I had severe lower back pain for a week. My girlfriend recommended this Clinic and it was great. I felt immediate relief after acupuncture and electrical massage therapy! Yan made me feel at ease with his humour also! Thank you

I injured my lower back after doing decline push-ups on a bench. At the time, I didn’t realize that I was using the equipment incorrectly and that it could be dangerous for my spinal discs. So a small piece of advice for anyone reading this: if you’re not sure how to train properly with a decline bench, it’s best to ask a professional first. About a week after the workout, my lower back pain became quite severe. I couldn’t bend down, and even simple activities like brushing my teeth or putting on my pants were painful. That’s when I found Dr. Kam Yan at Main Yan Physio. He carefully explained what was happening in my back — that the disc was compressing nearby nerves, which was causing the pain. I really appreciated how patiently he listened to my concerns and clearly explained the medical reasoning behind the treatment. Dr. Kam used several treatment methods to help with my recovery, including acupuncture, massage, supportive devices, exercises, and a device with cups. His experience and attention to detail made a big difference in improving my back pain. Most importantly, he helped relieve my anxiety and uncertainty about the injury. That reassurance meant a lot during the recovery process. Now my back pain has improved about 80%, and I understand that full recovery will take time along with continued exercise and care. Thank you to Dr. Kam and his team. The front desk staff were very welcoming, and the supporting staff were kind and attentive as well. I would definitely recommend Main Yan Physio to anyone dealing with pain or injury.

This was my very first time visiting a physiotherapist, and before going, I had doubts about whether it would actually help. After the sessions, I experienced immediate relief from my pain and muscle tightness. Kam is extremely professional. He not only takes the time to thoroughly assess your pain, but also asks detailed questions about your daily life and work to address the issue at its root. During the sessions, he provided many helpful suggestions to reduce soreness. In addition, his assistant demonstrated exercises and helped massage my muscles. Everyone at the clinic is friendly and supportive. While I truly hope no one has to deal with pain, if you do, Kam Yan would definitely be my go-to choice.

If you are looking for excellent traditional Chinese acupuncture treatment, look no further. Dr. Yan carries the best of the ancient Chinese medical acupuncture knowledge and offers it to us, citizens of a large modern city. Dr. Yan is very cheerful, attentive, and shows real care for a patient's problem. He discusses a condition in detail , answers questions, and looks into the core of the issue. He helps not only with the temporary relief of acute conditions but also does his best to eliminate the problem in the long run. No doubt , Dr. Yan is one of the best acupuncturists, and Vancouverites are very lucky to have such a doctor available.

Dr. Allan Lam is an excellent medical doctor and a miracle worker! In May of 2024, I had a right shoulder pain with great difficulty lifting my right arm (I believe it is commonly known as the frozen shoulder). I was unable to move my arm to reach my back. The massive pain was unbearable, I went to my family doctor who sent me to have an X-Ray taken. The results showed no sign of other illness or injuries except the pain. He advised me to take pain killers which I resisted. The pain affected my sleep quality as I frequently woke up in middle of the night. Eventually I went to see an acupuncturist and received treatment once a week for 2 months then every 2 weeks. The pain eased a bit but my arm and shoulder still had the nagging pain and can barely move my arm to the back. I heard of Dr. Lam through a friend in late September. After a 4 months' waitlist, I got an appointment in February 2025. I was skeptical prior to the appointment with Dr. Lam. However, I was quickly convinced after the initial treatment of the trigger point injection. I can feel the huge progress after the 2nd and 3rd treatments. The pain was much relieved. I was able to move my arm to reach the lower back and more flexible in movement with minor pain in certain position. In the beginning, I received treatment from Dr. Lam once every 2 weeks, then once every month. After 11 sessions, I feel I am almost back to normal with my arm reaching to the proper height of my back. I am now mindful while I am walking or sitting, as Dr. Lam always emphasis and stresses that proper posture will help to full recovery and prevent similar pain in the future. I would also like to express my gratitude towards the help and patience offered by Meng Meng, the receptionist and Mrs. Lam. They all helped in my recovery.

In my life so far, every time I've had to work with a professional practitioner I've always felt like just a number to them. Not Dr. Yan! I've had an absolute pleasure working with Dr. Yan. He made me feel safe, comfortable and brought a great amount of humour which I appreciate during our sessions together. He was very easy to work with and a kind soul. He has an incredible staff that's very caring as well. Thank you so much for helping me with my knee problems and giving me the tools to help me have stronger legs. I'm back to an active life and getting better each passing day. I'm forever grateful for your help. Highly recommended!!

Dr. Yan has been absolutely amazing in helping me recover mobility and strength in my leg after suffering a hip fracture. Both him and the entire office staff truly care about my recovery. Highly recommend 💕

cannot recommend Dr. Yan highly enough! He is not only incredibly skilled and professional but also one of the kindest and most dedicated practitioners I’ve ever met. Thanks to his expertise, I am now free from hip pain, shoulder tendinitis, and plantar fasciitis—things I never thought I’d fully recover from. What sets Dr. Yan apart is his genuine care for his patients. He always greets you with warmth and positivity, and his approach goes beyond standard physiotherapy. You can truly tell he loves what he does, and that passion translates into real healing. He works miracles, and I am beyond grateful! If you’re looking for a physiotherapist who is both highly effective and deeply compassionate, look no further. Dr. Yan is priceless!

I broke my ankle awhile ago and came to Dr. Yan for physiotherapy. I did not have any expectation at first as my injured ankle was severely sprained with soft tissues pain, I was not expecting to be recovered in at least a few months time. After a couple of therapy sessions , I progress from walking with one crutch to walking without limp, driving, and performing daily activities. Dr. Yan has been extremely professional and knowledgeable during our treatments, I saw major improvement after each therapy. Every therapy is different as Dr. Yan would re-assess my condition and provide me with the most suitable treatments. I am really grateful to have his treatments and his experience as he ensure I have an effective recovery. Every visit was pleasant as everyone is friendly in the clinic. I highly recommend Dr. Yan to anyone who needs physiotherapy.
