Acupuncture

Traditional Chinese Medicine acupuncture focused on stress regulation, pain relief, and supporting the body’s recovery process.

Treatment may incorporate fire cupping, Tuina, Gua Sha, and red light therapy when clinically appropriate.

Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy is a non-invasive treatment that supports cellular repair, reduces inflammation, and enhances the body’s recovery process.

It can be used for chronic pain, muscle tension, injury recovery, and stress-related overload. By supporting circulation and cellular function, it helps the body move out of prolonged stress mode and into a more restorative state.

Raindrop Therapy

Raindrop Therapy is a unique massage combining aromatherapy, reflexology, and Swedish massage with nine specific essential oils dropped from a height onto the spine to promote deep relaxation, alignment, and immune support by stimulating the nervous system and detoxifying the body

Myofunctional Therapy

Myofunctional therapy aims to retrain the muscles and obtain an optimal tongue, lips, and jaw resting posture. The therapy involves a series of exercises that promote healthy optimal breathing, correct swallowing patterns, proper tone and functioning of the face and mouth muscles, and a correct resting posture for the lips and tongue.

Paul Schofield R.Ac.

After choosing to change career paths in search of more meaningful work, Paul pursued training in Traditional Chinese Medicine with the goal of helping people who feel stuck in stress mode find steadiness again.

He graduated with Honors from Georgian College’s three-year Advanced Diploma Acupuncture program in 2018 and practices Traditional Chinese Medicine with a modern, grounded approach.

Paul’s clinical focus is helping adults experiencing chronic stress, anxiety, sleep disruption, and nervous system overload. Personal experience navigating PTSD, stress, and anxiety has shaped a practical and patient-centered style of care — one that prioritizes safety, steady progress, and lasting change.

Patients often describe leaving sessions feeling calmer, more settled, and more like themselves.
