Discovering Chiropractic Care means discovering: “Health-Balance-Life-Energy”
Dr. Yamilette Lopez (Dr. Yamy), owner of Vitality Family Chiropractic and Wellness Center, is a licensed Chiropractor who focus in auto injury, pediatric, prenatal, adult, and sports injury. Vitality’s mission is to enable health and well-being by serving the patient structurally, nutritionally, and energetically.
Dr. Yamy is a native from Puerto Rico where she received her Bachelor’s Degree in Industrial Microbiology and pursued her Master’s Degree in Bioengineering. While working towards her degree, she knew she wanted to actively educate and help others achieve a better quality of life through health and wellness. As part of a military family stationed in Jacksonville, she seized the opportunity of becoming a Chiropractor to achieve this goal. She tackled a daily four-hour commute to Palmer College of Chiropractic located in Port Orange for four years while mothering her three young daughters Victoria, Valeria, and Valentina all during a military deployment. This played a vital role when trying to find a name for her clinic; she looked to the most important people in her life: her daughters.
All three of Dr. Yamy’s girl’s names start with the letter V, so she named her clinic VITALITY. Vitality is described as the state of being strong and active; full of energy and strength. A word that thoroughly described all three of her girl’s personalities.
Dr. Yamy is a birth doula and has a certification in Webster Technique which is applied while providing prenatal care. In her pursuit to furthering her education, she is also pursuing a Certification in Pediatric Chiropractic through the International Chiropractic Pediatric Association. This dives into the unique needs of children’s development and childhood neurosensory disorders. Dr. Yamy will be taking boards soon and become a licensed acupuncturist in summer 2019. Acupuncture is a system of integrative medicine that involves pricking the skin or tissues with needles, used to alleviate pain and to treat various physical, mental, and emotional conditions. It is known to improve the body’s functions and promote the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific acupuncture points, or acupoints.
Dr. Yamy is proficient in multiple hands-on chiropractic techniques that focus on treating auto injuries, lower back pain, neck pain, shoulder pain, muscle pain, sciatic pain, arthritis, poor posture and more. She has an individualized approach and focuses on contributing to the proper function of the body’s nervous system to allow it to maximize its healing abilities.
