Myer’s Push

What is it: Vitamin and mineral IV infusion

“It was quick and easy and well done at the Boucher Clinic, and well within my budget. It did not hurt. I remember that I woke up the next morning and my skin was radiant and glowing. And I have keratosis pilaris (small red bumps) on my arms, and after the Myer’s, they disappeared for 5 days. I’d like to get another one soon!”

Acupuncture

“I find it is much-needed time to myself, to lie down and relax. Sometimes it hurts a little bit as the needles go in, but then it’s fine. Some points have a heavy aching feeling, which is the Qi [energy] moving. I sleep so well after a treatment.”

– C.B.

“I started coming a year ago because I had gone on a hike and hurt my knee, and was really scared I would never be able to hike again. My clinicians diagnosed me with patellar-femoral syndrome. They did cupping on my IT band, and it was the most painful thing I’ve ever felt because my IT band was so tight. But it made such a difference! Then I had electro-stim on my quads, and lots of acupuncture – my knees looked like pincushions. But it made a world of difference, and I did a ton of hiking this summer!”

Laser  &  interferential  current (IFC)

“I had both treatments to help with chronic pain. You don’t feel anything during the laser treatment. The IFC feels tingly, like a TENS machine, but it is not painful. It was very convenient and very effective for me.”

Constitutional hydrotherapy

What is it: treatment of alternating hot and cold towels

“It’s amazing

! I did six weekly treatments for stress and anxiety. The cold towel is pretty cold, but it’s very relaxing and gives you a grounding effect that is hard to explain. It made me feel really clear-minded, calm and very grounded.”

– A.S.

“I did a constitutional hydrotherapy treatment when I was coming down with a bad cold. Before the treatment I felt tired and chilled. I loved how cozy the warm towels made me feel, and how the cold towels stimulated my body to warm up. After the treatment I felt completely warmed up inside, and I had a lot more energy.”

– J.S.

 

Other treatments

“I came in for a pulled muscle, and it was great because there are so many tools in the clinic – lasers and ultrasound and herbs and acupuncture. Not many other clinics have the same variety. It really adds a lot of value to each visit.”
