Complimentary Meet & Greet
This free information session gives you an opportunity to ask any and all questions you might have about how working together works. I'll explain what the process will look like, answer all of your questions, and help you book your initial consultation (if you're ready - no pressure if you're not!)
15 minutes | free
Initial Consultation
This visit type is for new patients looking to start working with me in a 1:1 setting. During this visit, we will start by reviewing your health concerns and goals. We’ll do a deep dive into your health history, and current habits/routines. At the end of our visit we’ll discuss any relevant lab testing, and our initial treatment plan (dietary, lifestyle, supplement strategies). You will leave this visit with a clear understanding of how we will overcome your health challenges and help you to meet your health goals.
75 minutes | $275
Follow Up Visits
Your first follow up visit is typically scheduled 2-4 weeks after our initial consultation to review results of any lab testing, and to ensure our initial treatment plan is working for you. Subsequent follow up visits will be scheduled at a frequency that makes sense with your treatment plan and goals.
If you are an existing patient, but haven’t had a visit in a while, you can book an Extended Follow-Up Visit, or a Reassessment Visit as needed.
30-60 minutes | $105-$185
Lab Testing
We may decide to run some diagnostic testing as a part of your assessment. This can be anything from checking some basic blood markers, to running a comprehensive panel, or specialized testing.
Blood Work
If we are running blood work as a part of your assessment, you will be sent a requisition to take to any Lifelabs location to do your blood draw. Results are typically sent back to me within 24-48 hours. We will schedule a Follow Up visit to review the results together. You will always be sent a copy of your lab results - they are yours to keep!
Cost varies, but you will always be informed on the cost prior to your testing
Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been used in traditionally for thousands of years to improve health and reduce disease. Modern research is confirming its safety and efficacy for a wide variety of health concerns. Acupuncture visits are conducted in-person at my Toronto/Etobicoke clinic location.
Fertility Support Acupuncture
Acupuncture can be used to support your natural fertility. I typically see women weekly for acupuncture, and the points change based on where you are at in your cycle, and what you have noticed with your cycle that month. In the follicular phase of your cycle, acupuncture can improve blood flow to the ovaries, support estrogen production and help with ovulation. In the the luteal phase of your cycle, acupuncture can improve blood flow to the uterus, support progesterone production, and the growth and maturation of the uterine lining. It can also be used to reduce stress and anxiety, especially during the 2 week wait.

IVF Support Acupuncture
Acupuncture may improve your IVF transfer outcomes. A 2001 study found that when acupuncture was performed before and after an IVF transfer, 34 of 80 patients became pregnant (42.5%), compared with 21 out of 80 patients in the control group (26.3%). Acupuncture is thought to improve outcomes by increasing blood flow to the uterus and reducing stress and anxiety. It also alleviates pain and reduces cramping. I can meet you at your fertility clinic and perform acupuncture both pre-transfer and post-transfer. I am available to travel to clinics within the GTA.

Pregnancy Acupuncture
Acupuncture is safe to use during pregnancy, and can be a helpful tool to reduce some of the not-so-lovely effects of pregnancy, such as nausea, constipation, heartburn and insomnia. It’s also helpful to reduce stress and anxiety.

Stress Reduction Acupuncture
Acupuncture can help to reduce stress and anxiety and improve mood by helping to calm down our sympathetic nervous system (aka. our fight or flight response), and help turn on our parasympathetic nervous system (aka. our rest and digest response).
