Dr. Amy Marie Lavigne completed her undergraduate Bachelor of Science degree in Honours Biology and Psychology at McMaster University in 2000. Upon completion, Dr. Lavigne attended the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College for a four year comprehensive program focusing on musculosketetal health and holistic healing. She received her Doctor of Chiropractic, graduating magna cum laude, in 2004. She is presently an active member of the Canadian and Alberta Chiropractic Associations.
Dr. Lavigne’s approach to treatment is directed at finding and correcting the underlying cause of the condition to not only treat the symptoms, but to also prevent problems from occurring in the future. She utilizes a variety of hands-on adjusting techniques to effectively treat patients of all ages and conditions. In addition to traditional chiropractic adjustments, Dr. Lavigne focuses on deep tissue massage, exercise prescription, custom-made orthotic bracing, posture correction and nutritional/lifestyle advice in order to help her patients achieve their optimal health potential.
Dr. Lavigne has made it a priority to share her knowledge of healthy living and wellness with the public. She donates her time, educating groups on disease prevention, effective lifestyle choices, and staying healthy naturally. She has presented these motivational health talks to corporations such as American Express & Clarica as well as various community groups and associations in York region and York University.
Dr. Lavigne is the mother of two beautiful children and, in her free time, loves spending time outdoors with her family. She has recently moved from Ontario, where she practiced for 7 years at York University, and is looking forward to experiencing all the beauty that Calgary has to offer.
