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.

Can I explore herbal medicine on my own?
I strongly discourage exploring herbal medicine without professional input.
In order to determine which herbs are best for your needs, I will inquire about your ailment and your lifestyle to better understand your body as a whole.
The formulas and herbs discussed in our sessions are part of a much larger system. They may be appropriate for certain individuals who suffer from the conditions described, but are not necessarily the best choice for everyone in that situation.
-
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.
-
Are medicinal herbs safe to be used in conjunction with modern pharmaceuticals?
Yes, except when explicitly understood not to. Then absolutely not. This is another reason to never explore herbal medicine on your own.
-
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.
-
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.
-
What do you mean by the term “bodywork”?
Bodywork to me means working with the human body in a deeply connected manner, using the methods of Zen Shiatsu, acupuncture, and herbs in order to correct imbalances and bring about positive change.
