About Us

Our Mission

At the Maison Chiropratique Petits et Grands, our mission is to accompany, to guide and to serve pregnant women, challenged children, little babies, children of all ages and their families in the full expression of their potential of life.

We call it a Home (Maison) for many reasons. Here, you are not patients; you are people that we serve. Here, we do not treat diseases; we adjust individuals. Here, our walls are painted yellow to put you in a good mood. Here, we take as much time as you need. Here, we offer you herbal tea or water as you come in. Here, children are always welcome. Here, we are constantly learning and improving ourselves. Here, we are very grateful that you are part of our family. Here, we will take care of you as if you were our brother, our sister, our mother, our father, or our child. Here, we honour you…

 

Dr Martine Dionne, Chiropractor D.C., B.Ed., M.Sc., D.I.C.C.P.

Hello! For those of you who do not already know me, I will introduce myself. I am the proud Mommy of Axel, an adorable little boy with light curls and unforgettable blue eyes and of Éloi, a magnificient baby with a devilish smile, who often accompanies me to the office. The wonderful Daddy of those adorable children is my partner, Stéphane Dumont, an elementary school physical education teacher. We are originally from Montreal.  I have a Bachelor in Fitness from McGill University, as well as a Masters in Neurokinetics from the Université du Québec à Montréal. I have also completed my undergraduate Doctorate of Chiropractic degree at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières. As part of my life journey, I have worked for 3 years with children that had autistic disorders. I was a volunteer at the Montreal Rehabilitation Institute, which brought me into contact with people who had many special needs. For three years now, I have been a doula to families wishing to live a more fulfilling pregnancy. I have a Diplomate from the International Council of Chiropractic Pediatrics, which represents the highest level of academic achievement in the matter. Only seven chiropractors in Quebec have this diploma. I am a member of the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, as well as a member of the Canadian Chiropractic Association, the Association des Chiropraticiens du Québec, of the Ordre des Chiropraticiens du Québec, and of the Holistic Pediatric Association.
