Healing Roots Acupuncture

They look intense… I know 🤍

But acupuncture needles are hair-thin — nothing like the ones used for injections.

Most people feel a tiny tap, maybe warmth, heaviness, or a soft wave spreading through the area. That’s Qi arriving at the point.

When Qi is guided to where it’s been stuck, depleted, or disconnected… the body remembers how to heal.

And more often than not?
You end up deeply relaxed — sometimes fully asleep.
Most leave their treatment floating. ✨

Not scary.
Not painful.
Just your nervous system exhaling.

Hi 🤍

I’m Jess, an acupuncturist who believes healing starts at the root.

I approach every treatment grounded and intentional, creating a space of warmth where you feel nourished and empowered every step of the way.

Acupuncture is more than “woo-woo.” It’s a time-tested medicine, grounded in centuries of practice and supported by modern research. It bridges mind, body and spirit while addressing the physical systems driving your symptoms.

I’m especially passionate about women’s health and hormonal balance, with a special focus on fertility — I wrote my thesis on it in school. Supporting women through these seasons of life is work I hold with deep care.

Outside the clinic, you’ll find me adventuring with my dog Tarot, with family, reading on my Kindle, or experimenting with a new sourdough recipe.

You can find me at The Loft in Taber.

Your health matters — and I’m here to help you get where you want to be. 🤍

In Chinese Medicine, everything comes back to the Five Elements —
Wood. Fire. Earth. Metal. Water.

They’re not just theory.
They’re living patterns moving inside you. 🌀

🪾Wood governs the smooth flow of Qi — when it’s stuck, you feel stress, tension, PMS, headaches, irritability.

🔥 Fire houses the Heart and your Shen — your Spirit. When it’s balanced, you feel calm, connected, lit from within. When it’s not, sleep and emotions feel unsettled.

🌎Earth is your center — digestion, nourishment, feeling grounded in your body.

🌬️ Metal supports breath, immunity, and your ability to let go.

💧 Water stores your deepest reserves — hormones, fertility, and the vitality that carries you through seasons of life.

When these elements are in harmony, you feel steady. Clear. Regulated.
When one falls out of balance, the body whispers — and eventually speaks louder.

This is why acupuncture doesn’t just treat symptoms.
We listen for patterns.
We restore balance beneath the surface.

Because your health isn’t separate systems.
It’s a conversation.

And when that conversation flows…
you feel like yourself again.

✨ If your body has been whispering (or shouting), this is your sign to listen.

HAPPY LUNAR NEW YEAR 🧧❤️🤍

In Chinese Medicine, the Horse carries Fire — and Fire governs the Heart.

The Heart houses the Shen — your Spirit.
When the Shen is anchored, you feel calm yet vibrant.

The Horse year brings momentum, visibility, passion — and intensity.
Without support, that Fire can rise too quickly and scatter the Shen.

The Horse brings movement.
The medicine is rhythm.

Rest well.
Move your body.
Protect your joy.

Support your Heart so your Spirit can shine — without burning out. ❤️

✨ Lunar New Year is the perfect time to reset.
Book your treatment and start the year grounded, clear, and aligned.

I’m Dr. Jess, a Registered Acupuncturist, and I offer calm, personalized treatments designed to keep you feeling your best.

Goji berries (gou qi zi) are cherished as a tonic herb that nourishes, restores, and replenishes.

They’re sweet in flavor and neutral in nature, meaning they can be used year-round, though they’re especially beneficial in colder seasons when the body craves warmth and nourishment.

Goji berries are known to:

Nourish Liver + Kidney Yin: supporting hormonal balance, fertility, and long-term vitality.

Enrich the Blood: helping with dizziness, dry eyes, or pale complexion.

Support vision: in TCM, the Liver “opens into the eyes,” and goji berries are said to brighten and strengthen eyesight.

Boost Qi + Jing (essence): improving energy, stamina, and overall resilience.

You’ll often find them in herbal teas, soups, or congee. Not just for their sweetness, but for their deep restorative qualities.

Figs can do many things, especially in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Eating figs helps ground you, and restore your energy.

It also supports healthy digestion, nourish yin, and help the body clear internal heat.

Your body deserves to rest too.

Tension, fatigue, headaches... they’re all signs that your system’s been running on empty for too long.

Acupuncture helps restore flow, reduce stress hormones, and bring balance back where it belongs.

You don’t have to live in “survival mode” anymore, your body’s ready to sit back and relax. 💆‍♀️

Because when you slow down, REAL healing begins. ✨

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, hibiscus is valued for its cooling and cleansing nature.

It helps the body clear excess heat, soothe the liver, and regulate qi: making it especially helpful when you’re feeling bloated, irritable, or overheated.

Often enjoyed as a tea, it gently supports digestion, fluid balance, and menstrual comfort — restoring a sense of calm from the inside out.
