Brandon's newest family chiropractic center opened its doors earlier this year in the west end of the city. Resilient Family Chiropractic is located in the strip mall at the corner of 34th and Victoria. Dr. Avery Grossart brings a wealth of experience to the city, including a Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of Manitoba and a Doctor of Chiropractic degree from Life University in Marietta, Georgia. While the clinic will provide various techniques, Dr. Grossart has a special focus in helping pregnant women and children. "I am passionate about working with pregnant women to help them have a more comfortable and reassuring pregnancy as well as post-partum," Grossart told BDNMB. "I am passionate about working with kids as well to help optimize their health and wellness."

Growing up on an organic and regenerative farm near Brandon, Grossart learned about the importance of nutrition and exercise at an early age. However, it was discomfort in her back and legs while training for a half-marathon at University that turned her on to chiropractic care. "Little did I know that on top of relieving my low back pain and shin splints, chiropractic care would allow me to sleep better, feel calmer and increase my energy levels." The clinic officially opened on January 4, 2021, and is currently accepting new patients ranging in age from newborn to 100 years old. "As your chiropractor, I am committed to providing hope and light and giving my best to help you towards ultimate health. In my office, everyone is community and family. I welcome you into my office. It would be my honour and privilege to take care of you and your family!" You can learn more about Resilient Family Chiropractic and book an appointment by visiting www.resilientfamilychiro.ca.
