Aysha Nuttall

Aysha began her acupuncture journey when her own health was threatened. On the recommendation of her yoga instructor she made her first visit to a DTCM. After 3 months of acupuncture treatments, herbs and a wealth of new found knowledge her life was changed. She no longer needed her medication and was in control of her health. Within months she changed her life’s path and began her schooling as a Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine.

She began her studies at the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine in Calgary where she received her Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Interest in sports medicine motivated her to attend the Southwest Acupuncture College in Boulder, Colorado where she was trained in Acupuncture Sports medicine. She is also an Acupuncture Detox specialist using the NADA protocol to treat addictions and PTSD.

Aysha worked at Southcentre Health and Wellness, a large multidisciplinary clinic in Calgary, for 3 years. She worked at Alberta’s only in-tox center for a year treating people in recovery. She was also an instructor at the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine for a brief period before her life went in a new direction and brought her to Comox.

Aysha moved with her family to the Comox Valley in 2014 to slow down and spend more time with her kids. She thoroughly enjoyed the amazing community that has welcomed her in and dove right into the west coast lifestyle. After 2 wonderful years of getting to know the Valley she decided to start her own business. That's when Inner Strength Acupuncture and Health was born.

When she’s not working you'll likely catch her at the hockey rink.

Aysha is a confident therapist with many years of experience working with all types of injuries and illnesses. Her main focus is anxiety and stress reduction along with PTSD and addictions. She also has a special interest in influencing athletic performance and pro-active injury prevention. Aysha will work with precision to create balance in all her patients.
