ACUPUNCTURE & IMS DRY NEEDLING IN NORTH BURNABY
Why clients in North Burnaby choose us.
North Burnaby offers both Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture (by a Registered Acupuncturist, CCHPBC-licensed) and physiotherapist-delivered IMS dry needling. The needles are similar; the reasoning behind their placement is different.
Most clients land here for chronic neck and shoulder tension, persistent low-back pain, plantar fasciitis, tension headaches, sleep disruption, or post-MVA presentations. We pick the modality that fits the assessment.
Both modalities in-house means we can switch tools without sending you to a separate clinic.
