Chiropractic Care & Spinal Rehabilitation in Richmond Hill
Led by Chiropractic Director Dr. Charles Yip alongside Dr. Erica Liu and Dr. Benson Ng, our chiropractic team at C.E.S. Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation delivers evidence-based spinal and joint care at 350 Highway 7 East, Unit 108 in Richmond Hill. All three of our chiropractors are graduates of the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College (CMCC) and work directly alongside our Registered Physiotherapists and RMTs to resolve acute injuries, chronic back and neck pain, and biomechanical movement restrictions.
Rather than relying on quick, one-size-fits-all adjustments, our Richmond Hill chiropractors perform thorough orthopedic and neurological assessments to identify the root cause of your pain. We combine hands-on diversified spinal manipulation, gentle joint mobilization, myofascial release therapy, clinical acupuncture, and active corrective exercises to restore pain-free mobility for commuters, athletes, and seniors across Richmond Hill, Markham, Thornhill, and Vaughan.

Chiropractic Care FAQs
Question 1: What is a Chiropractor and what training do they have?
Answer: Chiropractors are regulated primary-contact healthcare professionals holding a four-year Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree who specialize in diagnosing, treating, and preventing neuromuscular and skeletal disorders of the spine, nervous system, and joints.
​
Question 2: What is Spinal Manipulation Therapy (SMT) and is it safe?
Answer: Spinal Manipulation Therapy is a gentle, controlled hands-on technique applied to a restricted spinal joint to restore normal motion and reduce pain. When performed by a licensed Doctor of Chiropractic after a physical assessment, SMT is a safe, non-invasive treatment. If you prefer no popping or twisting, our chiropractors also offer gentle low-force joint mobilization and soft-tissue therapy.
​
Question 3: Are chiropractic treatments covered by insurance and MVA claims?
Answer: Yes, chiropractic visits at C.E.S. Physiotherapy & Rehabilitation are covered by most Extended Health Care benefit plans and Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) auto insurance policies. You do not need a doctor's referral to book an initial chiropractic assessment.
