Good Morning,

I hope this email finds you healthy and in good spirits today on Earth Day considering our current situation. Our office, and The British Columbia Chiropractic Association, is closely following the advice of Dr. Bonnie Henry and the BC CDC with regard to providing care to our patients. Due to the slow flattening of the COVID-19 curve, our office remains closed to regular office visits; however, we are opening up limited spots for emergency Chiropractic care each week.

We would like to ensure our patients that we are following current guidelines for social distancing and sanitization. We are limiting our office space to one patient at a time and we are being extra diligent with wiping down all surfaces (Chiropractic table, waiting room chairs, countertops and doorknobs) between patients. At present, Dr. Houlgrave is the only staff member in the office and he is practicing frequent hand washing.

If you are in need of emergency care, please contact us at our office line 250-339-2100 and we can make arrangements to schedule an appointment. We ask at this time, that if you are experiencing cold or flu like symptoms or have recently travelled to please stay home. If you are not seeking emergency care, are unsure if you need treatment or simply need to discuss your current situation please call us. We will do our best to answer or direct your inquiry in a timely manner.

In the next couple of weeks, we will be in contact discussing how our office will be moving forward as the information is presented to us by the governing bodies and the BC CDC. We understand this situation is ever changing and we will continue to monitor and react accordingly.

We wish you all the best of health and look forward to seeing you all soon.

Yours in health,
Dr. Rick Houlgrave and Staff
