Chiropractic is an evidence-informed, non-invasive, hands-on health care discipline that focuses on the musculoskeletal system. Chiropractors practice primarily using their hands, providing diagnosis, treatment and preventive care for disorders related to the spine, pelvis, nervous system and joints.

Chiropractors use a combination of treatments, depending on the specific needs of the individual patient. After taking a history, performing an examination and establishing a diagnosis, a chiropractor can develop and carry out a comprehensive treatment/management plan, recommend therapeutic exercise and other non-invasive therapies, and provide nutritional, dietary and lifestyle counselling.

One of the most common therapies a chiropractor uses is spinal manipulative therapy (SMT), which can comprise a variety of adjustment techniques. Specific training in SMT allows chiropractors to provide highly-skilled and precise adjustments to the vertebrae of the spine, correcting joint motion to restore proper movement and improve function.

Dana became passionate about Pilates as it impacted her life as a professional dancer and became necessary for injury prevention and rehabilitation. This passion would continue to grow as she became a new mother and the physical changes and demands of parenthood expanded her view on how Pilates can help heal, build strength, confidence, and increase body awareness. Once thought of as a compliment to her career in dance, Dana soon realized this new discipline was rich with unbounded knowledge and became a certified Pilates Instructor through the Pilates Process method in Mat, Reformer, Stability Chair, and Therapeutic Pilates.

Her classes are foundation-focused and geared towards enhancing core strength, isolation of different muscle groups, improving coordination, and focusing on fluidity of breath and movement. Guiding her clients through exercises, Dana uses a personalized lens to help her clients work toward individual goals, whether improving mobility and range of movement, increasing strength, or working towards less pain, with building individual confidence as a top priority.
