Acupuncture

Treatments offered include acupuncture, moxibustion, auricular acupuncture (widely used for mental health conditions such as addictions and ptsd), facial acupuncture, hot stone therapy, Chinese food nutrition guidance and qi gong and movement recommendations.

Remote treatments using bioenergy

In recent years I have trained in Bioenergy. This modality balances the energy field while addressing specific symptoms. It is helpful for pain relief, deep relaxation, headaches as well as conditions that can significantly weaken the body. I have experience using this after traumatic hip fracture, severe vomiting/diarrhea and migraine headaches. It is best done in a series of four sessions. However, during this time of COVID-19, one session is immeasurably helpful in reducing stress and anxiety in these uncertain times. I intuitively picked up information about the condition I am treating that I will share with you after the session. In the wellness industry for 30 years I have training and experience in a variety of treatment modalities including CranioSacral Therapy and Visceral Manipulation to name a few. Restorechi is a fusion of modern technology and Traditional Chinese Medicine which I am currently being trained in as a practitioner.

Naturopathic Medicine

Naturopathic medicine helps improve your symptoms by finding and addressing what is causing them. In order to find the root cause of your symptoms, initial appointments are approximately one hour in length and include a thorough history intake and any relevant physical exams. While some treatments may be initiated during the first visit, the majority of the treatment will be carried out in subsequent follow-up visits. Treatments are aimed at addressing you as a whole person, the root cause of your symptoms and work to best support your body's natural healing ability. They can include nutritional and lifestyle counseling, homeopathy, traditional chinese medicine, botanical medicine, massage and hydrotherpy. Each treatment plan is individualized to you as a person. It's all about what works best for you to help you be the best, most healthy version of yourself! Please note: Online treatments, aside from a free meet and greet, are currently available to Ontario residents only.
