As a CTCMA Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac.) Nina has a deep respect for the art of holistic healing and believes that health is a journey that starts from within. Inspired by her own experience as a patient of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Nina’s passion for acupuncture arises from its ability to empower the body’s internal resources and deliver lasting, non-invasive relief. After identifying the root cause of her patients health concerns, she uses acupuncture, gua sha, cupping, and moxibustion as tools that target mental, emotional and physical aspects of the whole person. She takes an approach that promotes healing and further allows her patients to rediscover and enjoy both health and vitality. Ninas special interests are cosmetic/facial acupuncture, graceful aging, and women’s health – particularly menopause – as well as migraine and pain therapy. In her spare time, Nina is an avid trail runner, enjoys swimming, surfing, time with her two very active sons and her dog.
