As someone who lived in chronic pain for years, with very little access to the proper tools for healing, she began to seek knowledge and tools from others. Doing so, has allowed her to understand the plight of living in chronic pain/dysfunction.
Through her journey, Victoria learned a lot about the nervous system and how the body can hold onto stress, emotional pain, and/or physical trauma. She has been able to recognize the way her body was compensating, guarding, or storing and this has allowed her to work well with clients to help them unravel their own compensation patterns and pain cycles.
Victoria has a multifaceted approach and intuitive touch that allows her to tailor the massage to the individuals needs and their nervous system.
Currently, Victoria is certified in trauma-informed care, Hanna Somatic Exercise, and Cupping. She is always continuing to enhance her knowledge with the focus of Rehabilitation Exercise, Somatics, and Therapeutic Massage in order retraining the mind to reconnect to the body.

Being registered with the College ensures that I adhere to the highest professional standards.

Acupuncture as a Complementary Therapy: Acupuncture is a versatile therapy that can be used alone or in conjunction with other modalities. Each treatment is carefully tailored to address the unique set of symptoms presented by the individual. I gently use sterile stainless-steel needles, and depending on the case, may incorporate electrical stimulation, ion pumping cords, or Rapid Release for muscle tightness. There is minimal discomfort associated with acupuncture, however, everyone’s comfort level is different. In your customized session, I take the time to alleviate any anxieties or apprehensions about the process and treatment itself.
Versatile Treatment Options: Acupuncture is not limited to specific conditions; it can be exclusively used or combined with other modalities. Some commonly treated conditions include pain (both acute and chronic), headaches (including migraines and hormonal headaches), and women's health concerns such as menstrual and menopausal issues. While these are common areas of focus, there are numerous other conditions that acupuncture can address effectively.
Low Risk, Great Benefits: One of the key advantages of choosing acupuncture is its low risk and minimal side effects. When combined with other modalities, it has the potential to yield remarkable benefits. Whether you are seeking relief from a specific ailment or looking to enhance your overall well-being, acupuncture can be a valuable addition to your healthcare routine.
Holistic Approach: I am grateful for the opportunity to build a strong patient-practitioner relationship. Beyond the treatment room, I am dedicated to assisting you in your health journey. This includes providing guidance on lifestyle adjustments, dietary choices, and self-care techniques to complement the benefits achieved during our acupuncture sessions.
Thank you for considering me for your acupuncture holistic health needs. I look forward to being a partner in your journey towards total wellness.
Feel free to reach out to discuss how acupuncture can contribute to your overall health and vitality!
