We are excited to announce that Zachary Olesinski, our Japanese Acupuncturist, is back from his journey in Japan, bringing back new skills to better help you! You can now BOOK him in starting November 20th 2023 at our Harbord location.

Zach grew up with an interest in health and wellness through his own health experiences. Zach earned his Diploma of Acupuncture from the Institute of Traditional Medicine in Toronto, covering over 2000 hours of acupuncture, eastern medicine, and biomedical science. Zach is registered with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists of Ontario (CTCMPAO).

His long-term goal is to bridge the gap between Western medicine and Eastern medicine.He continued his studies and trained under renowned Acupuncturists: Mitsunori Seino, Takamasa Tsurusaki, and one of Japan’s top manual therapists Takayuki Tsuchikawa. His passion for healthcare never stops, as he travels to Japan each year to learn and practice new methods to provide the best treatments for his patients.

In Japanese acupuncture and moxibustion, "hara" or abdominal diagnosis takes precedence when evaluating the state of the patient's condition.

An image of the function of the internal organs can be reflected in the abdomen. The information obtained from this analysis is of direct clinical relevance, as it is used for determining treatment points.

The purpose of abdominal diagnosis is not only the identification of physiological imbalances but also observing the changes during and after the treatment.
