For more than two decades, Dr. Michele Arishenkoff has been practicing Chiropractic in the Oakville area. After graduation from CMCC in Toronto, she worked as an associate practitioner and, in 2004, she established the Chiropractic Wellness Group.
Dr. Arishenkoff realized the need to provide a calm environment for individualized, quality care. With her years of clinical experience, Dr. Arishenkoff has been drawn to a niche that serves patients in a unique manner. Her practice focuses on injury prevention and maintenance of spine, more specifically, joint function. Special interests include the effects of fascial strain. She also recognizes the role of the mind-body connection in health and disease. As such, she employs specialized techniques beyond traditional Diversified Chiropractic and Activator Methods including Cranial Release, Cold Laser Therapy, Reflex Trigger Points, and Raindrop Technique. Dr. Arishenkoff also understands the importance of lifestyle habits (e.g. diet, exercise and positive mental attitude) and the effects of stress, that make a difference in health and chronic disease.
Dr. Arishenkoff says, “I was 15 years old when I first visited a Chiropractor. I woke up one morning and couldn't turn my head. My neck was stuck and very painful. A friend of mine referred me to her Chiropractor. I was totally impressed with how this "alternative" doctor handled my case. He took the time to listen, had compassion and fixed my problem….without drugs and without surgery. The simplicity of the adjustment, the common sense of the process, the respect given to the whole body, and the effectiveness of the procedure certainly caught my attention. With a strong curiosity in Biological Sciences and a keen desire to help people, my journey in the Chiropractic profession began."
