Herbal Medicine + Zen Shiatsu + Acupuncture
Welcome to Daniel Adler Clinic
I offer my services as an experienced and certified practitioner of traditional East Asian medicine (TEAM) based in Toronto, Ontario.
In my practice I work with individuals seeking alternative medicine options to facilitate self-healing and to overcome illness and disease.
As a TEAM practitioner I use herbal remedies and the techniques of Zen Shiatsu bodywork and acupuncture to help you restore balance and harmony to your body and mind.
I am here when you’re ready. Please don’t hesitate to get in touch.

How often should I schedule treatments?
If we are working with a specific situation I will recommend a course of treatment and inform you when to rebook. If you are not experiencing a change after three sessions, we need to reassess and perhaps consider other approaches and/or practitioners.
If you are coming for health maintenance / vitality promotion the key is regularity, not frequency. In other words, it is better to come once a month than erratically. This allows us to develop a therapeutic regimen and relationship. If you wish to come more frequently (weekly, every two weeks) that is even better, but it must make sense to you.
With that said, I will always work with you where you are at, whether that means on a regular weekly schedule or once every few months or even years.
-
Can herbal medicine be taken when following vegetarian, vegan, and other specialised diets?
Yes! All of your dietary needs will be discussed and considered during our assessment, however these herbs are safe for all dietary restrictions.
-
Are there “take-home” tasks after a Zen Shiatsu treatment?
Yes. If appropriate I recommend dietary changes, exercise, and breathing practices.
-
What should I wear during my treatment?
This is ultimately up to you, though please do not wear jeans during your treatment.
Some people like to wear loose-fitting clothing, like track pants or shorts and a t-shirt. Others strip to their underwear and choose to be draped with a sheet.
-
How long are your sessions?
Appointment times are scheduled for 1 hour, with longer 75-minute initial sessions for acupuncture and herbal consultations.
You can find full details on the Rates page.
-
How do I pay for my treatment?
Payment is accepted by Interac e-Transfer, cash, or cheque.
For e-Transfer, please send your payment to tagyoladler04@gmail.com.
