Empower Health - Real Solutions for Real People – Integrated Health
It is a concept with a powerful title. They are an integrated team of medical, naturopathic, alternative, and wellness professionals. We can take comfort in our community that there is a wonderful treatment facility that offers such services, which are integrated and modulated to give you the maximum care possible.
Situated on the second floor of 2555 Commercial Drive, they are just steps from the Commercial-Broadway Skytrain Station. It is welcoming when you enter, much more so than unlike a (sometimes) chaotic clinical office. There is a genuine calming and relaxing energy here.
With an integrated list of medical professionals available, Empowers’ concept is invaluable, because whether you have a simple or a complex condition, you get expert diagnqosis from a diverse group of practitioners to find solutions.

To refer or customize an effective program for someone, they recommend completing an Integrative Health assessment.
Once you get an assessment they have an optional list of therapy sessions that include Medical Services, Hands-On therapies, as well as Mind and Body therapies.

Keeping the Drive Clean
The Commercial Drive Business Society (CDBS) Street Enhancement Committee works with many local groups to keep the sidewalks and streets in our Business Improvement Area (BIA) clean and safe. In addition to our long partnership with the Kettle Friendship Society, who provide street cleaning, we also work with Rain City Housing and the City of Vancouver, who together, manage the Cold Weather Shelter at 1st and Commercial, and provide Needle Pick Ups in the Commercial Drive BIA.
