Alexandrine obtained a Bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology from McGill University in 2013, a field promoting healthy lifestyles and injury prevention. During her studies, she completed an internship at the Jewish Rehabilitation Hospital in Laval, teaching adapted exercises to participants with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD), as well as an internship at the Cummings Center, supervising exercise classes for participants with various physical limitations (Parkinson's disease, stroke, multiple sclerosis). At the end of her studies, she worked in a private medical clinic and led sports activities at Centre Claude-Robillard (2014-2016).
​
Seeking to deepen her therapeutic approach, she embarked on osteopathy studies at Centre Ostéopathique du Québec (2013-2020). As part of an osteopathy course, she participated in a case study on lateral epicondylitis, which she presented brilliantly at the Canadian Integrative Healthcare Research Network (INCAM) Research Symposium in 2018. She gained work experience in osteopathy at Physiothérapie & Ostéopathie clinic in Verdun (2015-2021), as well as at Physio Impact clinic in Dorval (2017-2020).
She uses a gentle manual approach respecting the body’s limits and contributing to overall wellness. Her clients appreciate her taking the time to explain them where the discomfort is coming from. Her experience in kinesiology allows her to complement osteopathic treatments with personalized exercises.

Her growing interest in perinatal and pediatric care has led her to pursue postgraduate training in infant care and prenatal care. This passion enables her to expand her skills and provide specialized care to infants, contributing to their well-being and harmonious development.
