Tessa Neilson is a Registered Acupuncturist and Registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner providing patient-centred care within a modern clinical framework. Her treatments are designed to be clear, comfortable, and results-oriented while still addressing the root patterns contributing to symptoms.
She commonly works with pain conditions, stress-related disorders, headaches and migraines, jaw tension, digestive concerns, sleep disturbances, menstrual irregularities, and nervous system dysregulation. Treatment plans are individualized and evolve as your body responds.
Appointments are calm and unhurried. Needling is gentle and adapted to your sensitivity level, and many patients are surprised by how relaxing treatment feels. Education is always included so you understand what is happening in your body and why specific points are chosen.
Her approach integrates classical TCM medicine diagnostics with current understanding of the nervous system and recovery physiology. The goal is not only symptom relief, but improved resilience — helping the body regulate more efficiently between treatments.
Tessa particularly enjoys working with people who have tried many things without clear answers, as well as those new to acupuncture who want a grounded, professional introduction to the medicine.
