Acupuncture
Acupuncture is a specific tratment among Chinese medicine 5 branches. Well known and recognized in Quebec, it results from an in-depth knowledge of energetic physiology, namely the theory of meridians and its application. Through different methods of evaluation and treatment, the acupuncturist facilitates the circulation of energy (Qi) in the meridians and organs.
Chinese Herbs
The East Asian herbalism is a practice which is also based on energetic evaluation. The great Chinese medical tradition makes it the best transmitted, the most practiced and the most studied modality, for more than 2000 years until today. It has never stopped improving its efficiency and enriching with an increasingly vast clinical experience adapted to modern problems.
Tuina Massage
Tuina is a unique form of massage therapy that integrates myofascial release and craniosacral therapy with the theory of acupuncture meridians. A wide variety of manual techniques make it essential in the treatment of muscle and joint pain, but also for the integration of emotional charges and traumas accumulated in the body. Combined with Qigong, Tuina offers a complete postural and energetic realignment.
Your acupuncturist
On December 1, 2022, I will return to my practice in Montreal at the Montreal Gongfu Research Center with the intention of offering stable support to the community. Two main services will be offered: acupuncture integrated with tuina in the approach of Classical Chinese Medicine (Monday and Wednesday) and social acupuncture (Thursday evening). You are invited to make an appointment via the Centre’s online portal or by contacting the reception. The link and contact details can be found on the “Appointment” page of this site.
Since 2015, my practice has revolved around three main areas: Tuina massage, from the lineage of Vince Black, Kampo herbalism, from the lineage of Dr. Otsuka and acupuncture in the classical tradition of Jeffrey Yuen. The classical tradition allows an in-depth approach to your health issues by questioning both the physical and emotional aspects from a holistic perspective.
The 1st appointment is always done in acupuncture and includes the evaluation and the treatment. During this meeting, we initiate a dialogue to determine the most appropriate treatment plan for you. Depending on your needs and expectations, there will be the possibility of using one or more of the services offered.
