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 highly and enthusiastically recommend this outstanding chiropractic clinic, which provides very…read morefriendly and efficient service in downtown Vancouver. 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.

First, the receptionist was nice enough to accept me at the last minute, only 40 minutes before closing time knowing that she would have to stay after her usual closing time (I was a first-time customer). I had a slightly displaced rib that was causing me pain and restricting my breathing. It was turned into an emergency because I had to leave Canada to visit my family for two weeks! The chiropractor was not there but the massage therapist said she would try her best to massage and stretch the rib back in place. I was impressed that after a very relaxing and efficient 45-minute massage I felt no more pain and my rib was back in place! She is very cautious about not hurting you when massaging and has a very calm and focused attitude. I only wish they were a little cheaper or a least make my $20 reimbursement procedures easier. I ended up paying $75 from my own pocket and still don't know when I will get my $20 back from my MSP.

I believe this is the first location before the Front Street one. It expanded several years ago and…read morenow it has more treatment rooms plus two bathrooms. I also like how it has a glass door (wave to open) to separate the treatment areas from the reception waiting area. This place is where you can get massage therapy and acupuncture treatments. Each room is relaxing with tranquil or spa music being played (playlist is dependent on each practitioner). There is a basket to put your clothes and phone in the acupuncture treatment room. I see Dr Koh for acupuncture and she is wonderful. Very caring and she listens to your concern. In the past, I dislike needles so she usually uses baby needles or does more cupping on me. Now I still dislike needles but can tolerate them more, so I think she uses the regular needles on me now. Besides just cupping and acupuncture, she is a TCM, so she also takes my pulse to check how my organs/body are doing. She has suggested taking supplements and medicinal tea or avoiding certain food to help with the ailments. The front desk staff is always very friendly. Paid street parking out front. Sometimes I park at Anvil Center if there is no spots and walk across.

I've since seen several different RMTs here, and have been pleased with the results each time. I usually go for basic maintenance; my hips have a tendency to become misaligned, and I've been properly re-adjusted every time. Last year I strained my achilles tendon, and the RMTs at Tonume definitely helped to speed up my recovery. They were also life-savers after I had surgery on my wrist this past summer. I had to do everything with my non-dominant hand/arm, and those poor muscles were not used to all the stress. I don't know what I would have done without regular massages on my arm and back then! I've also gone just to get some quiet relaxation time in. Some of the RMTs are a bit chatty, but I find if I mention I would like to relax when I'm booking an appointment, they are a bit quieter once the massage has started. It used to be fairly easy to just walk in or call and get an appointment with very short notice. In the past few months I've found it's gotten a lot more difficult to book, so be sure to book in advance (especially towards the end of the year when everyone is trying to use up their benefits). They do have an online booking system, which is usually handy, but it did fail on me once, which made for a particularly disappointing afternoon when I showed up only to find I didn't actually have an appointment. Be sure to double check!
