They will reimburse your parking if you spend a minimum of $10 on their in-store purchases.

It’s best to call us (604-875-8695) or contact us via our contact form so we can check inventory and arrange for the best time/date for you to come into the clinic and pick up.

Contraindication to MLD: 

• We cannot treat congestive heart failure with MLD. The heart cannot process the regular amount of fluid and MLD would send more fluid which would further congest it. However we can use segmental effleurage safely for this condition.
• Untreated bacterial infections
• Untreated acute shingles
