🌿 About Me: I am Wenya (Mia), a licensed acupuncturist with a unique blend of expertise in both clinical Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). My journey into the world of healing began with the rich influence of a family tradition deeply rooted in healthcare. Raised in an environment where the integration of Western medicine and TCM was embraced, my father, a specialist in internal medicine, played a pivotal role in shaping my passion for holistic well-being.

🎓 Educational Background: I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Clinical Western Medicine. The five year training provides me with a solid foundation in the principles of Western healthcare. Building upon this, I pursued specialized training in acupuncture at Vancouver career college, where I merged the wisdom of TCM with the scientific understanding of Western medicine. This dual background equips me to offer a comprehensive and integrative approach to healing.

💼 Professional Expertise: Specializing in acupuncture, I seamlessly integrate my knowledge of clinical Western medicine and TCM to provide well-rounded healthcare solutions. My expertise spans various conditions, from acute and chronic pain management to stress-related disorders, symptoms such as insomnia, Migraine, abnormal menstruation, infertility, digestion disorders caused by inner unbalance.

📍 What to expect for each session: by combining hot stone, acupressure, moxibustion, acupuncture, fire cupping, and electronic acupuncture, I’ll help you align your body, relieve muscle tension, and restore inner balance for holistic well-being. I may incorporate lifestyle recommendations, dietary guidance, and mindfulness practices into my treatment plans to support comprehensive well-being.
