This guy is a God. I've not been able to lift my arm higher than my shoulder for 4+ months now…read more I've been to at least 5 physio sessions elsewhere that were nearly an hour long each, where did all sorts of things like poke needles into my shoulder and put electricity into it, put pads on my shoulder and put electricity through it, ultrasound it, warm it, etc. and it honestly made no difference. 15 mins with this guy, I CAN LIFT MY ARM. It still hurts but I don't feel like I ever need anybody else for all my body problems. Thank you!! They REALLY want you to be on time since they book a lot of appointments back to back. Do not be late (in fact show up 10 mins early) or you will be hated.

A friend from my dance studio recommended Dr. Shimizu for the longest time and I finally had the chance to go see him today. Dr. Shimizu was very informative about my symptoms and what types of treatments he will do to help me re-align my back and hips. He was also very caring since I told him I am afraid of the chiro treatment in general. He was gentle during the treatment but yet effective. I highly recommend Dr. Shimizu, and no wonder my friend always says good stuff about him, now I know why. I've already got my next treatment booked.

My back & neck problems have been so severe that I ended up in ER a few times. I have seen several chiropractors in the past and must say he is the BEST! Dr. Liang has an easy going manner and provides you detailed information on his diagnoses. He does not pressure you on coming back for several visit unlike other chiropractors that I have seen in the past that have informed me that I need to come back at least 8 times to fix my problem during the first visit. Depending on the severity of my alignment, Dr. Liang tells me to come back when needed. Normally, after 2-3 visits I feel back to "normal". I was talking to a nurse during my pregnancy and have told her that I was seeing a chiropractor throughout my pregnancy. We were comparing our chiropractors. She said that she has a really good chiropractor too and he is located in Kits. I told her mine did too. At the end, we were both talking about Dr. Liang. I have referred Dr. Liang to some of my co-workers and friends and they say the same thing, "he is the BEST!".

Dr. Nigel on the other hand has a thorough understanding of what exactly is causing the issue, and is able to physically address it.

I highly recommend him.

I had a tough injury to deal with and through ART sessions with him I'm actually seeing improvement which is amazing to me because I didn't think I could get better without drastic surgeries. I am very happy to see the improvements I have thus far. I've still got a long road ahead of me, but I'm so happy to be having treatments that actually work! Dr. Nielsen is very kind and a pleasure to work with. I'm always cautious of people working on me with a condition so complex, but he knew just what to do and how to handle my injured areas. He's very knowledgeable and very personable to boot. I feel like I'm in very good hands with him. Though you always wish you met good people under better circumstances, I look forward to future treatments here!

She was very professional, and not chatty during the massage (which I like). Aromatherapy was great and the pressure was deep enough for me. Also appreciate the little things, like she sets up a towel/bathmat for when you get off the bed - I usually hate having to step on cold & dirty floor after - so that was very considerate. This time she gave me a handmade soap (made by her) for the holidays (and it smells so good)! Can't wait for my next appointment.

Only AFTER the family session would you finally get treated so that would be three sessions until they start working on you. It was my first chiropractor experience and upon discussion with others, it seemed like this approach is specific to the clinic and not all chiropractors. For someone who was in pain and wanted immediate attention as opposed to waiting three sessions before getting treatment, their approach was not what I was looking for.

I feel very fortunate to have found this clinic and Dr. Alfredo after my previous chiropractor retired. I have been to several chiropractors over three decades, and Dr. Alfredo stands out as the best of all of them! He is an excellent chiropractor with a high level of skill and professionalism, and he immediately understood my condition and the precise amount of adjusting force required to correct it. Other practitioners have tended to use too much force when adjusting my small frame the first time, often leaving me quite sore, but I am very happy with the treatments I have received from Dr. Alfredo, which we very comfortable and have completely alleviated my symptoms. One of the best things about this practice is the fact that they have the ability to do x-rays in the office, which is unusual in my experience, and greatly appreciated, because it saved me a trip to get the x-rays done at another facility. I also find their fees to be quite reasonable. The only downside to the would be the cost of parking at the Bentall Centre, which can be a few dollars to over $15 depending on the length of the appointment. It would be nice if parking validations or at least a discount of some sort were provided for those patients for whom parking costs would be a burden.

After reconstructive shoulder surgery, I went to physio at UBC Sports Medicine. My doctor told me…read morenot to do any type of sports or physical training other than what he recommended, and that it would take a year before I could do anything strenuous or risky, like snowboarding. Against my doctor's recommendation I went for an initial consult at Crossfit Vancouver, where I wanted to start training. My coach there told me to go see Dr. Cleland and combine that with a tailored Crossfit training program. Dr. Cleland was great - very personable and understanding of my surgery and fitness goals. He explained everything he was doing to me so that I could understand, instead of in gobbledeegook doctorspeak. While the procedures were extremely painful (he was working on my fascial tissue and deep muscle scars) they worked. I was able to excel at my fitness training almost immediately, and my range of motion was improved significantly. When I returned to Boston for the one year follow-up with my surgeon, I was told that I had recovered in record time and achieved a range of motion not usually possible after a surgery like mine. Thanks Cleland!

Although x-rays and ultrasound showed I had no injury, or impingement, my arm was almost dead. They told me it was adhesive capsulitis, or "Frozen Shoulder." I had shooting pain in my shoulder, and the slightest jarring would send me through the roof. I was in extreme pain and nothing seemed to help. I tried acupuncture, massage, cortisone shots, drugs and although each offered a little relief, nothing helped for long. Then a friend told me about Trigenics and Dr. Richard Cleland. I started going to the clinic in late November 2011 and on my first visit I was able to lift my arm over my head. Something I hadn't done in months. Although the treatment is painful, the results can't be argued with. I've been been in treatment for 5 months and I've regained 95% of my strength and mobility. If you've been told you have a frozen shoulder, I highly recommend you call Synergy Chiropractic. Don't wait two years, or longer for your frozen shoulder to go away. See Dr. Cleland, and start getting well today.
