At a young age he met master Liu Ming with whom he learned acupressure Tui Na massage and trained in internal martial arts such as Chen Style Tai Chi, Yiquan, Baguazhang and Qi Gong. He moved to Vancouver in September 2016, and completed his training as a Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner and Registered Acupuncturist. Thanks to his many years of practice, he incorporates mindfulness to offer patients deep presence and attention tailoring each treatment with a warm and integrative approach. Alex offers a variety of treatment modalities ranging from Tui Na (acupressure/deep tissue) massage, Acupuncture based on TCM diagnostic methods and treatment strategies, cupping (with or without needles), electro stimulation acupuncture and Gua Sha (scraping). Some of the conditions he enjoys treating the most are sport injuries, musculoskeletal conditions, chronic or acute pain, insomnia, digestive issues and emotional imbalances. He strives to make his patients feel more centered, peaceful and present after each treatment. |
