Hi, I’m Dr. Heather McDowell! I’m a chiropractor and the owner of County Chiropractic. My passion for chiropractic began as a teen after a soccer injury—chiropractic care helped me get back on the field, and that experience inspired me to pursue this profession. I completed my Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology at the University of Waterloo, followed by a Master’s in Exercise Physiology at San Jose State University. From there, I went on to graduate cum laude as class valedictorian from Palmer College of Chiropractic West in California. I’ve continued my training with the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association, and I’m certified in the Webster Technique, the PIPS Technique, and as a kinesiologist. I especially enjoy working with kids and pregnant clients, supporting them through these important stages of life.

A little about me: * I’m married to my husband John, and we’re raising two daughters, Poppy and Clover * We share our home with our dogs, Ruby and Royal * I’ve had two all-natural home births in a birthing tub, which fuels my passion for natural family wellness * I enjoy gardening, herbal medicine, and practicing yoga (which is how John and I met!) * My favourite local beach is Sandbanks, and my favourite restaurant is Flame + Smith * My go-to spot for coffee and a treat is Miss Lily’s Café * I love being active outdoors—walking our dogs, hiking, running, and playing soccer * A fun fact: my sister is also a chiropractor!

Hi, I’m Dr. Ardavan Jafari, but most people call me Dr. Ardi! I earned my Bachelor of Kinesiology from the University of Toronto in 2016, followed by a Master of Science in Immunology from York University in 2019, and my Doctor of Chiropractic degree from the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College in 2024. Along the way, I was honoured with the A. Earl Homewood Memorial Award and had my research published in journals such as the American Journal of Physiology-Cell Physiology and PLoS One.

In practice, I treat a wide variety of musculoskeletal conditions, but I have a special interest in managing jaw and orofacial discomfort as well as chronic headaches related to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ). My additional training allows me to offer specialized care for TMJ pain, neck pain, athlete management, and instrument-assisted soft tissue therapy.

A few things about me: * I recently got married and love spending time with my wife and my dog, Lobo * I’m a passionate soccer fan (Real Madrid!) and enjoy both playing and watching the sport * I love to travel and explore new places * My favourite local spots for espresso are Rise and Beacon * I’m a car enthusiast and enjoy talking shop whenever I can * My interest in jaw and orofacial care was inspired by my fiancé and brother, who are both dentists

Hi, I’m Dr. Jessica Longhi—but you can call me Dr. Jess! I grew up in Vaughan, Ontario, before moving to Peterborough, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Health Sciences and later a Master’s degree at Trent University. I always knew I wanted to help people in healthcare, but it wasn’t until I discovered chiropractic that everything clicked. I connected with the profession instantly and knew it was the way I could truly improve people’s quality of life. I went on to earn my Doctor of Chiropractic degree at New York Chiropractic College in Seneca Falls, New York. During that time, I worked with clients of all ages, from infants to seniors. One of the most impactful experiences was completing a residency at the Rochester Veterans Affairs Outpatient Clinic, where I developed a strong interest in working with adults and older adults. That experience reinforced my holistic approach—seeing the person, not just the condition. My love for animals also led me to pursue animal chiropractic certification through the Veterinary Chiropractic Learning Centre here in Canada. Today, I run Morrice Animal Chiropractic out of our Picton location, where I have the joy of working with both small and large animals.

A little about me: * I’m married to my husband, Tim, and together we’re raising our daughter in Quinte West * I have two wonderful dogs, Dolly and Daisy * I’m the proud forever-person to Pete, my off-the-track Standardbred horse * I love spending time outdoors—gardening, long walks, and evenings by the campfire * I enjoy visiting art galleries and exploring creativity in all forms * My favourite restaurant is Bocado * My favourite flower is the dahlia
