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!

In August of 2011 I began to have problems with my shoulder. By the end of September I couldn't…read morelift my arm. 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.

A few friends found this clinic and raved about both Dr.Campbell and Dr.Nelson, so putting my fears aside- I made an appointment - back in 1994. Dr.Nelson is incredibly gentle, but firm and does very effective adjustments to my lower back, neck, and jaw. I have seen other chiropractors in other cities, and I will say Nelson Chiropractic is by far superior to any other clinic I have been to. His adjustments stay in place longer, and he is far more thorough in going through all my joints- feet and elbows included! I cannot recommend this practice highly enough- he has improved my mobility and all over physical well being so much. My only regret is not seeing a chiropractor sooner.

After…read moretrying many different spas and facials as well as several high end skin care lines I still wasn't happy with my dull, blotchy and congested skin. Since I've started going to SKN I've had a few different facials and have made the gradual switch to using most of their facial products line. The facials immediately made my skin feel so much better, moisturized and smooth. I enjoy the calming and peacefulness of the treatment rooms and the professionalism of the staff. I'm sure they're all great but Danielle is my favourite; so knowledgeable, professional, kind and really listens to try and figure out what is best for you. She was able to diagnose and start treating the part of my facial skin I disliked the most right away (melasma discolored skin due to sun/hormones). I am genuinely happy with my skin now. The goal in my mind when I went there was to eventually feel comfortable going without makeup on any given day - mission accomplished! It's no longer something I think about besides when I'm using my products and feeling thankful for them and the hard work they do. I should note one of the things that impressed me the most about SKN was the lack of pressure to buy products. During facials they inquire as to what you use on your skin and appear to try to work with what you've got but suggest a few small changes. I also left my first facial with several samples, which was very helpful as I could see if it was a routine that worked for me (it totally did, very easy). I've also tried their laser hair removal and highly recommend it, minimally painful and again, professional and thorough. Given the quality of the technicians, space, products, service and overall experience I find that their prices are reasonable. They also have an online product store now (pick up or have it delivered) and they seem to have monthly specials on products and services. If you're unhappy with your skin and ready to do something about it please don't wait any longer - just make an appointment. Thanks to the crew at SKN and keep up the great work!
