Meet Dan

As a dedicated practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), I am committed to helping my patients achieve optimal health and wellness through the time-honoured techniques of acupuncture and related therapies.

My training also included in-depth study of Western biomedical sciences, ensuring a well-rounded approach to patient care. This includes:
- Anatomy

Clinical Experience
A cornerstone of my education was the completion of over 500 hours of supervised clinical training. This hands-on experience allowed me to refine my skills and develop a patient-centered approach to treatment.
My Approach
I believe in the holistic principles of TCM, which view the body as an interconnected system. By addressing imbalances and promoting the flow of qi (vital energy), we can unlock your body's natural healing potential.
Each treatment plan is tailored to your unique needs, drawing from my diverse toolkit of TCM techniques. Whether you're seeking relief from chronic pain, stress management, or support for overall wellness, I'm here to guide you on your journey to better health.
