The services offered at Mountain View Health and Wellness include chiropractic care through acupuncture, dry needling, soft tissue manipulation, laser treatment and shockwave therapy; sports injury treatment and prevention; and accident injury care. Each patient is fully assessed so a personalised routine of care can be developed and delivered. Care includes not only the issue at hand, but ways to prevent further damage, build strength and chart a course for long-term wellness. The doctors work with the treatment prescribed by each patient’s family doctor, knowing that all disciplines working together achieve the fastest and longest lasting results for patients.
Yet, through all of this, the team admits they “don’t take themselves to seriously.” Does this mean the care is not up to par? Not in the least! It means they know that life comes with a fair share of ups and downs and sometimes those ups and downs are car accidents, sports injuries or degenerative muscle/bone diseases. But life also comes with ways to get you back on your feet, moving well and becoming pain free. They take their work very seriously but always focus on the silver linings and the optimism in life.
When pain gets you down or injuries limit your mobility, choose Mountain View Health and Wellness. The experience and the bright outlook of the doctors will have you back on your feet as quickly as possible. Learn more online, on Instagram and on Facebook.
