1 in 4 British Columbians stopped working in the last year because of musculoskeletal (MSK) pain.
MSK conditions are one of the leading causes of disability and lost productivity. That’s why improving access to effective pain management matters.
Chiropractors already play an important role in helping patients recover through evidence-based care. Expanding scope to include tools like needle stimulation would give chiropractors another option to help manage pain, reduce disability, and support patients in getting back to work.
Better access to MSK care benefits patients, workplaces, and the entire healthcare system.
