Across Canada, chiropractors are authorized to perform needle stimulation in nearly every province.
That means patients in most of the country can receive integrated, evidence-informed musculoskeletal care from their chiropractor without needing additional appointments or referrals. From Alberta to Newfoundland and Labrador, this has been standard practice for years, with no reported adverse impacts.
The only exceptions?
❌ British Columbia
❌ Quebec
British Columbians deserve access to the same comprehensive musculoskeletal care available across the rest of the country.
97% of British Columbians support including needle stimulation in chiropractic scope (IPSOS 2025).
It’s time for BC to align with the national standard.
