Meet Dr Louis Chan

Dedication. Expertise. Passion.

Dr. Louis Chan is an integrative practitioner who combines his background in dentistry and Eastern medicine to address complex health issues.

Qualifications and Role:

He holds a BDS (Sydney) and a Master of Applied Science (Acupuncture). He is also a Chinese Medicine Practitioner and Licensed Acupuncturist, having earned a Master of Traditional Chinese Medicine (MTCM) from RMIT Melbourne. Dr. Chan is a Director and Board Member of the International Institute for Orthopostural Education (IIOPE), an international charity.

Clinical Focus and Approach:

Dr. Chan specialises in Temporomandibular Disorder (TMD) and associated Breathing Related Sleep Disorders. He operates as a chronic pain detective, concentrating on the underlying causes and issues of dysfunction, rather than simply treating symptoms.

His comprehensive approach integrates his skills in Dentistry, Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Biofeedback, and Capnography (measurement of CO₂). He utilises the Balance Method of acupuncture and laser acupuncture to help guide patients, especially children, into a deeply relaxed, parasympathetic state (rest and digest mode) to promote healing and restore balance. He has refined a hybrid model that uses objective data from ETCO₂ monitoring to validate and enhance traditional practices like Qi regulation and breathwork.
