Michaela Gorman is a well experienced and educated practitioner that has been in the health and wellness industry for 10 years. She started as a Certified Holistic Nutritionist managing a health food store. During this time, she learned about western herbal medicines, supplements, and holistic nutrition approaches to healing. After supporting clients with nutrition, Michaela felt the nudge to work with people on a deeper level with a more hands-on approach. This is when she began to explore acupuncture, chinese herbal medicine and massage as a way to make this happen.

She graduated from both massage and acupuncture at the Canadian Institute of Traditional Chinese Medicine. There, she took a special interest in Chinese herbal therapy and was awarded a scholarship from Sageherb Biotechnology for outstanding clinical performance and excellence in the study of herbal medicine. She successfully passed both her board exams for Registered Acupuncturist in Alberta and Chinese Medicine Practitioner in Ontario.

After graduating, having dealt with psoriasis herself, she took a special interest in Dermatology and that is when she found Master Herbalist Mazin Al-Khafaji who is a world-renowned Chinese Medicine Dermatologist. She travelled to New York and Portland to learn from him on how to treat acute and chronic Dermatological diseases with Chinese herbs. After two years of study and passing an exam she gained her Diploma in Chinese Medicine Dermatology and is now a part of the International TCM Dermatology Association. Currently, she is continuing her studies with LearnSkin taking their Integrative Dermatology Program to offer more diet and supplementary support to her clients.

As an acupuncturist, Michaela takes her time to find the root cause of your ailments and uses a gentle, holistic approach. Therapies she can offer include Acupuncture, Facial Acupuncture, Herbal prescriptions, Diet recommendations, Supplement regimes, Fire cupping, Gua sha, Ear acupuncture, Tui Na (Chinese Massage), and acupressure. Through the lens of Chinese Medicine, she sees each patient as a unique individual that will experience specialized treatments tailored to their needs.
