Amanda Barone is a Registered Acupuncturist with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner’s and Acupuncturists of Ontario (CTCMPAO).

It was here that she learned the intricate relationship between a person’s physical, emotional and spiritual health and the impact this has on one’s overall health and wellness.
