Acupuncture is an ancient and holistic healing discipline that has been practiced for centuries to promote balance and harmony within the body. At our clinic, we are dedicated to providing expert acupuncture services that tap into the body's natural energy pathways to enhance well-being and address a variety of health concerns.

Acupuncture involves the insertion of small, disposable single-use needles inserted just under the surface of the skin into acupuncture points. The stimulation of these points helps to produce a reduction in pain, inflammation, and muscle spasms.

If you are not comfortable with needles then you can have Acupressure treatment which involves applying manual pressure to specific points on the body to promote wellness and alleviate various health issues.

Acupuncture/Acupressure can also improve circulation, repair immune function, aid detoxification, and help the body to heal itself.

Our Acupuncturists are members of the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of British Columbia.
