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.
-
Are there any risks associated with acupuncture treatment?
Soreness and slight bleeding or bruises at the needle insertion points are occasional side effects. However, if you receive acupuncture from a qualified, licensed practitioner who uses sterile needles, the risks of acupuncture are minimal.
-
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.

Is Zen Shiatsu only for physical relief?
No. While Zen Shiatsu is wonderful for offering relief to physical ailments, I have helped many clients with depression, nervousness and anxiety, insomnia, anger and frustration, worry, and grief.
-
Do I need to talk during my treatment?
No. You will be asked questions about your condition during your assessment, before the treatment begins. Talking is kept to a minimum during treatment, unless you have something to discuss, or if I need more information and clarification.
It is important to note, however, that when working with the physical body during a Zen Shiatsu treatment, it is not uncommon for a client to feel emotions arise during a session. By using gentle, sensitive, and aware touch, I am also connecting with the energetic, mental, and emotional aspects of your being, which can be affected.
-
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!
