Kiro Sherbrooke

Dr Christiane Gendron is truly a chiropractor Sherbrooke can be proud of. She has always been fascinated by health because her mother was very sick. That’s the reason why she studied pharmacy for 2 years at University of Montreal. In 1997, she discovered the wonders of upper cervical chiropractic. Upper cervical chiropractic deeply helped Dr Gendron with her asthma and allergies to cat. It also increased her energy level. This convinced her to quit pharmacy and become a chiropractor. Upper Cervical Chiropractic Care is extremely specialized and vitally important. The care is “specific” because of the unique structure and function of the upper cervical spine–the Atlas and the Axis. These two vertebrae, unlike any other in the spine, are primarily held in place by ligaments and muscles, instead of bone. While this allows for greater mobility, structural stability is susceptible to misalignment from traumas such as falls, auto accidents, sports injuries, and birth traumas. Misalignment at this level may produce irritation to the brain stem and nervous system, and compromise an individual’s health.
