Dr. Jennifer Newman
Welcome to Chatham Family Chiropractic! I became a chiropractor in 2006 because I wanted to provide a health-focused, fun-filled, judgement-free, well-resourced, encouraging, and easy-going atmosphere for pregnant and expecting mums and their families. After practicing for over 15 years, in 2021 I curated my own space to provide top notch care to families in and around Chantham-Kent, Ontario. My goal is to always promote health, harmony and happiness!
I’m a chiropractor by day and a wife and mom to two little girls by night (and the days I’m not at the office ;). I also enjoy spending time with my family, reading, exercising, coffee with my friends, and continuing to build my knowledge by taking education courses on a nearly continual basis.
