Nayul Kim
Registered Acupuncturist
I am all about bringing the ancient wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine to the modern world. As a Registered acupuncturist, I've got loads of experience and know-how under my belt. My journey started at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine. During my time there, I got to train at some top-notch hospitals like Dongzhimen Hospital (东直门医院) and Xiyuan Hospital(西苑医院), diving deep into the art and science of acupuncture. I specialized in not only general acupuncture practice but also tackling women's health issues head-on.
After graduation, I jumped right into the world of acupuncture. Found my groove here in Canada. Since then, I've been all about giving personalized acupuncture treatments. I draw on my solid understanding of traditional Chinese medicine principles and my extensive clinical training to provide top-notch care tailored to each person I treat. Whether it's easing muscle or joint pain without the ouch or tackling various women's health concerns, I'm here to help folks feel their best.
