From a young age, Heather understood the benefits of chiropractic. It was her family’s go-to solution for any injury. After being hurt playing soccer, the chiropractor got her back on the field. Since then, chiropractic was Heather’s chosen career. First, she attended the University of Waterloo. There, she earned a Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology. Then, it was on to San Jose State University for a master’s degree in exercise physiology. This experience caused Heather to fall in love with California. She enrolled at Palmer College of Chiropractic West in San Jose. There, Heather graduated cum laude as class valedictorian.
Heather enjoys taking additional studies. She is certified in the Webster Technique and is PIPS certified. Additionally, she is a certified kinesiologist. With her love of travel, Heather has an appreciation for different cultures. Her adventures have taken her to India for a Palmer Clinic Abroad Program. She also lived and practiced in Newcastle upon Tyne in England.
Heather and her husband John are loving living life in the Prince Edward County. They welcomed their baby girl, Poppy, into the world and have enjoyed their new roles as parents. In her spare time outside of County Chiropractic Centre, Heather loves being outside. She likes walking the dogs, going hiking, doing yoga, playing soccer, and running.
Heather is very excited to start this new chapter in her chiropractic journey by being apart of the board of directors for the AFC. When she was asked to join it was a no brainer and she can’t wait to be apart of its growth.
