Owner, R. TCMP. P
Hello, I'm Erin Alexander, a registered practitioner with the CTCMA and ATCMA. My journey into Traditional Chinese Medicine began at the Canadian College of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and Pacific Rim College, where I immersed myself in the study of this ancient healing art. After gaining experience at several Victoria acupuncture clinics, I took over as the owner of Spring Wellness.
My passion lies in the field of healing and Chinese Medicine. I strongly believe in treating the whole person, focusing on restoring balance to both the body and mind while emphasizing prevention. Growing up surrounded by the beauty of nature, I developed a profound respect and love for its intricate workings, which Chinese medicine beautifully embodies.
I use various techniques, including traditional needling, cupping therapy, tui na, gua sha, auriculotherapy, yang shen, and herbal medicine. Over the years, I have helped patients find relief from a wide range of conditions, such as headaches, insomnia, chronic and acute pain, bipolar disorder, depression, and digestive complaints. I also have a special interest in addressing emotional/mental health, women's health concerns, and providing support during pregnancy and early childhood.
I firmly believe in the remarkable capacity of our bodies to heal themselves. By combining my knowledge of Chinese and Western medicine, along with intuition and a compassionate heart, I strive to uncover what your body and spirit truly need.
If you're ready to discover the transformative power of Chinese Medicine, please contact me to schedule an appointment.

Licensed Acupuncturist
Xiaopeng (Frank) Feng is a Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac.) who brings a lifetime of connection to Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) to his practice.
Growing up in China, Frank was immersed in the "living tradition" of TCM, watching his family use herbal remedies, moxibustion, and cupping to treat everyday ailments. This early exposure sparked a deep passion that led him to pursue rigorous systemic training in TCM, grounding his practice in the classical philosophies of "preventative care" (treating disease before it arises) and the vital connection between mind and body.
In the clinic, Frank specializes in addressing the physical toll of modern lifestyles. He focuses on treating "Tech Neck" (cervical tension), digital eye strain, chronic lower back pain, "Sitting Disease" (sedentary lifestyle syndrome), frozen shoulder and other sports injuries. He understands that mechanical issues often have deeper roots, and he utilizes a combination of acupuncture, Tui Na (massage), Gua Sha, Cupping, and Electro-acupuncture to restore function and mobility.
Beyond musculoskeletal pain, Frank places a strong emphasis on nervous system regulation. He helps patients navigate the physical effects of emotional stress and anxiety, guiding the body back to a state of rhythm and relaxation. He carefully tailors each session to the patient's unique constitution, striving to provide relief that is both immediate and lasting.
