Jessica Van Alten, R.Ac - Registered Acupuncturist

Greetings Courtenay and Comox Valley! Thank you for the warm welcome from your beautiful town. I am My approach to treatment is focused and gentle.

Here's a bit about me...

I realized a strong desire to study the human mind and body early in life, and earned credentials as a Social Service Worker, Holistic Nutritionist and Shiatsu/Tuina Practitioner. This Education and experience inspired interest and learning in treating complicated health conditions. I made the big decision for a move to Victoria, BC to study and intern at the intensive 4-

5-year TCM program and am so grateful for that choice. I currently am in good standing with The CTCMA as a Registered Acupuncturist. I believe in considering the uniqueness of each individual and helping clients feel empowered toward a healthy and balanced life. My passion and respect for Acupuncture traditions continues to grow as I evolve in my practice focusing on Japanese style Acupuncture (Kiiko Matsumoto Style). This style uses shallow insertions and specific palpation areas to gain instant feedback from clients to help diagnose and treat a large array of health issues. Currently, my treatment style blends many of the techniques studied under the Traditional Chinese Medicine Umbrella. A typical session with me may include a combination of Palpation and Shallow Needle Insertion, Auricular (Ear) Acupuncture, Okyu Moxa, Cupping (I do love cupping!), Gua sha, Tuina + Shiatsu Acupressure and/or TCM nutrition.

Need a warm up? 🥣
I love to sip on bone broth to keep the winter chills away. It’s amazing how nourishing and delicious something so simple can be. I like adding some butter from grass fed cows and a squeeze of lemon 🍋 to zest my palate.
How do you create the perfect broth?

My Story

Greetings! I am enthusiastic to be moving my practice to Geometry Integrated Health in downtown Victoria. Here's a little about myself and my practice of acupuncture. Over the past 10 years while living here in Victoria, I have been studying and practicing Traditional Chinese Medicine. I completed my diploma of Acupuncture at Pacific Rim College, and became a Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac) in 2015. During my studies, I observed, learned and put to practise many of the Traditional Chinese Medicine modalities while working with expert Doctors, Teachers and TCM Professionals. My passion and respect for Chinese Medicine continues to grow. I am pleased to offer Acupuncture, Cupping, Tuina and TCM nutrition, with a special focus in treatment for stress and pain reduction, mental and emotional imbalances, digestive disorders, and endocrine (hormonal) health – including pre and post natal care.As an Acupuncturist my intent is to consider the uniqueness of each individual and help clients feel empowered toward a healthy and balanced life. My approach to treatment is focused and gentle.
