Yu-Chan (Derek) Huang, is a dedicated chiropractor devoted to providing quality care, with a passion for helping the community improve and function optimally throughout their lives. Originally from Taiwan, Derek can speak fluent Mandarin, English, and Taiwanese. Derek’s journey towards being a clinician first began when he completed his Bachelor of Biomedical Science in Taiwan, which sparked his interest in the human body, particularly in bio-mechanics. Seeing his mother suffer from chronic de-habilitating knee pain for multiple years further cemented his decision to pursue the chiropractic profession, which lead him to pursue further study and graduate with a Masters of Chiropractic at Macquarie University.
Derek has great interest and experience in managing patients with musculoskeletal injuries of neck, lower back, upper/lower extremities, as well as chronic conditions such as disc injuries, headaches, and postural pain and discomfort due to sedentary lifestyles. Derek employs several multi-modal techniques in his practice including chiropractic adjustments, mobilisations, dry needling, cupping, soft tissue release, and muscle rehabilitation exercises in order to provide optimal recovery for his clients. Outside of the clinic, you will most likely see Derek staying active at the gym, playing badminton, basketball and bouldering.
Come to Thrive Sports Chiro to visit Derek, where he is excited to help people in the communities of Burwood, Croydon, Strathfield and Concord in achieving their health goals!
