Relieve pain, reduce stress, and quicken rehabilitation with veteran Toronto practitioner Daniel (T’agyol) Adler.
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.

Are you able to help me if I’m in the “red” pain zone?
Yes. In fact, most of my clients seek treatment when they are in the “red zone”. This happens either when a problem has just occurred or they have been living with and enduring it until it has become overwhelmingly difficult.
Ideally, however, when there is a specific problem you should book treatment when you are in the “early orange zone”. This will make it easier to return to the green zone.

-
Do you offer facial acupuncture treatments?
Yes, I offer Acupuncture Facial Rejuvenation treatment, which is different to cosmetic acupuncture. Ask me for more if you are interested!
-
How much do herbs cost?
The herbs used in my Kampo practice cost approximately $40-50 per two-week dosage.
-
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.
-
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.
