Where can I park during my treatment?
There is street parking along Dupont St, as well as on Shaw St (perpendicular to Dupont) and also Melville Ave (just south of Dupont).
You can find a map on the Clinic Location page.
-
Are there “take-home” tasks after a Zen Shiatsu treatment?
Yes. If appropriate I recommend dietary changes, exercise, and breathing practices.
-
Which public transit stations are near the clinic?
The closest subway stations are Dupont, Christie, and Ossington.
It is a 10-15 minute walk from each of these stations to the clinic, and there are frequent buses you can catch.
-
Does acupuncture hurt?
Acupuncture is generally not considered to be a painful treatment, and I practice a very gentle style of acupuncture.
Some clients may feel a slight prick or sensation when the needles are inserted, but this sensation is usually brief and fades quickly. It’s not nearly like giving blood or stubbing your toe!
-
Can herbal medicine help with my menstruation issues?
Yes! When working with women with menstrual concerns, fertility, and other gynaecological issues, it is not uncommon to prescribe three or four formulas to be taken at different stages of your cycle.
See more information about herbal medicine and menstruation here.
-
What are acupuncture needles like?
Acupuncture needles are very thin, and rarely cause any discomfort. The needles used at Daniel Adler Clinic are made of stainless steel, and are single-use/disposable.
