Meet Dr. Amanda Ngui-Yen, D.C.

A Holistic Approach to Healing

Dr. Amanda’s journey into healthcare began with a deep fascination with the intricate connections within the human body and its profound relationship with the mind. This curiosity led her to pursue an undergraduate degree in Biology at Western University in Ontario, Canada. With a strong foundation in science, combined with her passion for physical medicine and helping others, she went on to attain her Doctorate of Chiropractic degree with Honors from New York Chiropractic College.

Dr. Ngui-Yen strives to provide comprehensive and individualized health care to all of her patients by integrating western medical approaches with eastern philosophies and wisdom. This unique blend not only addresses the symptoms but also aims to identify and treat the root cause of health conditions and injuries, promoting overall well-being and long-term health. She believes that chiropractic care including muscular therapies, rehabilitative exercise, proper nutrition and stress management can provide an effective solution to many health conditions and injuries, as well as enhance and improve human function.

Dr. Amanda has been helping patients for over 10 years and is dedicated to providing outstanding care with the latest knowledge and research available.

Specialized Techniques and Certifications

With multiple specialized certifications, Dr. Amanda offers an exceptional range of therapeutic options for patients.

Dr. Amanda is Dry Needling Certified. Her expertise in Dry Needling helps target trigger points and release tension in muscles that do not respond to traditional treatments.

As a certified practitioner of the Graston Technique, she skillfully breaks down scar tissue and fascial restrictions using specialized instruments. This technique is utilized to eliminate pain and restore normal joint and muscle function. It helps achieve faster outcomes in acute, chronic and post-surgical conditions.

Dr. Amanda specializes in Myofascial Release — A hands on technique used to manually stretch and release taut bands of soft tissue (adhesions) and myofascial trigger points (aka “muscle knots”). Myofascial release helps reduce muscle tension and pain while facilitating proper range of motion and enhance overall function.

Dr. Ngui-Yen’s Acupuncture Certification adds another dimension to pain management and wellness care, as she infuses her treatments with the wisdom of eastern medicine and philosophy. She incorporates Cupping Therapy—an ancient technique that has gained modern popularity among top professional athletes and Olympians. Cupping creates suction on the skin to increase blood flow, decompress muscle spasm, loosen tight connective tissue and fascia, release stagnant toxins and reduce swelling and pain.

Her expertise in Kinesiology Taping helps provide structural support and stability to muscles and joints without restricting natural movement during the healing process. The tape can assist to alleviate pain and inflammation, facilitate lymphatic drainage, enhance performance and accelerate injury recovery.

This diverse skill set allows Dr. Ngui-Yen to customize treatment plans precisely to each patient’s needs.
