Bienvenue chez soi – Your safe space

Home

Bercail is a local therapeutic space. A place to rest, where you’re welcomed with open arms, like a return to your roots.

Located in Hemmingford on a former farm, Bercail is a clinic that reflects the world of agriculture, crops and orchards that surrounds it, at the speed of life, punctuated by the sound of cows and winds in the fields.

I offer personalized support to help you return to your daily activities. My approach is aligned with person-centred care, where patients are an integral part of the treatment plan and actively participate in their care. Explanation and outreach are therefore an integral part of my work. Because, in the end, you are the specialist in your body.

It’s a manual therapy to restore your body’s mobility and help you get back to your normal activities.

◦ Injuries

◦ Migraines

◦ Concussions

About

I’ve always wanted to help others. When I was very young, I looked at my mother, a nurse, with admiration, understanding that she was of use on a daily basis. Then I spent my teenage years wondering what profession would enable me to take care of people in their entirety, taking into account the complexity of life and each person’s background.

It was a shoulder injury that led me to consult an osteopath and, as well as providing relief, my curiosity was piqued: how does it work?

That was all it took for me to enroll at the Collège d’Études Ostéopathiques de Montréal. As my studies progressed, I came to understand that osteopathy was primarily a question of anatomy and biomechanics, with the innovative aspect of seeing the body as a whole and not in segments. I was convinced by the holistic approach advocated, with its emphasis on prevention and helping the body to regain balance.

After graduating in 2019, I travelled through the province in search of a region that would suit me. Having grown up in Beauce, I felt the call of the countryside and the need to get closer to nature. I chose Hemmingford as my adopted home, charmed by the warmth of the people and the market garden landscapes. In the autumn of 2023, I moved into a magnificent century-old house and slowly set up my care space over the winter.

When I’m not treating, I’m probably tending the garden and fruit trees, or watching the birds. I aspire to have the patience to watch asparagus grow

“Marie-France is simply brilliant! Humane, attentive and empathetic, she makes treatments a pleasure. Thank you!”
