What areas can I get treated?
We treat all areas of the spine, muscles, joints, tendons and nerves! Our chiropractors and physiotherapists are highly trained to provide manual therapy to issues that include, but not limited to, back pain, neck pain, plantar fasciitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, tennis elbow, knee pain, rib pain, and all other issues relating to your joints and the muscles around it! For muscle pain, our massage therapist are trained to provide therapeutic care to any injuries that cause muscle tissue to tighten or cause aches and pains.
Will I be in pain afterwards?
With any of our treatments, some will find that they get instant relief and walk out with little to no pain, while others find relief after multiple treatments. The most common side effects are soreness and muscle and joint aches, especially within the first 24 hours.
Chiropractic: Do I have to receive an adjustment with a chiropractic treatment?
No, you do not. If you are not comfortable with getting adjusted, that is fine! Often times, a chiropractor will use several other techniques to help relieve pain in the area of complaint, not just adjustments. We use other techniques that include mobilizations, soft tissue therapy, ultrasound therapy, IFC, instrument-assisted soft tissue therapy, and exercise rehabilitation at our multidisciplinary clinic.
Do you work with ICBC, MSP, and WorksafeBC claims?
Yes, we work with MSP, ICBC and WorksafeBC claims for chiropractic. Dr. Minh is the only chiropractor to take on WorkSafeBC patients. We do accept ICBC for physiotherapy and chiropractic. At the moment, we do not take ICBC or WorkSafeBC claims for RMT massage therapy.
