When thousands of years of ancient medicine meets a modern wellness setting — you get Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) at NEXT Clinic.
Acupuncture and TCM focus on restoring the body’s natural balance and energy flow (called Qi) through the use of fine needles, herbal medicine, cupping, Gua Sha, and dietary guidance. It’s a holistic approach to healing that supports everything from chronic pain and hormone imbalance to fertility and digestion.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is acupuncture painful?
Not at all. The needles are incredibly fine — most patients feel a light pinch or nothing at all, followed by deep relaxation.
Q: How many sessions do I need?
That depends on your goals. Acute issues may resolve quickly; chronic or complex conditions often benefit from a series of treatments. Fallon will guide you.
Q: Is it safe?
Yes. Acupuncture is safe when performed by a licensed TCM practitioner. Fallon follows strict hygiene and safety protocols, including single-use sterile needles.
Q: Is this covered by insurance?
Yes, most extended health plans in BC cover acupuncture. We’ll provide a receipt for reimbursement, and we’re working to add Fallon to our direct billing programs.
