Aly Jensen, Registered Acupuncturist
Alycia (Aly) was first introduced to Acupuncture as a patient after a traumatic car accident she experienced in her childhood. The trauma left Aly in chronic pain and due to surgical complications she also experienced digestive issues, stress and anxiety. Aly wanted to find an alternative to alleviating the pain without the reliance on narcotic pain medications, or nerve blocking injections - which led her to discovering the benefits of acupuncture.
During her experience, Aly learned that Acupuncture was great for alleviating pain, effective in regulating her digestion, all the while bringing down her stress and anxiety levels. Acupuncture has provided Aly with countless benefits over the years and has empowered her to take back control of her health.
She completed her training at the SSC Acupuncture Institute, graduating with high honours, and completed additional certifications in Facial Rejuvenation & Cosmetic Acupuncture, Advanced Needling Techniques, and Shiatsu Massage.
She has a special interest in treating women's health issues including fertility & pregnancy, wrinkles, menopause, and symptoms related to PMS.
Aly believes that Acupuncture is an integral component of any person’s overall healthcare needs.
