Dear Kimberley and Cranbrook patients,
***IMPORTANT CLINIC INFORMATION***
Due to the unprecedented and extenuating circumstances surrounding COVID-19 and as a precautionary measure in accordance with the BC Centre for Disease Control, Peak Potential Chiropractic and Kimberley Chiropractic Clinic will be closed until it is safer to resume our practice.
The nature of manual therapy and the physical contact required for treatment raises our concern that we could compromise recommendations from Public Health Authorities regarding safe distancing to decrease the risk of virus transmission.
The government has allowed for emergency visits.
These visits are defined as chiropractic appointments that cannot wait until we re-open. If you are suffering, we want you to reach out. You can contact Dr. Miller directly at 250-427-2281 through talk or text. We will check the email and voice mail several times per day, and respond accordingly. Standard Fees apply.
Our top priority is the health and safety of our patients, staff, their families, and our community, especially those who are more vulnerable to the implications of COVID-19.
All patients with appointments currently booked will be rescheduled, effective immediately. We will provide notification as soon as we have deemed it is safe to re-open.
Thank you to all for your understanding, and we look forward to getting better, together, in the future!
Coronavirus Update for Registered Massage Therapists
We are following the advice from BC Centre for Disease Control, Public Health Agency of Canada and College of Massage Therapists of BC. There is no question that massage therapy is a highly beneficial health care modality, but it is not a primary or essential health care service. This is an important consideration at this time, when resources are being repurposed and prepared for delivery of extended emergency services.
Currently: in most cases the risks of providing or receiving treatment for both the patient and for the therapist will outweigh the benefits.

Spine Health
Your spine is important to your daily health. In addition to 24 bone joints that allow the body to bend and move, your spine is also home to your spinal cord which effectively connects all of the organs, muscles and other tissues to the brain. Without a healthy spine, not only might you have trouble moving, your nerve connections to the brain may also become impaired and that means unnecessary pain.
There are many things you can do to lead a healthier lifestyle and prevent injury to the spine. BC's chiropractors put together some helpful tips and advice to keep your spine in shape:
