Our mission:
Practice chiropractic with excellency and strive for continual growth and improvement of our services. Promoting healthy lifestyles by looking out for your joints, muscles and nerves, while also looking out for your health in all aspects, and providing you with resources or referrals to appropriate health practitioners, when other health conditions are suspected. Increasing resiliency in our patients. With the help of specific exercises, and advise we may recommend, your body can become stronger and better at adapting to load, so that your daily activities (that may stress your muscles and joints) impact you less, and are less likely to cause you pain in the future.
Our Story:
Formerly Dr Claude Bourassa’s Office from 1980 to April 2021, Dr Bourassa is passing the torch on to Dr Danielle Mercier. Since her return to town in January 2021, Dr Danielle has been eagerly preparing and making herself at home in the clinic. Along with Dr Bourassa’s guidance, will smoothly transition from his hands to hers. Dr Danielle is committed to ensure that the clinic continues to provide affordable, quality services to Cochrane and the surrounding municipalities. The practice will continue to focus on individualised care with the use of adjustments, soft tissue therapy, heat and or electric modalities, and the ever-present exercise or rehabilitation prescriptions. The future of the clinic is bright, and we will continue to build on the great foundations established by Dr Bourassa.

Dr. Danielle Mercier
Born and raised in Cochrane, Danielle always knew she wanted to live and work here. She likes living in a small tight-knit community, and enjoys fishing, hunting and simply getting outdoors. Danielle studied a Bachelor of Kinésiologie at Laurentian University because she always had an interest in health sciences, and wanted to stay as close to home as possible. It wasn’t until her final year of her bachelors that Danielle decided to pursue chiropractic, after completing a University Internship at Dr. Bourassa’s office, and being impressed by what she saw. During an assignment in one of her final courses of her bachelors, Danielle did some research on international programs for chiropractic, and found a school in Sydney Australia (Macquarie University). The application was free, she would know in 2 weeks, and could start just 1 month after finishing her previous degree. There was nothing stopping her from this great adventure! After 3 years in Sydney, Dr. Danielle is back home, and eager to start building her Practice in the community.
