We are very excited to announce that we are now offering Acupuncture services with Sydney Evans, R.Ac.
Sydney has always been a sports enthusiast who enjoys all things outdoors such as soccer, snowboarding, baseball, and hiking. Her passion for an active lifestyle has led her down a path of learning and discovering how the human body works physically and mentally, especially when related to injury or pain.
As an acupuncturist, Sydney loves that she gets to work one on one with each individual to develop a treatment plan that is designed specifically for them. She is continually learning and finding ways to expand her training to further assist people on their health journeys.
Sydney is excited to be working alongside our team - focusing on providing the best possible care for each individual.
Acupuncture is covered under most extended health benefit plans as well as recognized and used for WCB and ICBC claims.

We are delighted to have Jane Byers doing a reading at the clinic on May 11 at 7pm from her new work that is actually about "work". 30 years of being an ergonomist has left her with a few stories to tell, which is what she’s doing in her forthcoming book called, "Work To Live" (Caitlin Press, 2024).
Nelson folks will get to have a sneak peak of some of the essays and poems in the book. Consider it professional development as we all deal with injured workers.
Bike season is here! We are excited to announce that the clinic is now offering fully custom bike fitting services.
Our Physio Raphael just completed his bike PT course, the only bike fitting course explicitly designed for physiotherapists. He will be able to find the perfect fit for your bike, giving you comfort and performance!
No matter which two wheel weapon you chose he can fit it to your needs.
The service can be claimed under extended health benefits, call or email us today for more information or to book an appointment!
