Hello, My name is Dr. Melanie, owner and chiropractor here at the Ottawa Chiropractic Studio. Thank you for your interest in our services. As a bilingual (English and French) chiropractor based in Ottawa, I offering safe and effective care using evidence-based technique in manual medicine.
My Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College and over 16 years of experience have given me expert knowledge in spinal and musculoskeletal health. My goal is to help you feel your best. To do this, I use a range of techniques, including:
Spinal adjustments, joint mobilization, and manipulation
Myofascial release and Graston Technique® (Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Therapy)
Kinesio® Taping (Basic, Advanced, and Sports Specific)
Activator Methods®
Mulligan Concepts (Specialized manual therapy for lower limbs)
MedX Laser Therapy and Shockwave Therapy
Rehabilitative exercise prescriptions
I also have a special interest in helping children. I have specific training in working with children who have scoliosis, Autism Spectrum Disorder, and ADD/ADHD. I'm passionate about helping parents discover how chiropractic care, proper nutrition, and targeted exercises can help their children thrive.
After many years of treating patients, I'm so proud to have created my own little slice of chiropractic heaven—the Ottawa Chiropractic Studio in the beautiful and trendy neighborhood of New Edinburgh, Beechwood Village. This studio has been a huge success, and I'm grateful for all of your support!
I invite you to stay connected with us on Facebook and Instagram for tips, updates, and more. I look forward to seeing you there!
WELCOMING Dr. Jillian Squires to the team! She is currently accepting mew patients.
Hello, my name is Dr. Jillian Squires and I am very excited to be joining Dr. Melanie at Ottawa Chiropractic Studio. I have been working as a chiropractor since 2009, practicing in Portugal at the beginning of my career and then spending the past 13 years of practice as the owner/operator of a very successful clinic in northern BC.
With a background in Kinesiology, I then graduated from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College and have extensive experience treating patients of all ages, utilizing techniques such as diversified chiropractic adjustments, joint mobilizations and spinal rehabilitation. I am trained in Active Release Technique (A.R.T), which is a specific muscle release therapy that is extremely effective in treating a wide range of muscular injuries and conditions from shoulder injuries to tension headaches.
With three kiddos of my own, over the years I have developed a strong interest in pediatric and female centered care, specifically pre and post natal care, infant care, breastfeeding support and pelvic floor rehabilitation. I am certified MUTU pro, teaching mothers rehabilitation techniques to help them recover from the physical tolls of pregnancy and delivery, which include pelvic floor dysfunction and prolapse, diastasis (separation of abdominal muscles) and lower back pain.
I am also in the process of becoming a international board certified lactation consultant (IBCLC), after observing how the combination of chiropractic care plus lactation support often get the mother-baby dio off to their best start in the breastfeeding journey.
I am really looking forward to helping patients feel their best and upholding the excellent care that has been a hallmark of Ottawa Chiropractic Studio from the beginning.
See you soon,
Dr. Jill
