Better Posture, Better Health , Better Life

Meet Dr. Jerry Lam

Hello, I am Dr. Lam.

As a Chiropractor and health care provider, my goal is to use my knowledge to help identify the source of your health problem and how to correct it holistically so you can improve your quality of health and live better without the needs of drugs and surgeries.

When I first started practicing as a Chiropractor in Victoria BC, I noticed over 90% of patients respond well with just chiropractic adjustments. However, there is a small percentage of patients are just not responding to any chiropractic, physiotherapy, massage and medications. I found my interest in Chiropractic Biophysics (CBP), ScoliCare which are the institutions provide an expertise training to equip chiropractors to treat with structural deformities from Head/Neck injuries, Scoliosis, Disc injuries, Hyperkyphosis, Cervical Kyphosis.

These are the areas that I had been pursuing for years to try to best help our community. My goal is to take corrective chiropractic care a more advanced and accessible level in Victoria, Canada. I would like to welcome you to my practice.

Patient testimonials

  • Ashlie A.

    Dr. Lam and the team have been amazing . They do a very thorough intake and assessment. For the first time, despite having been to other chiro and physio, I have a treatment plan that is addressing the root causes of discomfort in my body and my posture. They take the time to listen and adapt your treatment as needed and provide home care options that they walk you through. Front desk is always on top of things and is quick to follow up with any questions or appointment bookings. I will continue to recommend Cedar Hill Sports Therapy to anyone looking for a team of kind and effective professionals to help them reach their goals of feeling better in their body.

    "5+ Stars This clinic is what others should strive to be. With the use of a detailed assessment, science based approaches and in house x-ray Dr. Lam found a chronic issue that 5-7 other physiotherapists, chiropractors and doctors failed to diagnose. In clinic, there is a multidisciplinary team that makes treatment much more easily streamlined. Further, all staff from front desk to Chiropractor are excellent at making a welcoming professional environment. New tools such as Jane app for scheduling allow customers to sync appointments directly into phone calendars as well as send texts ahead of appointments for reminders. I would trust this team with all my future musculoskeletal needs."

  • Robert M.

    "This clinic takes a thoughtful, science-based approach to Chiropractic care, a different experience from what I have had in the past. My initial assessment was not rushed and included careful analysis and two-way discussion, including x-rays. Dr Lam took the time to thoroughly explain his diagnosis and shared information in a way that was easy to understand. The clinic staff are professional and courteous and provide excellent patient service. Most importantly, treatment is showing results and I am feeling pain reduction and increased range of motion that I haven't had in years.

    "Everyone was very kind, welcoming and supportive. It was a great environment for healing. I really appreciated everyone there and would go there again in the future. I would highly recommend this place for anyone needing this type of work done and Dr Lam was a huge help and always checks in with you about how you're doing and how things are going. Love this place!

  • Kyle F.

    "I highly recommend Dr Lam (+team) especially if your Doctor only snaps and cracks you, there’s much more to it; and they have equipment, tools and staff to help you “fix” it! I started seeking chiropractic therapy 2 years ago when my pain became unliveable and costing me irreplaceable time. I started 3 months ago with Better Back. I dread going there, the expense and I wish they were open around 7 or 7:30am:) But the results (Dr +team) supersede any of that! It’s been closer to 20 years since I felt this good. I can stand up straight pain free and even have a strut again (that took 2 months) but I didn’t even know I lost it!?! Thanks team:) “

  • Heather F.

    AMAZING. I have had neck pain for over 25 years. I have done Chiro, physio, massage, IMS, cupping and acupuncture with limited relief but it never went away. I have gone to Cedar Hill Sports Therapy for 4 weeks and the relief I feel is over 80%. I have slept better than I have in over 25 years. I seriously love this place. Dr Lam is thorough, professional and kind. He listened and has made a huge difference to me. Everyone in that office works as a team from Debbie and Catherine who strap you into traction and ensure it is safe and doable. Dr Gage stepped in when I was doing a pre-exercise wrong. He just came over and showed me the best way to do it This is what you want from an amazing clinic Tell them Heather referred you. The only thing you will lose is your pain!!

  • Hana P.

    I highly recommend Dr. Jerry Lam and the entire team of Cedar Hill Sports Therapy. As a team, including the physiotherapist I met and the impressively welcoming and kind administration staff members, Cedar Hill Sports Therapy offers a great environment to feel safe and heal. Especially Dr. Jerry Lam’s extremely skilled insights and analysis on what exactly causes the issues has been the highlight for me, and with the right diagnosis, analysis and plans he creates, he offers the step-by-step healing process. I came to see Dr. Jerry Lam when tingling started and increased each day from burnout. Through Xray and the analysis, he discovered what could be the physical part of the issue, and made the plans which include home exercises with some purchased equipments. I think both the treatments at the Clinic and the home exercises with the equipments made the breakthrough right away for me, and I recovered not only from the spiritual aspect of burnout but also the physical part - significantly less or almost no tingling and numbness only after just a few treatments and exercises. I hope you experience the magic - which is the right diagnosis and analysis for creating the plans for you.

    I have nothing but amazing things to say about this clinic and the team! My life has changed significantly over the last 3 months thanks to Dr. Lam at Better Back Clinic. My back pain has improved tenfold through decompression therapies and prescribed home exercises. Dr.Lam has communicated the pathology of my symptoms in easy to understand ways, and kept up on my progress weekly.

    I can't write this review without applauding the entire team - I love the front desk staff! I am always welcomed with smiles and greeted by name. I feel so fortunate to have found a clinic that is dedicated to making the process of healing so enjoyable. It is more than just a chiropractor office - it is a community! Thank you Dr.Lam and the entire team :)

  • Katie T.

    I came to the clinic for persistent neck and shoulder pain and frequent migraines. I have had these concerns for years and have tried other treatment; none of it seemed to make any lasting changes. Since coming to the clinic, the pain has melted away and I have not had any of my previous migraines. The team at BetterBack is amazing. The chiropractors are skilled and explain every step of what they are doing. The receptionists are kind and caring and I feel very welcome in this space. I would highly recommend anyone to this clinic.

  • Steve L.

    I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Lam. I went to see him for neck rehabilitation, and his treatment was extremely effective. He is very professional, attentive, and explained everything clearly throughout the process. Thanks to his care, my neck has improved a lot. I highly recommend Dr. Lam to anyone who needs rehabilitation treatment.

    I had horrible shoulder pain and experienced migraines almost daily. I’ve been seeing Dr. Lam and his team for the past month. With a customized treatment plan that includes adjustments, traction, and at-home exercises, I no longer have migraines and have reduced shoulder pain. I also found out that I have scoliosis. Dr. Lam has excellent bedside manner and keeps me well informed. :)

  • Gary N.

    Dr. Lam is my most trusted Chiro. I've worked with them on and off (as life gets busy) for several years. He is truly devoted to his craft and doesn't sell unneeded things. I'm a forever client of Dr. Lam's for when I need Chiro.

    I always watch how well he connects with his clients- they love him!

    He also has the most knowledge out of any Chiro i've seen- he has a long term approach.

  • Ruby S.

    Dr. Lam is an excellent chiropractor. He helped me address my back problems in an attentive manor, and with a thorough plan. From the examination, treatment process, exercises, and home care, he shared information through out the process. Also, amazing support from the entire team at the Cedar Hill Sports Therapy - A Better Back Clinic. Great to know you are around if I need help !

  • Svetlana O.

  • Mark L.

    Dr Lam has been an excellent chiropractor. He has helped heal my back in a thoughtful and caring way. I have seen a great improvement with his adjustments, as well as using the at-home Pettibon system for spine rehab.

  • Esther W.

    Thanks Dr. Lam and his team. I have had back pain and muscle cramps in the past few months, my family recommended me to visit Cedar Hill Sports Therapy. Dr. Jam figured out I have Scoliosis, I felt relief after couple adjustments clinic with him. All the staffs are friendly and knowledgeable as well.

  • Dylan W.

    I came in about a month ago with back pain that was making it almost impossible to work with. Dr. Lam did X-rays of my back and found out that I have kyphosis. I have been doing traction treatments for the last month and my pain has gone from a constant 6/10 to almost no pain most days. For anyone dealing with back pain I cannot recommend this place enough.

  • Rogan R.

    I have been going to this clinic for over 2 years now and have had nothing but the best treatment. Dr. Jerry Lam has been incredible and always takes the time to walk through what may be causing pain/discomfort, how to continue recovery after the treatment, and ways to prevent it in the future. He always takes his time and makes sure to address all of my concerns (frequent sports injuries).

  • Tina B.

    I can't say enough about the care I received from Dr. Lam and the team! They really took time to understand my issues and help me to not only feel good after every appointment, but also how to have a healthy body and mind in long term. Highly recommend here!
