Dr. Margherita Brini
Born and raised in BC, Margherita is a Doctor of Chiropractics specializing in supporting your body's natural healing power through a gentle, integrative approach.
As a vitalistic chiropractor, Dr. Margherita’s care is rooted in honoring the body’s inherent wisdom and supporting its natural ability to heal and adapt. Her integrative approach addresses tension in the muscles, ligaments, connective tissue, and organs in relation to the spine, nervous system, and whole body. Drawing from a range of modalities—including low-force and light-touch methods, myofascial release, and traditional chiropractic adjustments—she tailors each treatment to meet the unique needs of every person. With a background as a holistic birth and postpartum doula, Dr. Margherita has extensive training and a passion for working with babies, children, and pregnant women. She specializes in prenatal, postpartum, and pediatric chiropractic care.
Specializations and Training
Prenatal Chiropractic Care: Dr. Margherita is Webster Technique certified, a prenatal chiropractic protocol designed to reduce nervous system stress and balance the pelvis for optimal function during pregnancy. A regulated nervous system supports hormonal, neurological, and physical transitions for a more adaptable and easeful pregnancy.
Pediatric Care: For infants and children, a balanced nervous system supports healthy growth and development. Pediatric adjustments may include craniosacral and myofascial unwinding techniques that follow the body’s natural fascial rhythms to promote regulation and ease.
Extremity Adjusting & Intraoral: Dr. Margherita also assesses and adjusts extremities such as shoulders, wrists, hips, knees, and feet. Her intraoral work supports those with TMJ dysfunction by releasing fascial tension patterns inside the mouth and along the jaw and cranium.
Craniosacral Therapy: This gentle technique helps regulate the nervous system by releasing fascial restrictions and balancing the craniosacral rhythm that supports cerebrospinal fluid flow. Craniosacral therapy can ease both acute and chronic symptoms related to nervous system dysregulation.
