Education and Background: Lina completed her Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology from McGill University in 2015, and from there went on to explore holistic healing and ancient wisdoms during a period of worldy travels. During this time, she studied at the renowned Sivananda Ashram and completed her 300 hour Yoga Teacher Training.

Her passion for yoga, movement, and spirituality prompted her to deepen her knowledge by studying at Pacific Rim College in Victoria. There, she completed her Diploma of Acupuncture in 2022 and became a Registered Acupuncturist with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners and Acupuncturists in 2023.

Lina’s formal training in Cosmetic Acupuncture and Myofascial Release provides options for patients wanting to explore both aesthetic and functional concerns. Furthermore, she has experience in treating many conditions, ranging from emotional dysregulation, acute and chronic injuries, to sleep and digestive concerns. Additionally, she employs Cupping, Gua Sha, Tui Na Massage, and Diet Therapy to tailor treatments to meet your unique needs.

Lina believes that the body speaks magnitudes, telling a story of your physical and emotional well-being. Her mission is to help you tune in to yourself and guide you to respond to your body’s needs. She approaches healing from the inside out, and believes in the intricate connection between body and mind.

To Lina, Acupuncture is a profound method for introducing space and softness into your being when everything else feels like “too much”. When you give yourself the opportunity to pause and breathe, you uncover your inner strength.
