a proper diagnosis and create a tailor-made plan for recovery.

“it’s more than the ‘rack ’em crack ’em’ that most people associate with chiropractors,” bonnett finishes. “we have hundreds of different techniques under the umbrella of chiropractic and no two people will be treated the same. it’s gentle, safe and effective — however we can reduce those subluxations and improve the function of your nervous system that’s what we’re going with.”
