About Us

With over 16 years of education and clinical experience, Nicole Carey is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine dedicated to helping people find deep, lasting healing. Her approach is rooted in both the ancient wisdom of Eastern medicine and the practical realities of modern life.

Nicole specializes in supporting patients through all stages of life—from managing pain and stress to navigating fertility, pregnancy, postpartum care, and beyond. Her treatment style is both intuitive and highly skilled, blending traditional acupuncture with a deep understanding of how the body, mind, and spirit are interconnected.

Grounded and compassionate, Nicole creates a space where patients feel seen, heard, and supported. She believes healing is not just about fixing what hurts, but about helping people return home to themselves—stronger, calmer, and more connected.

When she’s not in the clinic, you’ll often find Nicole outdoors, recharging in nature or spending time with her family. Like the redwood tree that inspires our clinic, Nicole’s work is about cultivating resilience, balance, and a sense of belonging—for every patient who walks through the door.

Kerry is a Registered Acupuncturist and graduate of the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her practice focuses on mental health, digestive health, chronic pain, hormonal balance, and supporting patients with complex or long-standing conditions. With a trauma-informed and patient-centered approach, Kerry creates a calm, supportive space where patients feel seen and heard.

Her path to acupuncture was shaped by her own healing journey—after a decade in corporate Calgary, she turned to Traditional Chinese Medicine to navigate stress and chronic health challenges. That personal transformation fuels her passion for holistic care that meets people where they are.

Outside the clinic, you’ll find Kerry recharging in nature, weightlifting, reading, or catching live punk and metal shows.

Her treatments aim to regulate the nervous system, restore function, and support long-term healing through a full-body, lifestyle-aware approach.
