Erin is a Registered Acupuncturist in British Columbia and a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine candidate at Tzu Chi International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine.
Proud of her Métis heritage, with Cree, French, and English roots, Erin’s connection to holistic healing traditions across cultures deeply informs her approach—honouring the whole person, not just the symptoms.
Her journey into healing began during her young son’s battle with leukemia, where she pursued her strong passion for natural medicine through Traditional Chinese medicine, while also completing her Master’s in Reiki, to support him and her family through treatment. Following a relapse, her older son’s life-saving bone marrow donation became a defining moment—further reinforcing her commitment to natural, integrative approaches to healing.
Erin’s understanding of health extends far beyond clinical training. Having witnessed her father’s struggle with diabetes and stroke recovery growing up, her mother’s experience with cancer and emotional hardship, and her husband’s journey through heart valve replacement and recovery, she brings a rare depth of compassion and perspective to her care. She understands that pain and illness affect not just the individual, but the entire family—and she treats every patient with that level of awareness.
Clinically, Erin focuses on pain management, sports injuries, internal medicine, and neurological conditions, helping patients recover from issues such as muscle and joint injuries, post-stroke symptoms, nerve-related dysfunction, and chronic pain patterns that have not responded to other treatments. She also works to identify and treat underlying internal imbalances that may be contributing to pain—addressing root causes rather than only symptoms.
Her approach combines advanced Yamamoto Scalp Acupuncture (YNSA) with traditional acupuncture and a fascia-based treatment model, allowing for a comprehensive approach to both neurological function and musculoskeletal recovery. By addressing the nervous system, internal organ function, circulation, and structural balance, treatments are designed to reduce pain, restore movement, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
Erin is deeply dedicated to helping people who are in pain—especially those who feel they have run out of options. Having witnessed the impact of long-term suffering in her own family, she is committed to providing care that is both compassionate and results-driven, with a strong focus on helping patients regain function, independence, and a quality of life that they deserve.
In addition to treating active conditions, Erin is passionate about preventative medicine, working with patients to maintain balance, strengthen resilience, and prevent future illness or injury before it develops.
Her work is rooted in the belief that the body has an incredible capacity to heal when properly supported, and she is passionate about guiding her patients toward lasting recovery, resilience, and well-being.

Facial rejuvenation acupuncture is a natural, non-surgical treatment designed to support healthy aging by improving circulation, stimulating collagen production, and enhancing the skin’s overall tone and texture. Many people seek facial acupuncture to help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity, decrease puffiness, and promote a brighter, more radiant complexion. In addition to cosmetic benefits, the treatment can help relieve facial tension, support lymphatic drainage, and encourage a sense of relaxation and well-being. While some clients notice a healthy glow after their first session, a series of 6-8 treatments is typically recommended to achieve more noticeable and lasting results, followed by periodic maintenance sessions to help sustain the benefits.
