The Chinese medicine practitioners and acupuncturists at Toronto Total Wellness Centre have decades of experience treating many diverse illnesses and disorders. From sports injuries and pain to complex immunological disorders, our practitioners have successfully addressed their patients’ many concerns.

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can successfully and effectively treat a vast array of disorders, sometimes after only a few treatment sessions. In 2003, the World Health Organization published a report and analysis of controlled clinical acupuncture trials. Since that time, the body of research and knowledge has grown. We now recognize a list of disorders for which there is objective evidence about acupuncture treatment efficacy.
