Dr. Ted Tang
An Impactful First Experience
A lifting injury when he was about 19 sent Dr. Tang in search of a solution. His persistent low back pain didn’t respond to medicine, and that’s when he went to the chiropractor.
“A combination of chiropractic and rehabilitation exercises brought me back to health. It was my first experience that showed me the world of alternative medicine, and led me to attend chiropractic school.”
Though he was unfamiliar with chiropractic care, Dr. Tang’s father worked as a surgeon, and it piqued his interest early on in health care. He would shadow his father and even observed surgeries when growing up.
To this day, Dr. Tang’s passion is learning, and he enjoys working with multidisciplinary practitioners every day at Health Quest Physicians Group that he can gain knowledge from.
We play an important role in the health care community. We’re specialists in musculoskeletal problems.”Dr. Ted Tang
An Extensive Natural Health Education
Dr. Tang attended Logan College of Chiropractic, graduating with honors. He immediately put his chiropractic education to use by joining Dr. Owens in practice. He’d learned many chiropractic techniques during school and was honored to be certified in the three primary techniques utilized: Diversified, Thompson and Activator®.
Additionally, he is certified in acupuncture. His physician father trained in acupuncture and Dr. Tang was always fascinated by the acupuncture model in his dad’s office that showed the meridians of the body. Dr. Tang uses the same model in his office today to educate patients about acupuncture.
Acupuncture is another alternative to medicine that gets patients better. Often, it helps them when other methods have failed.”
He’s also works with in Kinesiology tape, which is used on many of his patients who are athletes.
Dr. Tang works with all ages, especially senior citizens who may have dealt with health challenges for decades. He enjoys seeing them get relief through chiropractic care. It’s also easy to co-manage your case between multiple practitioners with all of them at a single location.
