Beyond the clinic
Movement is personal here, too.
Movement has shaped Christina's life from an early age. She trained and competed as a dancer for 18 years, which led her to pursue chiropractic.

BKI, DC
Christina holds a Bachelor of Knowledge Integration and earned her Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC), graduating as class valedictorian and with academic distinction. She subsequently completed the first year of CMCC's two-year Clinical Sciences Residency Program. This program combined advanced postgraduate training involving hospital-based clinical practice, diagnostic reasoning and critical thinking, multidisciplinary care, undergraduate teaching, and independent research.
Her research explores how health professionals learn together, collaborate across disciplines, and apply evidence in clinical care. She has contributed to multiple peer-reviewed research publications and brings that same curiosity and critical thinking to her work as a chiropractor.
