Our comment from PhysioFinder.net about Adapt Spine Centre:
A Deeply Personalized and Transparent Approach
At Adapt Spine Centre, the patient experience is defined by a commitment to thorough diagnostics and genuine empathy. Patients frequently highlight how the team makes them feel truly heard, contrasting the clinic's compassionate style with previous negative medical experiences. Dr. Antony (Li-Fong) Lin and his colleagues take the time to explain conditions in detail, often using on-site X-rays to show patients exactly what is happening in their spine. This transparency helps build trust, allowing individuals to understand their treatment plan and actively participate in their recovery rather than feeling like a passive recipient of care.
Specialized Gonstead Chiropractic Care
The clinic is renowned for its mastery of the Gonstead method, a precise and systematic approach to chiropractic adjustment that prioritizes specificity over guesswork. Reviews consistently praise the clinical team for their ability to identify the root cause of pain through advanced testing and thermal imaging, rather than just treating symptoms. Patients report that this high level of technical skill results in effective adjustments that provide significant relief, particularly for complex issues such as herniated discs, sciatica, and chronic nerve impingements. The focus is on correcting structural misalignments to allow the body's natural healing processes to function optimally.
Comprehensive Diagnostic Technology
One of the standout features of Adapt Spine Centre is its integration of state-of-the-art diagnostic tools within the practice. Patients appreciate the availability of on-site X-ray services and other measurement devices that provide a comprehensive view of their spinal health. This technological advantage allows the chiropractors to track progress objectively, reviewing data and visual reports with patients at every stage. The combination of modern equipment with traditional therapeutic techniques ensures that the care provided is both evidence-based and tailored to the individual's unique physiological needs.
Welcoming Environment and Dedicated Team
Beyond the clinical expertise, the atmosphere at the clinic is frequently described as warm, modern, and inviting. The front desk staff, including members like Sabrina and Leigh, are highlighted for their kindness and ability to create a supportive environment from the moment a patient arrives. Whether treating long-term conditions, acute injuries, or providing maintenance care, the entire team works together to ensure patients feel comfortable and valued. This holistic dedication to service, combined with the clinical excellence of Dr. Lin, makes Adapt Spine Centre a highly recommended destination for spinal health in the region.

Fantastic experience: It’s unbelievable how educational, insightful and talented Dr. Antony is. I’ve never been paid attention to with such a high level of care like he did with me during my exam. I was looking for a Gonstead chiropractor here in BC and he absolutely does the name justice! You would be lucky to have him as your chiropractor and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to my own family and friends. Thank you SO much Dr. Antony and also to Leigh at the front desk for being so welcoming and kind!
We thank you for the kind words! We wish you the best of luck on your health journey and hope we provided some good insight on your spinal health.

Fantastic experience: I was in need of a Chiropractor while traveling and I have to say very thorough, very personable, very knowledgeable and in general, I would recommend highly for anyone whether you live here and need regular adjustments or whether you’re traveling and have the need for something in the moment.
Thank you for the kind words Brian, we hope you have a wonderful trip back home, thank you for trusting us with your health!

Fantastic experience: I've had a great experience with Dr. Eric Park. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and takes the time to explain everything in detail so you fully understand your condition and treatment plan. His approach is thorough yet friendly, and he always makes me feel comfortable during appointments. He also summarizes what was treated at the end of each session. The clinic also has X-ray on site and create a treatment plan that's personalized to your needs. Great chiropractor and a great experience overall
Thank you for the kind review Jennifer. It is a pleasure to serve you! We look forward to your continued improvement on your health journey!

Fantastic experience: After reading the other glowing reviews, I decided I needed to be a. 'brave girl'( age 63) and let Dr Antony take a look at my sore neck, left side weakness and migraine. Over the years most doctors just smile gently and offer me meds...not my choice since I am an active swim/bike/run/row type of person. So glad I made the appt, forced myself to go and gave this amazing clinic a chance. First appt was so reassuring, supportive, informative and I truly felt 'heard' and cared for. The testing was explained perfectly, not rushed and results were reviewed in real time. Very comprehensive. Worth every single penny. And although I went in with white coat apprehension,I find myself looking forward to my next appt because I KNOW I will be in good hands. The office is clean, welcoming and efficient. Sabrina was so kind and caring...and Dr Antony was top notch. Highly recommended and I hope to have multiple appts over the next month's or hopefully years. Thank you so much Adapt spine team✨
Thank you for the kind review. we are truly grateful for the patients that trust us with their health and we don't take that trust lightly! We will do our best to serve and be a part of your healing journey!

Fantastic experience: I injured my lower back while working and visited Adapt Spine Centre for the first time. Since it was my first chiropractic experience, I was a bit nervous, but Dr. Eric Park made everything easy. He quickly identified the root cause of my pain and provided very detailed and sincere treatments. I was impressed by his professionalism and kindness. Thanks to his dedicated care, I’m recovering much faster than expected. If you are looking for a trustworthy chiropractor in Burnaby, I highly recommend Dr. Park!"

Fantastic experience: I’ve been seeing Dr. Antony (Li-Fong) Lin at AdaptSpine since 2023, during a period where I wasn’t paying enough attention to my health. That’s when I first discovered how serious my lower back disc herniation had become. I didn’t even realize chiropractors could perform X-rays, but AdaptSpine handled the imaging right on-site, which made diagnosis fast and accurate. By March 2025, my lower back pain reached its worst stage — I could barely stand up or walk. Working from home for so long had caused me to forget to move, walk, or take proper care of myself, and it all caught up to me. Even catching a bus or making a small sudden movement felt like my knees would give out. Because Dr. Lin has consistently been my chiropractor, he immediately put me on a focused treatment plan, seeing me twice a week at the beginning. That plan changed everything. Within a short period, I regained mobility, strength, and confidence. Two years later, my follow-up X-ray showed that my lower back issue had stabilized, and today I only visit once a month for maintenance adjustments. His treatment approach and health advice have been consistently practical, clear, and genuinely helpful. If you’re struggling with lower back problems, disc herniation, or chronic pain, I strongly recommend Dr. Antony (Li-Fong) Lin at AdaptSpine. His professionalism, care, and results speak for themselves. Ask for the XRAY!
Thank you for the kind review! We are honored to help and so glad to see you through your health transformation!

Fantastic experience: Adapt Spine Centre is an exceptional clinic that stands out for its expertise and care. The space itself is beautifully designed, creating a welcoming and calming environment. Dr. Antony is incredibly skilled and insightful—I gain valuable knowledge during every session, and he provides practical exercises I can do at home to support my progress. I initially came in with leg pain and frequent migraines, and since my very first session, the leg pain has completely subsided, and my migraines have become far less frequent. It has been a transformative experience for my overall well-being. The entire team, including Sabrina and Leigh, is kind, professional, and attentive, contributing to the clinic’s outstanding service. If you’re looking for a place that truly cares about your recovery and equips you with the tools for long-term improvement, I highly recommend Adapt Spine Centre.
Thank you kindly for the review! We are so glad we could help, and look forward to your continued improvement with Gonstead Chiropractic care!

Fantastic experience: I usually have my appointments in the morning and they have always been on time. Dr. Antony Lin is professional, offers great advices, and the adjustments are quick and effective. The office is clean and orderly. The receptionists are amazing and professional. I have been going for just about a year now and can see visible improvements in my spine. Thank you so much for the great work, Dr. Lin and Team!

Thank you for the kind review!
- The Adapt Spine Team
Fantastic experience: I have been regularly going to Adapt Spine for treatment after a "minor" bike collision with a car in January that triggered a slew of painful symptoms in some areas, and a loss of function/numbness in other areas. I was very scared and frustrated because the handful of doctors I looked to for support just told me I was too young to experience these symptoms (as if saying that would make the symptoms stop). Dr. Antony was able to do x-rays and take readings from handheld devices to determine the source of the issues. Results vary person to person but for me, being able to see the progress was very mentally significant and despite recovery being a process which has regressed sometimes, I am at an incredibly improved state now from January. From being unable to sit without my legs going completely numb to walking 5km each day with my dog again is something I can’t say thank you enough for. Dr. Antony was also able to work with me through constraints and support me with recovery as I figured out other aspects of my life. The level of care and compassion is from both Dr. Antony as well as his staff Leigh and Sabrina is something I don’t have any other medical experience that compares to. I highly recommend Adapt Spine and will be continuing to come here for my treatment as my recovery benefits from it. Thank you so much! Original review: After years of medical neglect and gaslighting by other doctors and medical staff, Adapt Spine and Dr. Antony have made me feel heard and supported. During the intake appointment, the vindication and appreciation I feel now seeing exam results and data that align with physical symptoms I’ve been dealing with for my entire adult life makes me feel hopeful that I will be able to eventually become painless again. For the initial stage of appointments, I have consistently felt that there’s been an overall improvement in my pain and symptoms and the staff have treated me with the highest respect and quality. It’s important to understand that healing isn’t linear and with that mindset, I’ve had a very positive experience. I recently finished the first phase of three for their process.
Thank you very much for sharing your updates! This greatly helps people find the care they need!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Antony truly cares about his patience. He takes time to ask how things have been since the last visit. After the adjustment, if he can, he will go the extra mile to help address any other concerns his patients have. Beyond his professional side, he's a real wholesome individual. It doesn't take much to see his love for his family and his staff and that all spills over to the care he gives to his patients. Staff are great; office is always clean and welcoming. Glad I took a chance in coming here. Very pleased
Thank you for your generous feedback! It’s great to hear that our dedication to our patients shines through in your visits. Our team works hard to maintain a clean, welcoming office and to provide the best Gonstead Chiropractic care possible. We appreciate your trust in us and are delighted to have you as part of our patient family.

Fantastic experience: As a pregnant woman seeking relief from discomfort, I recently visited Adapt Spine Centre and had the pleasure of being treated by Dr. Antony. From the moment I stepped into the clinic, I was impressed by the welcoming atmosphere and the comfortable environment, which provided a sense of relaxation during my appointments. Dr. Antony took the time to thoroughly examine my condition and discuss my concerns with me. Although I have visited many different chiropractic clinics in Vancouver, I have never seen such exceptional attention to detail in analyzing the body's condition. His personalized approach instilled confidence in me from the start, especially during such a sensitive time. During my treatment sessions, he provided gentle and effective adjustments that significantly alleviated my discomfort. Thanks to Dr. Antony, I feel better than ever and am grateful for the exceptional care I received during my pregnancy journey. I highly recommend Adapt Spine Centre to any expectant mothers seeking professional chiropractic care in a welcoming and comfortable environment.
Thank you so much for your kind review, it means a lot! We hope that those that are seeking care with their pregnancy journey can find help through your thoughtful review!

Fantastic experience: I've been coming to Adapt Spine for my headache/neck/back pain about 2 months now, did my re-exam today and made major improvements, so far I'm feeling a lot better with less pain and been getting better sleeps. Dr Anthony is very professional, knowledgeable and caring, he performed x-ray and tests to find out the root cause of my problem and thoroughly explained the report then treated me with precise adjustments. I highly recommend this place to anyone who is experiencing pain. Front desk girls are super friendly too!
Thank you for the kind review! We are so happy to be with you on your healing journey with precise chiropractic care!

Fantastic experience: I went to see Dr Lin after breaking my T6/T7 vertebrae and he was extremely thorough in his diagnostics, assessment and treatment of me. He communicated his findings clearly and made it easy for me to see (xrays and charts) and understand my condition. And after just one treatment I had at least an 80% reduction in pain. I've continued to see Dr Lin throughout the healing process and feel that without his help, it would have taken significantly longer to heal and would have been considerably more painful.
Thank you for the kind review! We are so happy about your recovery and continued improvement! Thank you for sharing your message so others can find the same help!
- The Adapt Spine Team
Fantastic experience: I was in very good hands with Dr. Antony. His office has the most state-of-the-art devices to properly measure and diagnose my issues. No more guesswork and Dr. Antony explained very clearly about my issues ! I am fairly sure he adjusted his office hours to accommodate my visit time because I traveled from Langley after work. I really appreciate his thoughtfulness. All his colleagues by the front are super friendly and professional. My pain level has definitely been reduced significantly. I recommend him wholeheartedly. Thank you, Dr. Antony !

Fantastic experience: One of the best adjustments I’ve ever received was from Dr. Antony. I don’t live in the Vancouver area, but I visit the PNW quite often and I always make sure to stop by his office for an amazing adjustment.

- The Adapt Spine Team
Fantastic experience: Not your typical chiropractor. Dr. Lin goes the extra mile when assessing your needs by doing thorough exams with an X-ray and other tools. He shows you the problem areas before he starts adjusting. I have had chiros that miss when adjusting. He is very precise and doesn’t miss. I recommend him to anyone experiencing back problems.
Thank you for the kind review! We are so glad we could serve you with Gonstead Chiropractic!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Anthony is the most kindest, patient, and understanding doctor I've ever had. He was able to see me almost right away and went out of his way to accommodate me for an acute injury I sustained while at work. He sat while I cried in pain, explained what was happening and what he was doing to treat it, didn't rush our time together, and genuinely cared. I wish all doctors were like him. If you have an acute injury or are just seeking treatment for old injuries or maintenance I hands down recommend him. Best ever! I also need to give a shout out to his receptionist ( don't remember her name) but she also was super helpful. She helped me take off my shirt to change and tied my hair up for me. Thank you!
Thank you for the kind review! We look forward to continuing your journey to a healthier spine with Gonstead chiropractic care!

Fantastic experience: Dr. Antony has fixed my kinked and locked spine which I've had for decades from old motorcycle crashes and mountain bike crashes. Though other broken bones healed I never thought to check my spine after my recoveries. So when a random lower back spasm got me seeking and receiving some massage therapy, it was also suggested by the RT that i try some chiropractic sessions because she could feel i had some locked ribs. well lucky for me the Adapt Spine Clinic was right across the street. When I was given the rundown by his lovely front desk person of how before even the first manipulation, X-rays are taken and also thermal of the spine to find inflammation and muscle spasming detection tests and heart rate evaluation to help get the bigger picture. Well I was sold on X-rays because back in the mid or late 90's when I seeked out some chiropractic therapy I also asked the doctor then, "Don't you need to take an X-ray ?". The answer was, "No not necessary.". Well I thought "That's just bloody guesswork then.". So after that I never held much faith in the practice. As time went on I'd hear good and bad testimonials about Chiros so I thought well its hit or miss to get a good one. So skeptical, but willing to give it another try, I walked into the place and it rang true to my ears when I heard X-ray. Then after having the Gonstead holistic approach to chiropractic therapy by Dr. Antony explained to me about what each test is looking for and that those symptoms are indication of acute issues in that area, it sounded even better. So we started on my plan and now a few months in and multiple manipulations later I can say I feel like my spine can turn and twist like normal, and my walk and stepping is like I remember when I was a very young man. I'm 58 yrs old now. I'm not fully perfect yet. My re-assessment has shown great big improvement, which I knew it would show because I definitely feel the difference. So my highest rating goes to Dr. Antony and his lovely smiling staff at his Adapt Spine Clinic, and of the Gonstead Chiropractic method of analysis and treatment. Edward Weiszbeck

Fantastic experience: I came to see Dr. Antony a year ago after being “scammed” by my chiropractor before, who essentially spent a year putting my back in the wrong place. Me and my family travelled from kelowna and after our first visit we already knew he was impeccable at his job, and knows the Gonstead method like no other. i came due to severe nerve pain in my leg, and on the x-rays, Dr. Antony found a torn ligament in my neck along with a few other things that only took him a few appointments to correct. The leg pain has completely gone away since. He has been the most understanding about our 4 hour commute and shows a lot of respect to me and my family, never making us feel like our pain is something we should get used to living with. I fell down the stairs one day and he assured me that whichever day i could drive down, he would find a way treat me even tho there were no more appointments available that day, and he did. Same when someone rear ended me a few weeks later. Over the last year we brought family friends from France as well who got the same level of respect from the team and saw major improvements in their health after the first appointment. I wanted to send the biggest thank you to the Adapt Spine team from the ladies at the front who always make me laugh after the long drive, to the beautiful family running it, thank you!
Thank you so much for the kind words! It really has been a true honour to serve you and your family and friends! You all come a very long way, and we are so glad that we could help you all out. The pleasure is all ours!

Fantastic experience: So much to say about this clinic! Dr. Antony does a fantastic job at explaining everything thoroughly so I can truly understand what's going on. I've gone to a couple chiropractors before and none of them compare to the amount of transparency and professionalism I received from Adapt Spine Centre. I finally feel like a part of the process. I can visually see through my exams and x-rays that I'm heading in the right direction instead of guessing. Thanks so much Dr. Antony for all your hard work!

- The Adapt Spine Team
Fantastic experience: I came into the clinic with some spectacular lower back pain and shooting pains in my right buttock that made it challenging to sit anywhere for very long, sleeping positions were limited and I was just just so tired of being in pain. I'm lucky that he's in my neighbourhood and came up in a search. I was deeply impressed by the Gonstead method when reading about it. You want to take xrays and actually SEE what my spine looks like?! Also- before each treatment you get into a gown so the Dr. can actually SEE and FEEL your spine! TOTALLY makes sense to me! Dr. Antony took the time to listen to my health concerns without judgment about my age or weight, something which I am SO deeply thankful for. After taking a look at my xrays and other tests, he came up with a plan (newsflash- months of pain will not disappear with a couple of adjustments) and we started my treatment. It's a commitment both in time and money but SO worth it. I'm now 3/4 done and I have so much less pain! My bulging disc has calmed down and I have no doubt it will continue to get better with Dr. Antony's help. The office is beautiful and the staff are all super kind and friendly. I can't say enough good things about Dr. Antony and his team. He is kind, professional, compassionate and knows his stuff. Chiro isn't normally in my wheel house of well being services but it will definitely be now. THANK YOU!
Thank you for the kind words Catherine! We are so glad you are enjoying the experience so far! Here’s to your health!

Fantastic experience: 8 weeks ago I was completely debilitated due to a bulged disc in my lower back. I was experiencing 10/10 sciatic nerve pain. I could not walk, stand or sit without excruciating pain in my back, leg and sciatic nerve. Dr Antony Lin, is very specific with his treatment and has taken the time to ensure that I have been alleviated from my back and sciatic pain in record time. Typically without treatment it is a 6 week process to being able to do basic movements, after the first weekend, I was well on to my road to recovery, see below for my timeline of recovery. Timeline : Day 1-5 - unable to walk or stand or even lie without pain. Received treatment every day. At the end of day 3 I could walk with less sciatic pain. Week 1-2 - able to walk with minor discomfort, needed to take lots of breaks to lie down and sit. At the end of week 2 I was in a wedding party and needed to emcee. Manage to do so with minimal pain. Week 3-4 - seeing Dr Lin twice a week. Bulge disc is recovering and pressure is coming off of the nerve. Able to walk pain free. Swung golf club for the first time in almost a month. Sciatic pain occurs when standing and sitting for too long. Week 5-6 - treatment schedule is the same as above. Walked my first pitch and putt round (4km) . Ok to golf via power cart . Starting regular walks and pilates to help strengthen glutes and back. Pain occurs when sitting too long. Week 7-8 - pain free , able to walk an entire golf course and play back to back rounds and exercise regularly. Dr Lin's Gonstead approach has helped me relieve my impingements after each session and onward to a permanent recovery. Feeling pain free after a bulge disc is nothing short of a miracle. There are many things that differ using the Gonstead approach, the best way to describe it is the spine is adjusted to allow the body to naturally heal. I'm very blessed to access to such amazing care! thank you Dr. Lin!
Thank you for taking the time to leave such a detailed a review!
We are glad you're feeling better and well on your way to a full recovery! Thank you for choosing the Gonstead approach to help you through your sciatica and bulged disc!
- The Adapt Spine Team
Fantastic experience: I've been a patient for the past few months and I am really happy with the treatment and the results so far. I really appreciated that Dr. Lin took the time to inform me about what the underlying issues were and the detail of the treatments during the sessions. I also appreciated that regular sessions only took 15-20 minutes so I can squeeze in the appointment in between other plans. Overall I would definitely recommend this clinic and to make appointments sooner than later as I've noticed time slots are filling up as the clinic is becoming more popular.
Thank you for the review Jule! We are glad you are happy with the care!

Fantastic experience: I came to Adapt Spine Centre after spending about $60k on various other chiropractic methods , physio , sports massage , RMT , yoga .. you name it I tried it , trying to fix my pelvis/hip/sacrum pain. My pelvis and hips were in extreme pain all the time , to the point where standing up or walking for a few minutes would be excruciating and I would feel winded. It got to the point where my pelvis was so tilted that even going to the bathroom to pee was difficult , as I could literally not bend , and as a female during certain time of the month, I could literally NOT even insert a tampon (sorry for the TMI , but this was how horrible my pain/range of motion was). Somedays debilitated and I would just cry and hope taking pain killers would help (they did nothing). I KNEW the initial time and cost would be high , but after spending 10 years like this , 2 visits a week for several weeks seemed like a good trade off , if I would be able to function like a 'normal' human. Dr. Lin is amazing , and he took the time to listen to me (all the details) and didn't brush off my pain as "normal" or me being over dramatic , or a 'whiny female' , which has occurred with much of this journey with most medical doctors. Chiropractic are has been one of the only reasons I have been able to function for the last 10 years. I've been going twice a week for about 10 weeks , and just started on to the once a week phase. During this time you have up's and downs, it's not an instant fix , but the first time I rolled over without having to "think" about it , or literally bent down with no pain to tie my shoes was such a good feeling. It has been years since I didn't feel like I had 10 pound lead weights pulling my pelvis down , and it's so great to be able to "live" a normal life again. I will continue my visits and the steps to get to the one a month maintenance visit. The office is very clean , modern and the staff are kind and it's an all around relaxing and none intimidating environment. Dr. Lin truly cares about all his patients and takes the time to get to know each of them. You get a true "family" feel visiting this office vs a clinical detached feeling. Parking isn't too crazy for street parking (I've never not found a spot) and it's free which is great . It's worth the Drive , as every time I leave feeling better. I am so happy I found Adapt , 10/10 recommend if you feel that you've tried everything.

Fantastic experience: Dr Lin is a professional who cares deeply for his patients and Gonstead chiropractic is an excellent systematic approach compared to the guesswork most other chiropractors do. If you had problems that others could not fix elsewhere then look no further. They gave me back a full range of motion so i can contine with my athletic endeavors.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been in having muscle pain , nervousness, anxious , tight muscles on my left side on my body for about 6 years making it hard for me to go to the gym, go for bike rides and other things that made it difficult for me to do, I’ve been going to almost everything there was out there, chiropractors, acupuncture, laser treatment, Massage , deep tissue massage , dry needling , physio therapy . Etc etc etc . Since I met dr Antony lin a gonstead chiropractor just letting everyone know that gonstead chiropractic is totally different breed then just your regular chiropractors. They are more advance and very specific on what they do. After a few treatments with adapt spine centre I’ve started to go back to the gym my breathing is getting better I feel that more air is going into my system to be able to do things at the gym that I haven’t done for a long time. Also my sleep is getting better . Out of all the chiropractor clinics that are out there in bc this is the number one clinic everyone should check out. You won’t regret it. But remember gonstead chiropractors are a lot better and they will fix your muscle issues then your regular chiropractor. Trust me.

Fantastic experience: I'm a long time patient of Dr. Antony Lin. He's done wonders for my low back when I injured it from Olympic weightlifting several years ago. Always been professional and handled my case with great expertise; I expect nothing less in his new practice at Adapt Spine Centre. He's good at getting to the root cause of the issue, and Adapt has all the equipment for him to do so. Really happy to see that x-ray in there! I highly recommend Antony to anyone looking to take care of old and new injuries alike!
Thank you Christopher! It has been a pleasure taking care your spinal health! Look forward to continuing the great momentum we’ve created for your health!

Fantastic experience: I had waited patiently for over 6 months for the opening of Adapt Spine clinic and from the past month of seeing Dr. Antony Lin I can safely say it was worth the wait! I suffer from lower back (sciatica), hip and neck pain, and Dr Lin has definitely helped alleviate those problem areas. I am hoping with his expertise I will be able to avoid hip surgery. Dr Lin truly cares for his patients by taking the time to listen and ask questions. I always look forward to my sessions and feel incredible afterwards! Thank you Dr Lin and his awesome staff for the wonderful service they provide!
Thank you for the review! We are so happy you found help after waiting so long!

Fantastic experience: Professional, thorough and genuine in his care. I've seen Dr. Antony Lin for several years and he's helped me through a variety of issues as they arise. He doesn't sell you on continuous visits, but helps you heal the root of the issues as efficiently as possible. Would highly recommend! Also, this new clinic is beautiful, modern and very welcoming!
Thank you Brendan! It’s been a pleasure to take care of you and your family over the years!

Fantastic experience: Thorough care and friendly staff. Very modern approach to chiropractics with quantifiable results. First saw Dr. Lin at another clinic when I was barely able to walk from back pain, walked out significantly better the same day. Repeat visits made the progress last long-term. I'm very excited he has his own practice now!
Thank you so much for the kind words Amir! We are so glad to have been a part of your healing journey!

Fantastic experience: I just had my first Chiropractic session with Dr. Lin today and I must say he was so knowledgable and took the time to explain every test and what their purpose was. He is a very polite, positive person with a great sense of humour. The entire experience was enlightening as well as enjoyable. So glad to be a patient knowing that I am in good hands.
