She believes very strongly that chiropractic and nutrition go hand in hand in the quest for health.

The practice was sold in the summer of 2012 and Dr. Grondin-Stevens headed back to Maine where she purchased what is now Full Circle Health & Wellness. She is a Proficiency rated Activator doctor. When she is not working, she enjoys spending time with her husband and 5 children.
