NUTRITIONAL THERAPY
Hi, I'm Alex (she/her), a Registered Doctor of Acupuncture and Functional Nutritional Therapist.
​
I offer compassionate, judgment free acupuncture and TCM health care that meets you where you're at. My services include one-on-one appointments and community acupuncture treatments.
I welcome those that are new to acupuncture, nervous about needles, or who have otherwise been looking for a safe entry point into acupuncture care. And I follow a consent-led, trauma-informed model to create this safe space. As a member of Skipping Stone's Trans-Affirming Network, I have undertaken training and an ongoing commitment to trans and gender diverse inclusivity in my practice.​
​
Community Acupuncture is a lower-cost alternative to private treatment because multiple people receive treatment in one larger room rather than private rooms.
