We’re 3 today!

I may never find the words to articulate how grateful I am for all of our amazing patients. I had no idea where this would go when I decided to create this space in 2020. I have been lucky beyond words with our clinicians, each one is incredibly talented and I couldn’t have dreamt up a better group of I tried.

Thank you thank you thank you for helping DWC come to life. We appreciate each and every one of you 🫶🏼

We have a new RMT on board! 🥳
Welcome to Dartmouth Wellness !

Cheryl’s passion for health and wellness has been evident since childhood and today she holds a Bachelor of Kinesiology and a diploma in Massage Therapy.

Cheryl is skilled in many types of massage, including postural dysfunctions and whiplash-related disorders. Since graduation, Cheryl has also spent a significant portion of her time treating those with PTSD, depression, and anxiety. She also has experience treating different postural dysfunctions and whiplash-related disorders.

When you book a treatment with Cheryl, you will receive an in-depth assessment and customized treatment plan that will help you meet your goals – whatever they may be!

Cheryl is always looking to learn more skills and expand her knowledge so that she can provide clients with the most effective treatment and get them back to doing what they love.

When she isn’t at the clinic, you can find Cheryl hiking, hanging out in her hammock with a good book, or at home with her two cats, Janine & Chase.

We are happy to share with you that Dartmouth Wellness has partnered with Therma-Can Imaging for a 1-Day Pop-Up Thermology Clinic. As part of our mission to offer holistic health resources from a collective of different practitioners, hosting a thermology clinic is another way you can access information about your current - and future - health.

What is Thermology??

Thermology evaluates the current function and early dysfunction of tissues at the cellular level. Thermology provides the most sensitive and earliest means to discern degenerative changes in tissue.
ThermaCan Digital Infrared Imaging uses a medical-grade FDA-approved camera, which measures temperatures naturally emitting from the body. This is done without radiation, compression, contact, or needles.
It is completely safe for all people and offers quantitative and objective analysis.
With your detailed report, you and your Health Care Provider can implement and monitor an individualized health program to assist in maintaining or restoring optimal health.

Spots are limited, so if you are interested please contact
