About Me

---

Hi, I'm Alex! Coming from a long family lineage of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Practitioners, I am a 4th generation TCMP so as many say, it's in my blood.            

A little about my background - I graduated from the University of Toronto with an Honours Bachelor of Arts (East Asian Studies) and proceeded to further my skills as a TCM Practitioner, obtaining my Diploma of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner at Toronto School of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TSTCM), Diploma of Acupuncture at TSTCM and Integrative Acupuncture Certificate for the Treatment of Neuromyofacial Pain & Dysfunction at the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine/York University.

Throughout my years as a TCMP, I have had the opportunity to work at multiple private TCM clinics in Taiwan and Canada. I am currently in good standing as a registered TCM Practitioner & Acupuncturist (Ontario) with The College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner and Acupuncturists of Ontario (CTCMPO), and with the Ontario Osteopathic and Alternative Medicine Association (OOAMA). When I'm not practicing at the clinic, I am also a lecturer for acupuncture and herbs at AIM Academy, having previously taught at other schools in Toronto as well. You may also find me at health seminars, where I educate the public about preventative healthcare.  

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) approaches the body’s natural physiological balance from a holistic paradigm. Treating the body from a holistic approach, will have more sustaining effects once the body’s self regulating functions are able to be restored. This is unlike the isolated approach as different parts of the body play a role in a team-like fashion.

My practice focuses on pain management, internal medicine, functional fascia therapeutics, fertility, occupational injury, sports medicine, rehabilitation, preventative medicine, and lifestyle consultation. My approach to treatment does not stop at just treating your concerns. I value educating my patients and making sure that you understand your body and how to take care of it.
