November 2020

I am excited to announce that on January 4th, 2021, I will be moving my Chiropractic Practice to a new space at #102 – 3795 Carey Rd, Victoria, BC, to join The Athlete Centre. The clinic consists of a talented team of Athletic Therapists, Registered Massage Therapists, Strength and Conditioning Coaches and a Physiotherapist.

The Athlete Centre is approximately 1.5 kms away from the current office.  The new clinic is in a central location in The Apex Building, which is north of Uptown Mall across from The Gateway Village, close to where the Pat Bay Highway becomes Blanshard street. The location has an excellent bus route service nearby and ample free parking on site.

With the services offered at The Athlete Centre, I am excited for the opportunity to further help you achieve your health and wellness goals.  I will continue to offer the same high-quality, movement-based Chiropractic care at the new location, including access to Class IV Laser therapy. I also have access to an 850 sq ft rehab space for patient sessions.

For your convenience, The Athlete Centre offers online booking and direct billing to many extended medical plans.  For more information on the clinic, COVID-19 protocols and many of our other services, I encourage you to visit the website: www.athletecentre.ca

Constantly playing sports and being active, he found that his chiropractor consistently helped him alleviate and recover from injuries and pain in both an effective and efficient manner. After discovering that all the chiropractors he encountered seemed so passionate about their job, he quickly knew this was the career for him.

Dr. Yu has a strong interest in soft-tissue injuries in relation to chiropractic care. This has led him to complete various courses in soft-tissue injury related treatment. Some of these courses include certifications in Active Release TechniquesGraston Instrumented Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization Technique, FAKTR-PM or Functional and Kinetic Treatment with Rehabilitation, Provocation, and Motion, and Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization. Furthermore, he constantly strives to better serve his patients by increasing his knowledge base through continuing education courses, workshops and conferences.

Dr. Yu enjoys treating patients of all ages for various neuro-musculo-skeletal conditions ranging from acute injuries, to repetitive strain injuries, to supportive and wellness care.  He also has a special interest and knowledge base in athletic injuries, and enjoys taking on challenging cases. He believes in a well-rounded, patient-centered approach to care and utilizes an array of techniques, including: chiropractic adjustments, soft-tissue/myofascial mobilization, functional movement screens, rehabilitation exercise, education, and lifestyle modifications.
