Thanks for your interest in the services I provide from my practice in Mississauga – a combination of Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), Bioenergetic Testing and Nutritional Counselling. Here, you’ll find each of these explained in a little more detail. Please note that in addition to Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), I also provides Needleless Acupuncture treatments for those who wish to experience the benefits of Acupuncture but who are averse to needles.
In addition to treating patients for a range of health conditions, I also have additional hands-on training in Pain Relief, Fertility issues, Cancer and Stroke Recovery. Please refer to Conditions Treated, Pain Relief, Fertility, Cancer and Stroke Recovery for further information on these areas of treatment.
