Discover the Healing Benefits of Acupuncture

Acupuncture is a 3000 year old practice in Traditional Chinese Medicine that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body. It is based on the flow of “Qi” (most often translated as the body’s vital energy) through pathways in the body called meridians, or channels. The balance and flow of Qi is essential for maintaining health and homeostasis. Acupuncture aims to restore this balance.

By stimulating specific points on these channels, acupuncture can impact biochemical and physiological changes in the body. Sensory receptors signal the brain to release endorphins (your body’s natural painkillers) and neurotransmitters, which can help to alleviate pain, promote healing, regulate mood, and improve immune function. It also triggers the body’s natural healing responses, promoting the release of hormones and other chemicals to reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and promote physical and mental well-being.

Testimonials

  • As a person who has suffered from insomnia and general sleep conditions for years, I found Jill's gentle, holistic approach to be a key component of my recovery. Her approach is intuitive, empathetic and thorough, and I began seeing real results within days of treatment. I recommend her practice to anyone, regardless of ailment, and I am a perfect example of her quality expertise.

  • I have been a regular patient of Jill Truscott’s for over six years now and could not be happier! Jill is not only an amazing acupuncturist whose treatments have relieved my chronic pain, but she is also a truly kind person who cares about her patients and really takes the time to listen and understand their health concerns and treatment needs. I have mild needle phobia which Jill is so great with, and I always feel very safe and comfortable in her care. Aside from effective relief from chronic pain, Jill’s treatments have had such a positive impact on my wellbeing in general, and I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Her keen attention to detail and her commitment to providing the best possible results for her clients shines through at each visit. Her balanced approach to treatment always gives me the boost needed emotionally and physically. I receive care from Jill on a regular basis and I refer patients to her practice with great confidence. Whether you reside in East Vancouver or not, the trip to her space on Commercial Drive is well worth it. Thanks for taking such good care of the community Jill!
