What People Are Saying
What keeps Vancouver moving.
"I work at a desk all day and my neck and upper back would be completely locked up by Thursday every week. I've been coming to Shift every couple of weeks and it's made a huge difference, I feel lighter walking out every time."
"I ride a lot, Seawall commutes, weekend rides up to Squamish. The tension I carry in my lower back and shoulders from being in a bent position all the time was just becoming background noise. Dr. Moses sorted it out without any cracking. Highly recommend."
"I'd never tried chiropractic because the idea of someone cracking my neck honestly scared me. Shift is completely different, the decompression table felt incredible and I walked out feeling taller. I now book every month just to maintain that feeling."
"After long run days my low back would always tighten up. I started coming in every few weeks during training and that tightness just stopped being a thing. It's become part of how I train, not something I do when things go wrong."
"I spend most of my day hunched over a laptop and the rest of it hunched over handlebars. My posture was a mess. Dr. Moses didn't make me feel bad about it, he just quietly fixed it over a few sessions. My shoulders sit differently now."
"I wasn't in crisis, just carrying a lot of tension from a busy life. A colleague mentioned Shift and I figured I'd try it. The roller massage alone was worth it. I leave every session feeling like I've had a full reset. It's my favourite part of the month."

Common Questions
Answers before you book.
No — and at Shift Clinic, there is no cracking, popping, or sudden movement involved at all. Spinal decompression feels like a gentle, rhythmic stretch; most patients find it deeply relaxing and many fall asleep on the table. Roller massage feels like a thorough deep-tissue flush. You walk out feeling looser, not sore.
Yes — most BC extended health plans include $300–$1,000 per year in chiropractic coverage. After every visit, a detailed, itemized receipt is emailed to you automatically. Most patients submit it through their insurer's app in under two minutes and receive reimbursement within 2–5 business days. Check your plan's summary of benefits for your specific annual limit.
No. Chiropractors in BC are primary contact practitioners — you can book directly without seeing a GP first. No referral form, no waitlist. Bring any existing imaging if you have it, but it is not required to begin care.
Most patients notice meaningful improvement within 3 to 6 sessions. At your first visit, Dr. Lee gives you a specific, honest recommendation based on your assessment — no vague timelines, no pressure to commit to packages upfront.
Yes. Because decompression and roller massage are non-force techniques, there is no post-treatment soreness to sideline you. Most patients run or ride the same day. Dr. Lee structures sessions around your training calendar, not the other way around.
Back pain, neck pain, sciatica, disc herniation, IT band syndrome, running injuries, cycling injuries, and posture-related tension from desk work. Dr. Lee specializes in non-manipulative care for endurance athletes and active Vancouverites who need to keep training while they recover.
