About Us

Who We Are

Acutoronto’s  team of Registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists have over 20 years of experience working with pregnancy, labour and postpartum related concerns.

The practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is the assessment of body system disorders through TCM techniques and treatment therapies to promote, maintain or restore health. After a TCM diagnosis is completed, a variety of TCM modalities may assist in promoting health and wellness. Recommended treatment options and responses will vary from person to person. We do our very best to empower, educate and support each of our patients by providing an individualized holistic approach to their care.
