She was first introduced to chiropractic care at the age of sixteen when she was having occasional low back pain due to playing tennis competitively, and again years later from a work injury. Due to the care she received, she was amazed at how chiropractic helped her achieve less pain, better mobility, and helped her continue her tennis ambitions. Since then, she strives to provide the same level of care and treatment that she had received to all of her patients. Rachelle provides tailored chiropractic care to everyone she treats, using a wide range of adjustment and mobilisation techniques, soft tissue therapy, and evidence-based rehabilitation exercise prescription. Rachelle has been playing tennis for fifteen years, although rusty, she still likes to play a game here and there to let her competitiveness out. Rachelle likes to try different kinds of sports and activities, such as the Miss Maudy mud run, dance classes, and even playing dodgeball at a semi-competitive level (her team never won a game but recalls that it was ridiculously fun). She also likes to make spontaneous videos whenever, mostly about travel or small moments, but she’s made video editing her hobby over the years. Lastly, Rachelle’s also a big enthusiast of food, always on the lookout for places with good food or getting recommendations from everyone on recipes to try. |
