Valentina Romanov, born and raised in Russia, was originally exposed to alternative medicine through her grandmother and mother who practiced chiropractic, massage, and herbal therapies. After moving to Canada, she spent her teen and young adult years involved in sports, where her passion for health and wellbeing became more evident. She completed a personal fitness trainer diploma, which was a field that she stayed in for over 10 years. During this time, she met an acupuncturist who helped her resolve her own health issues, and open her eyes to the beautiful world of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This experience brought on a desire to expand her knowledge, and she enrolled at the Tzu Chi International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, where she completed both the Acupuncturist and Herbalist programs. Valentina uses an empathetic and caring approach where she utilizes acupuncture, cupping, tuina, gua sha, moxibustion, as well as food and herbal therapy as a part of her well rounded practice. Conditions she treats include but are not limited to acute and chronic musculoskeletal, neurological, gastro-intestinal, mental-emotional, gynecological, and respiratory issues.
