Sami Reid Cooney brings over a decade of experience as an international medicine woman to her role as a Registered Acupuncturist within the CTCMA. She holds a 5 year dual diploma in Acupuncture & Phytotherapy from Pacific Rim College and her ventures have taken her across the globe, from offering services for refugees in Berlin with Acupuncturists Without Borders to providing private practice and hospital care in Zanzibar's Mnazi Mmoja hospital. In the Czech Republic, she shared her expertise through lectures on Chinese medicine and Five Element Theory at The Municipal Library of Prague along with maintaining a complex patient roster. In addition to her extensive acupuncture training, Sami Reid is a 200-hour certified yoga teacher, acquired in Lake Atitlan, Guatemala. It was there she began participating in a 9 year mentorship in Cacao Ceremony facilitation and has furthermore received a combined 350 hours of Thai Massage training through Lotus Palm in Montreal and Dr. Baan in Pai, Thailand. Her focus on somatic and emotional release is complemented by trauma-informed integrated practices aimed at activating the vagus nerve and inducing parasympathetic responses. Her own complex health journey has fueled her passion for concussion care and reproductive health, particularly in conditions like endometriosis, PCOS, and fertility issues. She also provides support for neurodivergent individuals and those struggling with PTSD. Prior to practice she spent the better part of 7 years teaching scuba diving across the world, and utilizes breathwork to help her patients dive deeper into their "acunaps". Her eclectic background converges to create a safe space for physical and emotional liberation, utilizing methodologies that address both corporeal tension and foster mind-body integration. At the core of her practice, Sami Reid believes that our bodies tell a story, and she is here not only to listen but also to facilitate an integrated harmony between the mental, emotional, and physical body of her patients. Her approach emphasizes personalized care and empowerment, guiding individuals on their unique paths to wellness and resilience. Sami Reid's exploration and deep immersion of various medicines has taken her on journeys spanning from Iceland to Australia and back, instilling in her a deep respect for cultural integration. It is with profound reverence that she now practices on the traditional territory of the W̱SÁNEĆ and Lekwungen peoples in Sidney, British Columbia.
Acupuncture facials are a natural, non-invasive treatment designed to promote youthful, glowing skin by stimulating collagen production and improving circulation. During your session, Krista uses fine, sterile needles inserted into specific points on the face and body to enhance blood flow and support the skin’s natural healing process. This helps reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles, and puffiness while boosting skin tone and elasticity. In addition to the acupuncture, Krista incorporates gua sha and facial massage techniques. Gua Sha, a traditional healing tool, is used to gently scrape the skin, promoting lymphatic drainage, reducing puffiness, and increasing circulation to the face. The facial massage further enhances relaxation and supports muscle tone, leaving the skin looking smoother and more radiant.
