• Premenstrual syndrome (PMS), premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD), mood swings 
• Digestive concerns such as heart burn, IBS and Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO)

Yan Yen practices with heart. She ensures patients are heard in a safe and welcoming space. Her approach is to first provide patients with symptom relief. Meanwhile, she works on investigating and treating the causes of their symptoms. This approach allows for long-term wellness. 

Yan Yen integrates advanced laboratory testing, when needed as part of the assessment process. Her treatments incorporate nutrition, herbal medicine, vitamins & supplements, acupuncture, cupping, lifestyle coaching, and counselling.

Dancing is Yan Yen’s element — particularly expressive, freestyle dance (no structured choreography here!). If she’s not dancing, she’s either biking around the city or laying in a hammock somewhere quiet with lots of blue skies and greenery.
