A few words from Alice...

"For as long as I can remember, I was always fascinated with nature and all its wonders, which later translated into my deep interest of natural healing. Before I received the chance and opportunity to explore this passion, I studied at a university in Wroclaw (Poland) where I received my Master’s degree in Engineering.

When I later moved to Ottawa with my family, although I had the choice of continuing a career with my engineering degree, I instead decided to dedicate my time to learning more about the world of natural healing as Canada opened new opportunities to follow my true passion.

I took various courses in the field of natural healing beginning with courses from the Wild Rose College of Natural Healing in Calgary, Alberta. I was soon led to the discovery of Traditional Chinese Medicine which further roused my interest and led me to study at the Ottawa School of TCM and Acupuncture and later from the International Academy of Natural Health Sciences in Ottawa. This was followed by my studies at the Academy of Classical Oriental Sciences (ACOS) in British Columbia, one of the most prestigious schools in Chinese Medicine in North America.

Relocating from Ottawa away from my family in order to study at ACOS was a challenging commitment to say the least, but a rewarding one. My time spent at the Academy took much hard work and dedication, but graduating from this program has allowed me to fully live out my passion and do what I have always been meant to do: to help others realize the remarkable healing potential of traditional Chinese medicine in place of mainstream pharmaceutical drugs or invasive medical procedures."
