Robin’s practice is focused on client-centred care, listening to the patient’s concerns, and listening to the body - diagnosing using a combination of pulse taking, looking at the tongue coat, and palpation (touch) to see where the body is out of harmony. She is fascinated by the intelligence of our bodies and is always seeking the root concern of what is manifesting in symptoms and pain.
Robin has a gentle but effective approach and has been studying Kiiko Matsumoto style Japanese acupuncture and integrating the theories and techniques of Traditional Chinese Medicine into this style. Each person is unique and comes in with their own health (and life) history. Each treatment given resembles the individualities of each person. The patient gets to experience in real-time pressure pain disappearing or fading within minutes of needle insertion. This gives immediate feedback to both the patient and the practitioner. The treatment is also fluid and dynamic – as things shift and change, the treatment changes. Robin continues to check for positive changes as when they occur, it allows the treatment to move forward. Changing needle placement as needed or adding gentle moxibustion (mugwort herb) warming.
Robin completed the three-year acupuncture program with honours. She also has studied a variety of other courses in university including a few semesters of kinesiology, and elective courses in mental health nursing, and human resources. Robin has completed continuing education in Kiiko Style acupuncture (KMS), obstetrical acupuncture, and pelvic floor dysfunction and pain. She is also a member of the OBAA (the Obstetrical Acupuncture Association. The association is dedicated to promoting the highest level of safety and knowledge in the field, along with reproductive justice and equity for all.). She is passionate about treating menstrual symptoms, pain, mental and emotional health, post-operative recovery as well as pregnancy and postpartum.
Robin also enjoys guiding clients with accessible lifestyle and food therapy advice, as well as other tools for support physically and emotionally between sessions.
