Sumi Kang

Sumi is a Registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner (R.TCM.P), registered in good standing with the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioners of British Columbia (CTCMA). She studied her Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine at Pacific Rim College located on the unceded Coast Salish Territory of the Lekwungen (Songhees) and WSANEC nations on Vancouver Island in beautiful Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. After spending over 700 hours of clinical training, she was able to apply her studies in acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition and biomedicine into a number of patients coming to see her with various ailments. Sumi's acupuncture and Chinese herb medicine training centered on Traditional Chinese Medicine and Korean style acupuncture. She believes in the evident connection between harmonious mind and body. This is why Sumi's practice mainly focuses on mental-emotional well-being and internal medicine, including the treatment of digestive disorders, gynaecological issues, stress-related conditions, fatigue, pain and the maintenance of good health. She also found her great interest in natural beauty and graceful ageing. So she combines this ancient modality (along with gua sha, tui na and facial cupping) with the traditional Chinese medicine systems in her facial acupuncture treatment. Outside of her practice, she is pursuing her in-depth knowledge and experience in Doctors of Chinese Medicine.
