Alyson Engelsjord – RAc

Whether you’re seeking relief from pain, stress reduction, or simply a renewed sense of balance, I’m here to support you on your wellness journey through the art of Acupuncture.

Born and raised in Kelowna, BC. My journey into the field of Acupuncture all began when I started working as a receptionist at Active Living in 2019. At the time I was attending Okanagan College in the Business Administration program. Working at the front desk, I saw firsthand the positive impact all our amazing practitioners had on their patients’ lives. This, along with my own curiosity about Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine is what initially inspired me to pursue Acupuncture as my own career.

After completing my Business Diploma in 2020, I enrolled into the Acupuncture program at Pacific Rim College in Victoria, BC. I graduated from Pacific Rim College with honors in 2023 and have been registered with the CTCMA – BC’s regulatory body for acupuncture—since 2024. Now, back in my hometown of Kelowna, I am very excited to contribute to the health and vitality of my community.

My training encompasses both Traditional and MSK (musculoskeletal) Acupuncture techniques plus adjunctive therapies such as cupping and gua sha, allowing me to address a wide range of health concerns. I strive to deliver holistic and individualized care that aligns with your unique needs and goals.

Acupuncture operates on the principle of stimulating specific points along meridian pathways to optimize the flow of Qi (aka circulation/ blood flow and the electric signals from the nervous system) in the body. This not only addresses MSK discomfort but also can have positive effects on digestion, endocrine function, sleep, and emotional equilibrium, fostering a holistic approach to wellness.

I look forward to partnering with you on your health and wellness journey.
