Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) originates back 3,000-5,000 years ago in China. It is one of the oldest and most long-standing health care systems in the world and is globally gaining more popularity. TCM utilizes a combination of tools such as acupuncture, personalized blend of Chinese herbal medicine tailored for your needs, cupping, guasha, and more to help your body find its balance. From chronic pain, autoimmune diseases to boosting your immune system. Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner's and Doctor's look at the body as a whole: mind, body, spirit.

Acupuncture is the gentle insertion of very fine sterile needles at specific points on the body (over 400 points). This process stimulates the movement of energy within the body and allows natural healing to take place. Modern research has shown that when a needle is inserted at specific acupuncture points on the body, there are corresponding changes that occur in the brain.

Physiotherapy Assessment

A physiotherapy assessment will include a thorough history-taking to better understand the current complaint/injury and previous injuries that may be contributing to the current issue.

The assessment will then continue with observations of posture, and specific tests and measurements. The physiotherapist will use the objective findings, along with the patient's history, to clinically reason and provide a diagnosis of the injury.

Physiotherapy Treatment

Treatment techniques that may be included are: functional dry needling, soft tissue techniques, joint mobilizations, and taping.

Massage therapy is therapeutic by nature, it optimizes health and well-being by acting on the muscular, nervous and circulatory systems. The foundation of massage therapy is the manipulation of soft tissues of the body including muscles, connective tissues, tendons, ligaments and joints. These manipulations help to alleviate pain, assist injury recovery, increase mobility and promote relaxation. It is these treatments that are utilized to counteract the pressures of daily life that tend to wear down both the body and mind. Massage therapy has a positive effect on the body’s natural healing processes and is a great addition to your everyday healthcare.

Our Chiropractor practices a holistic, patient-centered approach. All visits include a thorough functional assessment in order to generate a clear diagnosis. It is important to figure out the root of the problem, not just where the pain is. Having the right diagnosis allows her to execute an effective treatment plan. All treatments include hands-on manual therapy and are always one-on-one.

POSTURAL ASSESSMENT: Assessing the natural position of our body tells me a lot about the habitual movement patterns of the individual. This gives vital information regarding the biomechanical imbalances that are the root of the problem.

ACTIVE RELEASE TECHNIQUE (ART) ®ART® is a patented, state of the art soft tissue system/movement-based massage technique that treats problems with muscles, tendons, ligaments, fascia, and nerves. Small traumas and/overused muscles can create a build-up of scar tissue. This can cause muscles to become shorter and weaker, tension on tendons can cause tendonitis and nerves can become trapped. This can cause reduced range of motion, loss of strength, and pain. If a nerve is trapped you may also feel tingling, numbness, and weakness. ART is a hands-on technique that treats the abnormal tissues to remove scar tissue using tension to the specific muscle combined with precise patient movements.

CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS & JOINT MOBILIZATIONS: Loss of range of motion or restriction of movement may be caused by poor joint mechanics. Hands-on or instrument-assisted (*Activator) gentle manipulation or mobilization of the joint can help restore normal, pain-free motion.EXERCISE PRESCRIPTIONExercise is a key component in the healing process. Retraining the body to follow correct movement patterns helps to maintain the effects of the treatments and help your body recalibrate for optimal performance.

Osteopathy is a safe and effective patient centred manual therapy which works in combination with the individuals own homeostatic mechanisms to help restore balance and optimal health.

Counselling is a form of “talk therapy,” where the client has a safe, non-judgmental, confidential environment to talk about their issues, problems, feelings, intrusive thoughts and all types of challenges. The counsellor is there to guide this journey, helping the client discover the connections between past experiences and present feelings and behaviours.

Counselling can help overcome and cope with depressive and anxious feelings, grief, different types of trauma. It can also help to see clarity in life-changing situations, relationship issues, life transitions. Clients can seek guidance with gender issues, burn-out, bullying and all other challenges in life.

The counselling process can help the client understand the person for who they are and their frame of reference. During the therapeutic process, the client always discovers hidden resources and powers to help them overcome their challenges. Counselling is a very effective therapy in all its forms: individual-, couple- or group therapy.

Some clients might fear it is difficult to talk about feelings and negative thoughts, but counselling is more than that. The counselling process can incorporate different techniques, other than just talking to have an impact on the client, such as drawing, movement, diagrams, analogies or even fantasies.

As a counsellor, I truly believe what Irvin Yalom wrote in one of his books: “Perhaps symptoms are messengers of a meaning and will vanish only when their message is comprehended.” Understanding the messages of our mind and body is essential to a healthy life.

There are times when we face challenges and pressures of life, and we are left wondering how to move forward, towards thriving, instead of “just getting by.”

There are relationships where we feel we are playing games, stuck in a never-ending cycle.

I believe everyone has the strength and resources required to overcome these challenges, and therapy can be the key to unlocking and utilizing them.

My approach is person-centered; I focus on intrapersonal and interpersonal dynamics. Every client is unique, and each therapy is an individual journey.

I believe the therapist-client relationship is fundamental to healing, and the therapist’s office should be a safe place for everyone. I welcome clients from all backgrounds and experiences.

I have seen how physical and mental health goes hand in hand. The state of our mind affects our physical health, and our physical issues have an effect on our mental state.

I am passionate about working with adults and adolescents. I believe that my business background (15+ years in banking, start-ups, and the public sector) enhances my understanding of the complexities people face and my ability to address personal or professional challenges meaningfully.

Therapy takes time and hard work, but it is entirely worth it. I will support you in your healing journey and work with you in an open-minded and non-judgmental manner to explore your most sensitive and difficult issues.

I have experience in working with a wide variety of challenges and concerns such as: Depression Anxiety Self-esteem Life transitions Burn-out Stress Career guidance Questions of Sexuality, Gender

I also worked with youth groups, parent groups, educator groups, and also with executive teams.

My training background includes:

Master of Arts in Counselling Psychology from the University of Yorkville, Canada

Certification of Transactional Analysis from the Intact Academy, courses led by Drs Sari von Polje, Netherlands and Hungary

Master of Sciences in Economics from the Corvinus University of Budapest, Hungary

On a more personal note:

I love spending time with my three kids and my husband hiking, traveling and just being together (all these activities are pretty noisy). I also love to fly small airplanes and ski. Ever since I was a child, I was passionate about fencing; I still fence, and now I am a Board of Directors member of Fencing Canada. I would like to learn how to golf in the near future, and I have some DIY projects in mind that I never dared to start yet…

Hey, wellness warrior! My name is Andi, your go-to registered acupuncturist and guiding light, on a mission to blend ancient wisdom with a modern touch. My journey into Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) wasn’t your typical “Eureka!” moment. Nope- it was more like a slow burn in the cubicle of my 9-5, fuelled by my own quest for answers and healing. I began to feel that Western medicine lacked the individual approach I found in TCM, and quickly realized that my growing interest for medicine should not be overlooked. So, armed with curiosity and a desire to help others find their balance too, I gave up the position that would lead me to my dream corporate job and dove headfirst into the world of TCM. With one of three board exams successfully completed, I am well on my way to becoming a board certified Chinese Medicine Doctor.

Here’s the deal: your body? It’s got this incredible innate wisdom to heal itself, and my job is to help educate and empower you to tap into that magic. Consider me your wellness sherpa, guiding you through the peaks and valleys of your health journey with compassion, knowledge, and the magic of TCM. To me, it’s not just about chasing your symptoms—it’s about getting to the root and nurturing the whole package. My view of health is through a holistic lens, which entails relaxing the physical, nurturing the mental, and tending to the soul. When one pillar is affected, the others are thrown off balance. I understand healing happens in waves, and adapt my approach to meet you where you’re at. Together, we will bring awareness to your symptoms (your body’s cues that something is out of balance) and connect the dots between your health concerns to uncover the root cause of your health disturbances. So whether you’re navigating the hustle and bustle of city life or shredding the mountains, I’m here to support you every step of the way to reclaiming your true health.

Qualifications: * Registered Acupuncturist with CTCMA * Four year Diploma of Traditional Chinese Medicine

“Movement is medicine”

Kira was born and raised in Vancouver, BC and moved to Whistler in 2015 being drawn by the mountains, the lifestyle, and the like-minded and active community.

Kira’s interest in physiotherapy developed out of her life-long participation and love for sports and physical activity. From a young age she was constantly on the move with a fascination for how the body works. Her early years were spent in competitive gymnastics and she transitioned to playing ultimate frisbee in high school. She was a member of the Canadian National Ultimate Frisbee Program for 14 years competing at world championships all over the world- from Australia to Latvia and everywhere in between. With participation in sport came injuries and this made her realize the importance of physiotherapy in injury rehabilitation and injury prevention in order to be able to continue to participate and perform at a high level.

Prior to attending physio school at the University of British Columbia, Kira completed her Bachelor’s in Human Kinetics, as well as a Masters of Science with her thesis research focusing on sports injury prevention. Her Masters degree influences her physiotherapy approach as she has a passion for trying to get to the root cause of injuries to prevent recurrence.

Kira’s assessment approach includes thorough postural and movement analysis. Her treatments combine movement retraining and personalized exercise prescription with manual therapy techniques, such as joint mobilizations and IMS, to assist patients in reaching their goals.

Kira has been fortunate to have brought her interests in travel and physiotherapy together with work opportunities overseas. As a physiotherapy student she went on placement in Sri Lanka where she got to work with an interdisciplinary team, and also learn about the philosophies and practices of Ayurvedic medicine and how these could be integrated with Western medicine practices. She also had the opportunity to work in rural New Zealand in early 2021 which again combined her love of travel, physiotherapy, and adventure.

Kira is registered with the College of Physical Therapists of BC (CPTBC) and holds additional certifications in functional dry needling, orthopaedic manual therapy, concussion and vestibular management, and the thoracic ring approach.

When not practicing physio, Kira can be found enjoying mountain biking, hiking, trail running, or working on her greenhouse garden in the summer; and snowboarding, skiing, or splitboarding in the winter.

Clinical interests include: post surgical rehabilitation, knee injuries, injury prevention, movement retraining and exercise prescription.”

Pain and disease are your body’s way of communicating with your brain to let you know that something is out of balance and that it needs assistance. Chinese medicine seeks to restore that balance at the root. Katherine believes that to follow every single ‘rule’ and health mandate out there is unrealistic and does not often lead to a fulfilling life. Health and medicine should enrich your life, not be a chore. Growing up in Hong Kong gave her an early introduction to Chinese medicine. Katherine soon developed a strong appreciation of the value of both Eastern and Western medicine and the realization that the pair of them, when used together, is a pretty powerful tool. As a writer, contributor and member of the editorial team at Medicinal Roots Magazine, she is determined to spread awareness of the true scope of Chinese medicine. To the TCM community she brings with her ten years of sports industry experience teaching skiing and yoga. She treats everything but has a particular interest in sports medicine, gut and digestive issues, stress-related conditions, women’s health and emotional health.

Holistic Massage / Integrative Bodywork, and Frequency Healing

Holistic healing of mind, body, and spirit for high vibrational living.

Nada offers restorative and deep tissue aromatherapy massage treatments. Integrative bodywork combines different modalities and styles of massage to deliver personalized, results-oriented treatments.

Holistic Massage is treating the individual as a whole and addressing the root cause and interconnectedness behind symptoms and imbalances. These treatments focus on creating balance and correcting distortion / compensation in the body, and addressing the physical manifestation of mental and emotional factors.

Cellular Memory can store memories outside of the brain and every cell in our body can be affected by everything that has ever happened to us. Physical + impact injuries as well as emotional trauma can transfer energy into the body that can be “stuck” long after the trauma has passed, creating pain, inflammation, and constriction that can remain in the body until it is released.

Nada uses high-quality therapeutic grade essential oils in her treatments which offer benefits physically, emotionally, and mentally. She also often integrates pain relief products into her treatments such as herbal pain salve, magnesium gel, arnica oil, Chinese medicine liniments/tape etc. to give each client a customized treatment tailored around their needs and goals, using products that will maximize their results.

Nada also recently started working as an Energy-Frequency Practitioner with a quantum/frequency device that is approved by Health Canada for medical use. It uses Individualized Microcurrent Frequencies to harmonize the body’s bioenergetic field, and support optimal health, vitality and overall wellbeing

The device can be used to analyze and detect imbalances in our physical, mental and emotional energetic fields and recommend specific programs and frequencies to bring them back into balance. Massage treatments with frequency healing are available.

* Please note that Dr Dom is no longer taking new patients at this time. *** ##“I believe that true health encompasses mind, body & spirit. If one gets affected the others lose their balance and the wheel of health starts to break down. Traditional Chinese Medicine looks at the patient as a whole. I help my patients by giving them the individual care and treatments that they need while giving them tools and lifestyle advice that can help them live in a healthy balance.” - Dr. Dominique Vallée**

Dr. Vallée has been exposed to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) most of her life.

The individual approach and being able to treat the root of the problem instead of the symptoms are what attracted Dominique to pursue her studies in TCM here in Vancouver.

Dr. Vallée assesses each patient by connecting with them personally, by asking specific questions while taking the pulse and looking at the tongue for a complete understanding and diagnosis before starting the treatment.
