JO will be pausing her hours at H&H starting February 6th, so she will be MIA on her weekly Monday, Tuesday and Thursday hours. She has encountered some scheduling conflicts, but also really needing to take some downtime to tend to her body and spirit. It will be TBD if and when she will rejoin Jade…
When learning how to comprehend the basic principles of Chinese medicine, students are taught that all of the philosophical ideas that underpin the ideas of yīn and yáng, and the ways they are interrelated, can be mapped on to the tàijí – or what in the west we might hear people casually refer to as the ‘yin-yang…
After weeks of delays from our landlord’s building insurance, new glass is up and Chris and Stu of Dobell Sign Co. have been back to repaint our signage. It finally feels like our space is complete and we can start getting back to work AND our clients won’t be as confused about where they are…
One of the key systems of how we operate our Community Acupuncture practice is the all important Invisible Receptionist (IR). AND we hope you enjoy our revamped IR 2.0 at our new Quadra Village home!

Here are the father and son contractor duo behind the INCREDIBLE transformation of this once 2200 sq ft vacant dusty shell. After Christina noticed the For Lease sign and she went running across Quadra St to press her face up against the glass back in March…she scribbled a rough floor plan on the piece of…
One of the highlights of our renovations has been the privilege of having bespoke signage done by the last remaining hand painted sign-writers in Lekwungen Territories and we couldn’t be more ecstatic about the results!!!! Despite the stress and chaos that is an inherent part of renos, finally having the signage up in our windows…
Another reno sneak peek… Christina with the guidance of the talented @noahweaves have created something pretty special for the future Community Acupuncture room at 2612 Quadra St. Using chicken wire, 100% wool roving from Alberta sheep and skillful, dextrous hands the two of them created dreamy, fluffy clouds. They will be used to conceal some of…
