Acupuncture in Vancouver
Integrating eastern therapies and western technologies to promote healing and vitality.

What is Acupuncture?
Acupuncture sends information into your body through specific points that prompt your cells to regain balance and homeostasis to restore health and well-being.
Traditional acupuncture is a technique that places extremely fine needles into your skin at strategic spots on your body. Laser acupuncture is a non-invasive, pain-free, light-based therapy that uses red and infrared light to target acupuncture points as a traditional needle would. It also has the benefit of stimulating ATP (cellular energy) production, thereby accelerating the healing process on a cellular level.
We offer both traditional (needle) acupuncture and laser acupuncture (LLLT). If you have a fear of needles please let us know and we can focus on laser acupuncture in your sessions. Additionally, acupuncture can include or be replaced by methods like cupping, gua sha, and tui na (Chinese medical massage) which are all highly effective, non-invasive techniques.

Was a Skeptic of Alternative Medicine, Now a True Believer
I have seen Lorne Brown and his team for various treatments, on and off, for over 15 years. When I first went for treatment, I was a total skeptic of “alternative” therapies. However, Lorne’s treatments completely cured me from chronic ailments, and I’ve been a believer ever since. I would 100% recommend Lorne, Kali, and everyone else at the Acubalance Wellness Centre!
