Dr Harold Nguyen – Scarborough Chiropractor

B.Sc(Chiro), B.Clin.Chiro

Associate Chiropractor

Dr Harold Nguyen (Chiro) graduated from Murdoch University with a double degree in a Bachelor of Science (Chiropractic) and a Bachelor of Chiropractic. He is a passionate Chiropractor with a keen interest in health and fitness, as well as combat sports such as Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), being a brown belt himself.

Being the youngest sibling in a family full of health professionals (including another Chiropractor, and a Physiotherapist and Pharmacist), Harold is no stranger to the allied health workforce. He understands the importance of addressing the underlying cause of the problem, as well as managing its symptoms.

PATIENT-CENTRED CARE

Harold takes a holistic patient-centred approach with his initial assessments, aiming to understand the various lifestyle factors or habits (such as posture, sleep and nutrition) which may be contributing to the cause of the underlying problem.

He utilizes a range of manual therapy techniques including spinal adjustments/mobilizations, soft tissue therapies, cupping and dry needling. Rehabilitation exercises are also a central component of Harold’s management, often to address any deficiencies in mobility, stability, and/or strength to help with long-term pain management or return to sport.

OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE WITH CHIROPRACTIC 

As a regular BJJ (Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu) competitor himself, Harold understands the importance of optimising one’s athletic performance when it comes time to shine. He also places a large emphasis on injury rehabilitation, aiming to minimize any chances of reinjury in the future.

In his spare time outside of the clinic, you can find Harold either spending time on the mats training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, walking his pet cavoodle with his partner, or simply buried underneath a good book.
