Dr. Kelly Norman, B.Sc., D.C.

"It is my passion to help people discover how good it feels to be healthy again"

It was during her chiropractic education at Palmer that Dr. Norman discovered the true meaning of health. A person is not healthy unless they have a properly functioning nervous system. "A small part of my job is to help people with their aches and pains; more importantly, I assist in the body's natural healing process by improving nerve function."

Too often, we accept or drug pain as part of our reality, rather than trying to find and eliminate its causes. One often accepts poor health as their "norm"- normal headaches, fatigue, coughs and colds. And very often, the simple realization that these conditions are not normal can be an exciting first step to real change.

Just as all individuals have their own unique set of symptoms and underlying causes there is no "formula" for the recovery of good health, but there are rules. You and Dr. Norman work together to create a realistic, individual treatment plan, which represents a true commitment to change for the better.

Dr. Norman's goals are to help you be free of pain and energetic. You work closely with her to optimize your nervous system and your natural healing mechanisms, resulting in a new awareness of your body's natural state of health and vitality.

"I enjoy working with people who see themselves as active participants in choosing better health and a better life for themselves and their families"

In her efforts to excel in family Chiropractic care, Dr. Norman has obtained a certification in prenatal and pediatric care. This program is offered through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association (ICPA) and allows chiropractors to attend to the very specific needs of children and expectant mothers. Dr. Norman has also obtained a certification in Webster Technique, a development in prenatal care that can facilitate the birth process for women, especially in the event of a breech birth. Dr. Norman works closely with a complement of Ottawa's best prenatal and pediatric practitioners.
