Sarah Tobin R.Ac

I am pleased to offer direct billing for most major extended health insurance providers!

Please note that ICBC direct billing is currently in progress. At this time, I am not enrolled as an ICBC, WCB, or MSP provider, and cannot bill these insurers directly. Patients using ICBC, WCB, or MSP are required to pay in full and submit receipts for reimbursement.

Sarah is a registered acupuncturist graduating from Pacific Rim College on Vancouver Island. Originally from Newfoundland, she has called the West Coast home for the past decade, she was drawn here by her sense of adventure and the desire to explore new possibilities. Her introduction to acupuncture began in her teens while recovering from a back injury during Canada Games training - this experience sparked her curiosity about Eastern medicine and philosophies. Years of travelling gave her appreciation for holistic healthcare and broadened her approach to supporting people.

In her clinical practice, Sarah offers trauma-informed care with a focus on pain management, emotional wellbeing, pre and post natal care, and gynaecological support. Alongside acupuncture, she integrates Tui Na (Chinese massage), cupping therapy, acupressure, and moxibustion. She also provides needle-free appointments as an option for people who prefer a supportive treatment without the use of needles. Her treatments are gentle, intentional, and tailored to support individuals on their journey.

Outside the clinic, Sarah is a creative being. She’s also an avid surfer, snowboarder, and outdoor enthusiast - most often found by the ocean, up in the mountains, or wandering through the forest. Nature is her greatest inspiration and teacher, shaping the way she moves through the world.

She invites you to come as you are, share your story, and ease your body and mind with an exhale.
