ACUPUNCTURIST
My name is Peter and I am a Registered Acupuncturist. I obtained a Bachelor’s of Bioscience from the University of Calgary followed by a Bachelor’s of Chinese Medicine from the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. I grew up in Calgary and have spent most of my life fascinated with healthcare and medicine.
I am also an avid sports fan, and am very passionate about watching the Flames, the NBA and the NFL. I also enjoy playing Volleyball and golf in my spare time. These different interests lead me to become a healthcare practitioner and has strongly shaped many of my beliefs such as the importance of having an active lifestyle to maintain long term health.
Furthermore, I believe everyone should be pain free in order to be able to purse an active lifestyle. Acupuncture is a great way to achieve those goals as it is not only very beneficial in dealing with pain and inflammation but it can also help to promote balance, reduce stress, and treat many chronic issues (insomnia, migraines, obesity etc.)
