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.

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.
-
Will my extended benefits cover your services?
It depends on the specific extended health benefits plan that you have. Some extended health benefits plans cover traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practitioners, while others do not. Some plans cover all of my services, others cover only some, for example acupuncture but not herbal medicine.
It is your responsibility to check with your insurance provider to find out what is covered under your specific plan.
-
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.
-
You say you practice a “gentle” style of acupuncture. Is it still effective?
Yes. My gentle approach does not compromise the quality or effectiveness of acupuncture treatment, and actually enhances it.
By focusing on gentleness and a “less is more” philosophy, I can create a more comfortable and relaxing experience for my client. This reduces the potential for discomfort during the treatment, making it easier for the client to remain relaxed and receptive to the therapeutic effects. A gentler approach often allows the body to respond more naturally and positively, promoting a smoother flow of energy, enhancing the overall effectiveness of the treatment.
-
Will my herbal medicine remedy work on the first try?
Sometimes, but not always. Some trial and error is to be anticipated in the initial prescription. Matching a formula to your situation is akin to a “lock and key”. The perfect formula opens up the solution for your problem.
-
What is your cancellation policy?
Please provide at least 24 hours notice if you need to cancel or reschedule your appointment.
If you do not provide at least 24 hours notice, or if you do not show up for your appointment, you will be charged the full amount of your scheduled treatment.
I value your business and appreciate your cooperation in adhering to this policy. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
