What is chiropractic care and how can it help me?

A Chiropractor is a spine, muscle, and nervous system expert. They provide qualified, effective treatment to relieve pain and improve the way your body moves, without medication or surgery. Common techniques include manual 'hands-on' therapy, including adjustments, soft tissue therapy, exercises, education, and lifestyle advice to help you achieve your health goals.

Is chiropractic care covered by Medical Services Plan (MSP) in BC?

In British Columbia, MSP provides partial coverage for chiropractic services. This typically includes a set number of visits per year, often with a co-payment, for eligible individuals such as those on Premium Assistance or with low income. It is important to verify your eligibility and coverage details directly with MSP and consult your private insurance provider for additional coverage options.

Is it safe to see a chiropractor if I'm pregnant?

Chiropractic care during pregnancy is generally considered safe and can be very effective for managing common musculoskeletal complaints such as back pain, pelvic girdle pain, and sciatica. Chiropractors are trained to work with pregnant women and use modified adjustment techniques and specialized tables or pillows to ensure the comfort and safety of both mother and baby. Some chiropractors, like Dr. Cagdan, are also certified in the Webster Technique, a specific chiropractic analysis and adjustment for pregnant women.

Do I need a doctor's referral to see a Chiropractor in BC?

No, chiropractors are primary contact healthcare professionals in BC. Patients can book an appointment directly without a referral. However, some private or extended health insurance plans may require a doctor’s referral for reimbursement purposes, so it's advisable to check your insurance policy.

How can I tell if chiropractic care is right for me?

If you are experiencing pain, stiffness, or dysfunction related to your spine, muscles, joints, or nerves—such as back pain, neck pain, headaches, or extremity joint problems—chiropractic care could be very beneficial. Scheduling an initial consultation allows the Chiropractor to assess your condition and discuss tailored treatment options.

What are the typical phases of chiropractic care?

Chiropractic care often involves stages. First, relief care aims to get you out of pain. Next, corrective care focuses on addressing the root cause and improving function. Finally, maintenance or wellness care helps sustain health and prevent future issues, similar to regular dental check-ups.
