Hi! My name is Olivia I’m a registered acupuncturist. I’ve always had a passion for helping others, and a keen interest in the human body and healthcare. With a strong athletic background, I pursued a bachelor’s degree in Kinesiology at the University of Prince Edward Island while also playing varsity hockey. As a kinesiologist, I was introduced to acupuncture and its incredible benefits. I was intrigued by it, and through research learned how acupuncture can help a variety of conditions, both physical (such as frozen shoulder, back pain) and mental (such as anxiety, depression). This discovery led me to pursue a career in acupuncture. I graduated with a diploma in acupuncture from The Canadian College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine in Halifax, NS. As I perform acupuncture, it continues to amaze me. There is always something new to discover and build on. I admire how the practice considers all aspects of an individual. That treatment plans can be specialized to the patient (even with a condition as ordinary as the common cold). Seeing patients experience positive effects and relief is a joy and incredibly rewarding. I incorporate both my Western and Eastern backgrounds to treatment, focusing on finding the root of the health issue and taking the whole patient into consideration. I’m dedicated to providing quality care, comfort, and a healing environment to my patients. I love being able to offer treatment to those who have limited options otherwise. So I’m excited to team up with Pelvico to help provide care for women and patients with pelvic/orthopaedic conditions.
