All About Chiropractic
Our downtown New Westminster chiropractic clinic provides services to patients on the Columbia Street corridor and surrounding New Westminster, Queensborough, Coquitlam, Surrey, Burnaby and Vancouver communities. Here at Columbia Integrated Health Centre, we know that imbalance and dis-ease manifest themselves in many forms, most notably, the symptom of pain. With this in mind, your health team, led by Doctor of Chiropractic and Clinic Director, Dr. John Dang, are well trained in a broad spectrum of techniques and protocols to assess and treat such conditions properly. In addition, everyone can benefit by including Chiropractic treatment as part of their health plan, including pediatrics & children, seniors and geriatrics, and pre and post-natal moms.
Chiropractic Treatment
Many people will notice an improvement in their symptoms immediately after a chiropractic adjustment. However, in others, the benefits are realized as treatment progresses. To help patients attain their health and wellness potential, Dr. Dang, DC, MSc, Dr. Shaun Lemke, DC, Dr. Alex Lee, DC and Dr. Jacob Stetz, DC, can design a specific program that includes exercise, ergonomic, and nutritional counselling. Some common conditions that Chiropractic can help with may include Neck pain, Shoulder pain, Low Back pain, Hip pain, Knee pain, Shoulder pain and Frozen shoulder pain. Also, our clinicians have had success in treating various forms of Headaches, Plantar Fasciitis, and most conditions associated with the musculoskeletal system.
Your initial consultation consists of a 40-minute thorough examination and assessment of your primary areas of concern and a complete discussion of the relevant personal and family history. Each subsequent visit (treatment) is a minimum of 20 mins, where we revisit your area of complaint, reassess your condition, track your progress and adapt the treatment accordingly. Your Chiropractor will ensure that you receive the most attention and benefit from each visit.
In this ever-changing healthcare system, all health practitioners must work together to ensure that patients receive the proper care at the appropriate time. Our Chiropractors work with your family doctors, Physiotherapists, Massage therapists, and other allied health professionals to properly assess and, if necessary, co-manage your treatments.
If you are interested in whether or not our clinic can help from a Chiropractic standpoint or have any questions related to your health, please feel free to speak to any one of our Doctors of Chiropractic today!
