Body & Pain

ICBC Recovery

Recovering from a motor-vehicle accident — supportive care for whiplash, strains and stiffness.

ICBC Recovery
How TCM can help

After a collision, neck, back and shoulder pain, stiffness, headaches and trouble sleeping are common. Registered acupuncture and related therapies are commonly used to ease pain and tension and support recovery and mobility. In British Columbia, ICBC recognises treatment by registered practitioners — we can help you understand the process.

What to expect

After an assessment of your injuries and any ICBC paperwork, we plan an individualized course of care. Sessions often combine acupuncture with bodywork — adjusted as you recover and return to activity.

Frequency and duration vary by injury and case.
