Kristy Garry is a Registered Acupuncturist and TCM Herbalist who has done extra training focusing on gentle Japanese styles of Acupuncture, now her main modality of treatment. She provides exceptional, individualized care with a focus on balancing the body.
Although she does have special interest in digestive disorders, fertility, pregnancy (being a mother of 2 herself) and general wellness, her main passion is creating and maintaining harmony in the body, no matter if there was an original ailment, or if the already healthy patient wants to be preventative.
Kristy’s many years of QiGong cultivation and study with her teacher Master ZhongXian Wu have given her additional insight into creating harmony within her own body, and those of her patients, but also with the environment around us.
