Hi! My name is Dr. Virsika Yogeswaran. I am a Chiropractor at Step Up Massage and Rehab. I graduated from Western University with a BSc. in Biology and obtained my MSc. in Anatomy and Doctorate of Chiropractic from D’Youville University in Buffalo, NY. I’ve gathered a lot of experience working in both clinical and hospital settings like at the Erie County Medical Hospital and UB Neuroscience. Fun fact: I also did my internship here at Step Up as well! If you have any questions about Chiropractic and what I can do, feel free to reach out!

Why should patients choose you as their provider instead of others in the area?
Chiropractors are health care professionals who specialize in the treatment of neuromusculoskeletal conditions. I am able to provide a non-invasive, drug-free, hands-on treatment method for your present condition. I have experience treating a range of conditions. In regards to treatment, I do soft tissue release, adjustments, modalities, taping and much more. I will also be receiving my certification in Acupuncture as well for helping with any aches you may be experiencing but also so you can get some much needed relaxation. I have a passion for the work that I do and at the end of the day, my goal is to make sure you are obtaining your treatment goals.

What are the top 3 treatments that you specialize in?
I specialize in a variety of treatments as mentioned earlier, however my top three are adjusting (joint manipulation), myofascial release and rehab.

What are you proud of in your practice?
To keep it short, I love anatomy and learning about the human body. The way we move, function and heal – it always leaves me in awe. To be able to get someone back to doing what they love without feeling pain is ultimately why I chose this field. When I’m able to get rid of or ease a patient’s pain, I’m proud.

Which cases do you enjoy treating? Why?
I am very passionate about treating each client specific to their needs. If I had to choose a favourite, I enjoy treating neck and low back pain the most. With that being said, patients have presented with all kinds of conditions including: headaches, work and sports-related injuries, strains and sprains, TMJ dysfunctions and much more, all of which that I have experience treating.
