Why choose our chiropractic service
Dr. Nicholas Yap is not your typical chiropractor and he is proud to offer several chiropractic services unavailable elsewhere in the Victoria BC area. His work focuses on addressing the whole person, and not just the spine. Dr. Yap believes in being a lifelong learner by staying up to date on best health care practices with current research, seeking continuing education when not in the office and often learning about new treatment techniques that are evidence-based, to better serve his community.
Dr. Yap feels extremely privileged to be responsible for your natural & non-invasive health care plan, and he doesn’t take that responsibility lightly!
If Dr. Yap may not be the right fit for you, rest assured he will exhaust all efforts in collaboration with allied health practitioners to ensure you get the right care and attention you DESERVE!
Some of our common chiropractic practices include:
Chiropractic Joint Manipulation: a safe and quick controlled thrust by the practitioner’s hands to adjust/mobilize regions of the spine and extremities that are restricted in motion and/or painful
Soft-tissue Manipulation: an effective method to address tight, tender, or sore muscles with the practitioner’s hands or with handheld chiropractic instruments to break up adhesions in the muscle, tendon, joint or fascia
Biomechanical Movement Screening: functional movement screening that will detect irregular or inefficient movement patterns contributing to imbalance, pain, and limitations in range of motion & mobility
Customized Rehabilitation Plan: based on specific biomechanical needs or goals of the patient, Dr. Yap will design a customized rehabilitation program to address your needs, alleviate the root cause of your pain, and provide you with strategies so that the problem is resolved for good.
Patient Education: Dr. Yap loves to educate all his patients about why they are experiencing their pain. He believes that a better understanding of their pain or injury will help our patients self-manage during the hours of their day when not in the office; leading to a better, faster, and more satisfying journey to recovery.
