Lower Back & Pelvic Discomfort Relief in Downtown Vancouver
Long desk days, hours behind the wheel, and active weekends often land in the same place—your lower back and pelvis. When stiffness or discomfort starts affecting work, training, or everyday movement, many people in Downtown Vancouver look for hands-on care that keeps things simple and practical. At Harbourview Chiropractic & Massage Clinic, steps from Canada Place, Dr. Glen Woodman combines 30+ years of experience with explanations you can follow. Same-day appointments are sometimes available, and you decide how often to return based on how you feel.
Clear Assessment and Hands-On Care
Your visit begins with a focused evaluation and a straightforward plan. Dr. Woodman checks how your spine, pelvis, and hips are moving, then uses techniques such as Diversified adjustments, drop-table methods, the Activator Methods® instrument, and soft-tissue work, such as Active Release Technique®.
These approaches are used with the intention of easing tension and helping restricted areas move more comfortably. Therapeutic ultrasound applies sound waves to the region being addressed, and lighter-touch options are always available if preferred.
Why People Seek Care for Lower Back or Pelvic Symptoms
Visitors often book an appointment when they notice:
- Low back tightness or sudden stiffness
- Discomfort around the pelvis or SI region
- Symptoms that seem to travel toward the leg
- Hip or glute tension linked to posture or sport
- General stiffness after long sitting or repetitive tasks
If symptoms follow a crash or feel unusually intense, we can discuss whether ICBC pathways or additional evaluation may be helpful.
Simple Strategies for Daily Life
Along with hands-on care, Dr. Woodman shares practical ideas you can use at home or work. These may include sit-stand strategies, small ergonomic changes, posture reminders, and gentle stretches suited to your comfort level. Many people find that breaking up long periods of sitting, walking more often, or adjusting the workstation height makes a noticeable difference. If needed, imaging referrals or coordination with massage or acupuncture may be arranged on-site.
What to Expect During Your Visit
Your first appointment typically lasts 30-40 minutes with assessment and care included. Follow-ups are usually 15-20 minutes. Parking, transit access, direct billing, and our ground-level location make getting here simple.
