Rheanna Robertson (B.Sc.Psych, Dr.Ac.)
Registered Acupuncturist
Rheanna has always been fascinated by the human body, especially the brain and psyche. She graduated from the University of Alberta with a B.Sc. Specialization in Psychology and interned as a psychometrist and research assistant. This experience motivated Rheanna to pursue further education in order to treat the mind and body from a more wholistic, energetic approach. Traditional Chinese Medicine and Acupuncture was the perfect fit, and Rheanna is now a graduate of the Grant MacEwan Acupuncture program.
Rheanna’s goal for every treatment is to nurture an open and honest relationship, meet you where you are at, set realistic health goals, and provide motivation, guidance, and education for you to find balance in your body and mind.

Registered Acupuncturist
NAET Practitioner
The completion of her BSc in Kinesiology sparked Tammie’s interest in the notion that one's physical health is significantly influenced by one's emotional and psychological well-being. She was drawn to Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine as a complementary and powerfully effective counterpart to Kinesiology in a physiological recovery and healing plan.
Tammie is a graduate of MacEwan University’s Acupuncture program. She completed a one month internship in a Traditional Chinese Medicine hospital in Beijing, China where she gained a greater understanding and knowledge of the power of traditional Chinese modalities in combination with western treatments in optimizing patient healing.
