Vincent H.K. Chan - Physiotherapist & Acupuncturist
I believe healing is most effective when science and wisdom unite. My career began in 2002 as a physiotherapist, helping patients restore mobility and rebuild confidence after injury. Over time, I discovered that while physiotherapy effectively rehabilitated the body, some patients continued to struggle with pain and imbalance that required a deeper approach.
This inspired me to study Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) acupuncture, and since 2012 I’ve been integrating acupuncture with physiotherapy to deliver more complete, lasting results. With over 20 years of experience across Australia, Hong Kong, and China, I’ve worked in hospitals, rehabilitation centres, aged-care facilities, and private practices.
Treatment Philosophy
Healing should treat the person, not just the problem. Each patient’s story is unique, and effective treatment must address both underlying causes and visible symptoms. By combining physiotherapy and acupuncture, I aim to restore physical function and energetic balance, empowering the body’s natural capacity to heal.
