This Week's Presenter Is...


Shannon Larson
Shannon Larson Acupuncture


Although trained to work with a wide variety of conditions, Registered Acupuncturist Shannon Larson specializes in women's health, with a focus on fertility and pregnancy. Pregnancy and labour often bring numerous aches, pains and discomforts that can be addressed by acupuncture, a treatment known to deliver safe, natural relief.

Speaking of "delivery", Shannon, who is also a doula, delivered a great presentation despite having been up all night helping bring a new life into the world. (Mom and baby are both doing just fine!) Shannon gave us a comprehensive overview of the conditions acupuncture can treat, including chronic or acute pain, stress, sports injuries and insomnia. She also taught us about Meridian Channels, a concept central to Chinese medicine and acupuncture. Meridians are channels along which the energy (Qi) of the psychophysical system is considered to flow. During acupuncture treatments, fine needles are inserted into specific areas of the body in order to restore the flow of Qi, and thereby bring the body's natural rhythym back into balance.

Shannon practices Mondays and Thursdays at:

Turning Point Acupuncture
#203 - 1037 West Broadway, Vancouver
On Tuesdays and Fridays:

Alchemy and Elixir Health Group
#320 - 1026 Davie Street, Vancouver

Contact Shannon today to find out how acupuncture can bring you relief from pain, discomfort or stress. Restore balance to your life.
