Dr. Ya Yuan Cheng is a licensed Acupuncturist and Doctor of Chiropractic. She comes from a very extensive line of oriental medicine practitioners and is a fifth generation practitioner in her family!
Starting from the young age of 10, she would travel all over the province with her mother (also an oriental medicine practitioner) to provide free clinic services to those who are less fortunate. She learned early on that this was what she wanted to do when she grew up.
Dr. Cheng immigrated from Taiwan to the U.S. after completing high school. She attended University of California, Berkeley where she earned her B.S. degree in Integrative Biology. She furthered her studies at Southern California University of Health Sciences and graduated Valedictorian of her class for her Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine as well as achieving high honors for her Doctorate degree in Chiropractic.
After receiving her degrees, she was invited to teach at her alma mater as an instructor in anatomy, physical therapy, and chiropractic technique classes. She also volunteered at Help for Brain-Injured Children (HBIC) in Whittier, CA. She began her practice in 2008 in the greater LA and Orange County.
