Who he works with
Throughout his career, Dr. Lau has cared for elite athletes, recreational competitors, injured workers and families. His mission is lasting comfort and better vitality for people at every stage of life.
His training began at UCLA and continued with doctoral studies at the Southern California University of Health Sciences. As a Certified Chiropractic Sports Physician, a Qualified Medical Evaluator and a certified Active Release Techniques provider, he brings an integrated approach to every visit.
How he approaches care
Dr. Lau believes the best care comes from finding the underlying source of a patient's condition rather than only treating the symptoms on the surface. He focuses on restoring movement and physical performance so patients can get back to the life they enjoy, whether that is professional sports, a demanding job or the simple joys of everyday living.
Known for his caring bedside manner and his focus on each patient, he works with every person to build a wellness plan around their needs and long-term health goals.
Therapies he uses
Beyond standard adjustments, Dr. Lau uses conservative, non-surgical therapies that support the body's natural ability to heal. At the Lake Forest office these include extracorporeal shockwave therapy (ESWT) and spinal decompression, which are used to support tissue healing, increase local blood flow and ease discomfort in injured tendons, muscles and ligaments.
He combines them with spinal corrective care, Active Release Techniques and personalized restorative exercise, so care addresses the source of the problem as well as longer-term recovery. Whether a therapy is right for you is decided after an examination.
