Dr. Sophia Lam, D.C. brings University of Bridgeport-trained chiropractic care to Bayside, Queens. We treat back pain, neck pain, sciatica, herniated discs, headaches, and more — with hands-on spinal adjustments, deep tissue neuromuscular therapy, therapeutic exercises, and nutritional support as part of patient care when appropriate. Some adjunctive therapies available include computerized decompression therapy and extracorporeal shockwave therapy.
Non-Surgical, Non-Invasive, and Drug-Free Holistic Approach
Specialized Chiropractic Services
Four core treatment modalities, individually tailored to your spine and your goals.
Deep Tissue Neuromuscular Therapy
Muscles, tissues, and fascia all play a huge role in balance within the musculoskeletal system and normal, pain-free ranges of motion in joints. This focused, hands-on therapy releases deep-seated tension and restores healthy, coordinated movement.
Therapeutic Exercises
Targeted, progressive movement designed to strengthen supporting muscles, improve stability, and help you maintain your results long after care.
Nutritional Support
Practical, whole-body nutritional guidance that supports tissue recovery, reduces inflammation, and reinforces your body's natural ability to heal — offered as part of patient care when appropriate.

When spinal nerves are no longer compressed, the body's natural healing systems get back to work — often with measurable results.
"I came in with chronic headaches and high blood pressure that medication couldn't fully control. After several sessions of chiropractic adjustment, my readings dropped from 153/98 to 127/83 — and the headaches stopped."
