Meet Your Surrey Acupuncture Dream Team
Surrey Acupuncture
Enable your body’s natural painkillers to alleviate pain and increase overall body wellness with Acupuncture!
Acupuncture is a branch of Chinese medicine that focuses on balancing chi (energy force). The traditional view regarding benefits of acupuncture was established by Chinese medicine. It revolves around unblocking certain meridians or channels to increase blood flow. Modern thinking maintains that acupuncture stimulates one or more of your body’s signaling systems, increasing the rate of natural healing processes.

BC BACK Equipment
We are committed to investing in unique equipment options to offer our patients.
Vax-D Spinal Decompression
Do you have nerve pain and/or sciatica from a disc injury? We know how debilitating this can be. If you feel like you have tried other therapies that haven’t worked for you, you may be a good candidate for VAX-D spinal decompression.
SPINE SPECIALIST Decompression
The Spine Specialist is the world’s first and only patented medical treatment device designed for the performance of Laser Assisted Spinal Restoration™. It has been called “The Evolution of Non-Surgical Spinal Disc Treatment™.” The Spine Specialist has been designed and developed right here in Canada by Dr. Mark Jagger and is fully registered with Health Canada as a classified
medical device.
“Laser Assisted Spinal Restoration (L.A.S.R.)” simultaneously combines the two most technologically advanced treatments for back and neck pain, Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression and Class 4 Medical Laser Therapy. It applies them to the spine through our specially designed automated delivery system to achieve an unparalleled treatment effect.
What it treats :
- Disc Herniations
- Protruding or Bulging Discs
- Spinal Stenosis
- Sciatica or Radiculopathy (pinched nerves)
- Degenerative Disc Disease
- Facet Syndrome
Med-X Lumbar Extension Machine
Sometimes when patients come to us for help, a large part of their issue comes from a lack of strength and flexibility. What we can offer at BC Back (along with any passive, hands-on treatments you may need) is the ability to address these issues with the assistance of our MED-X machines.
Med-X Rotary Torso Machine
It’s important to understand how much of a role core strength plays in your back pain. Having a strong core is something we strongly believe in and encourage as an extension of any treatment plan.
Tech Trainer
The tech trainer provides a total body workout and can be used for hundreds of exercises valuable to both rehabilitation and targeted sports training. It also provides accurate analysis of sport-specific training, allowing us to assess areas of strength and areas of improvement.
Cold Laser Therapy
Cold Laser Therapy is great for anyone looking to speed up the body’s natural healing process and recover from injury. It stimulates damaged cells to encourage rapid re-generation. It is a non-invasive treatment which means no down time or medication is required.
Shockwave Therapy
Shockwave can be used either on it’s own, or as a part of a more comprehensive treatment plan to promote quicker healing. These quick, non-invasive treatments involve high-intensity acoustic waves that react with the tissues in your body.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION About Acupuncture
Initially we need to decide which areas we want to target. This is done using four diagnostic methods: inspection, auscultation, palpation / percussion, and inquiry. Essentially, by examining the condition of your face and tongue, listening to breathing sounds, feeling for tender points, and understanding your everyday life, we can determine how to use the treatment most effectively.
Extremely thin needles will then be gently inserted at the established target areas to induce energy flow. Each target area relates to certain health problems and body functions.
How Does Acupuncture Work:
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese medicine that works by targeting certain points of the body. The acupuncture practitioner will insert thin needles into the skin, which encourages blood flow, improves neuron pathways and can help boost the body’s natural ability to repair itself. It is a constantly evolving topic, as more evidence for why it works is continually discovered.
How Many Treatments Will I Need:
Depending on the condition being treated and the effectiveness of each treatment, the total number can vary. Some people get monthly treatments, while others receive them several times per week. Different areas can be targeted as treatments progress. Each condition and individual being treated will have a customized treatment. Set up an appointment with us so we can discuss your treatment and determine the best course of action.
What Happens During an Acupuncture Treatment:
The acupuncturist examines each patient during their appointment to determine which areas are reactive and thus most effective for use. Disposable, sterile needles about a hair thin are then inserted into various areas, ranging in depth. In some instances we use an electrical current to provide additional stimulation to the area being treated.
What Conditions Can Acupuncture Treat:
Acupuncture is best known for treating chronic pain. It has proven effective for those suffering from headaches, menstrual cramps, back pain, neck pain, muscle pains or strains and pain associated with osteoarthritis. It can also boost the immune system. There are many different pains that can be alleviated with the practice of acupuncture.
What Should I Do Before a Treatment:
Patients are advised to wear loose fitting and comfortable clothing to the treatment. Depending on the target area, you may be asked to partially disrobe, and remove shoes and socks. Some patients are very tired or groggy after the initial treatment, so first timers might want to make arrangements for a safe ride home. If you have any questions in advance of a treatment, don’t hesitate to contact us so we can offer you a full understanding of what to expect.
How Will I Feel After a Treatment:
An acupuncture treatment has a relaxing effect, which is why you shouldn’t drive following the appointment. Even though you may be feeling great as a result of your appointment, don’t overextend yourself in the days following treatment to let your body fully recover. Other than that, you should be able to enjoy usual activities and continue on any medicine regimen you may be following.
