“I was referred to Rachel by a friend who had amazing results with her chiropractic care in North Vancouver. I was pretty nervous for my first appointment, but she immediately made me feel comfortable. She took the time to do a thorough assessment and clearly explained everything that was going on with my back, neck and shoulders. What I really appreciated was that she never pressured me into anything. She offered different options like exercises, soft tissue therapy, and chiropractic adjustments so I could choose what felt right :) When I first started seeing her, my pain was so bad I could barely sit for more than a couple of hours. Thanks to her treatment plan, I gradually went from appointments once or twice a week to every few weeks, then monthly. Now I only go every few months for maintenance, and the improvement has been incredible. She really knows her stuff, but what I like most is how nice and easy she is to talk to. She actually listens, doesn’t rush you, and you leave feeling better every time 💗💗 Highly recommended”

“I have been going to Avita for many years now. My constants are Richard for acupuncture (AMAZING!) and Sebastian for massage (incredible!), but I have seen other practitioners there and they are all wonderful. The front end ladies and admins are fantastic! I definitely recommend Avita.”

“I had my first appointment with Dr. Max Szczawinski and had a very positive experience. He was professional, attentive, and took the time to understand my concerns. He explained everything clearly and made me feel comfortable throughout the visit. I look forward to continuing my treatment with him.”

“A warm, caring and inviting space. I was a visiting walk in, and although they were fully booked the receptionist encouraged me to leave my number in case of cancellation. I got an early appointment with Cassidy and she was delightful. Knowledgeable, polite but chatty, she assessed me thoroughly and gave me some exercises to help my situation. I would love to go back for a follow up, but sadly I am leaving the area tomorrow.”

“Rachel is a phenomenal chiropractor, and I’m so glad to have found her! She knows how to approach my various sensitivities, doing so with such care and professionalism. I greatly value her expertise and knowledge, and feel like I can ask her anything and share without judgement. I genuinely enjoy going to appointments as she keeps things really fun and jovial, while also delivering exceptional care and attention. Highly recommend!”

“Dr. Rachel Rottger is my first chiropractor since last year and I'm so glad I went with her as she's super professional, respectful and approachable. She always checks to see if I'm comfortable and lets me know what she's doing so that I understand the purpose of each adjustment. Just 20 mins with her I'd feel so much relief; it's like a very efficient and effective RMT session but better as the relief lasts way longer! I look forward to seeing her every time and would highly recommend her to anyone seeking highly effective treatment in North Van.”

“Dr. Max Szczawinski is excellent. He’s calm, thorough, and really takes the time to understand what’s going on. The treatment felt specific, effective, and never rushed. Highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great chiropractor in North Vancouver.”

“Dr. Rachel is truly the gold standard of chiropractic care. Whether it’s routine maintenance, injury recovery, athletic performance support, or relief from desk-job strain, she approaches every concern with skill, attentiveness, and care. I began seeing Dr. Rachel about three years ago while competing in powerlifting. As an athlete, I deeply appreciated the knowledge she brings from her own background in athletics and fitness. Her experience in weightlifting allowed us to connect on a level beyond basic pain management — she understood the physical demands of training and competition. Her care made a significant difference in both my preparation and performance. Today, I see her primarily for desk-related discomfort — neck strain, headaches, posture-related issues, and occasional flare-ups from past injuries. She is consistently thorough and attentive, carefully gauging comfort levels and always asking for consent before performing anything that may cause discomfort. She explains each step of the process, helping you feel informed, relaxed, and completely at ease. As someone who was initially new to chiropractic care, I especially appreciated the time she took to build trust and walk me through what to expect (steps of adjustments, equipment used, sensations, etc. ). She carries herself with a calm confidence that makes it easy to feel secure in her care. I can’t recommend her highly enough.”
