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.
