Happy New Year! We wish you all a happy and healthy 2025.

Please note that as of February 15, 2025 you will see a slight increase ($5.00) to our massage therapy fees. We have increased our fees to bring our fees for service in alignment with the industry/local standard. We have always been below this mark with many clinics around us charging higher rates in addition to GST. We have always included GST in our massage prices and will continue to do that. We believe in the quality of service we provide to our patients and clients and we appreciate your loyalty and understanding.

We are no longer accepting any NEW ICBC/WCB clients or claims. Please reach out to our clinic and we will happily refer you to clinics that offer this service.

Chiropractic is a drug-free, non-invasive manual approach to health care. Chiropractors must have an undergraduate degree prior to attending Chiropractic College. Their training consists of four intensive years of chiropractic education, which includes a one year internship under the guidance of a senior clinician where they develop and refine their skills. Chiropractors assess disorders related to the spine, nervous system and joins of the extremities and provide diagnosis, treatment and prevention of those disorders. The primary goal of chiropractic manipulation, also referred to an an adjustment, is to treat areas of decreased movement in the joints of the spine and extremities which can create a reaction in surrounding soft tissues (ligaments, muscles and nerves) resulting in pain, dysfunction and muscular spasm. Dr. Mandy utilizes the following modalities in her treatments: Spinal Manipulative Therapy (SMT)/Adjustments, Soft Tissue Therapy, Kinesio Taping ®, Thumper®, Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS), Pre and Post-natal Chiropractic, Webster Technique, and Custom Fitted Orthotics.
