About
Hello! I’m Paul Gaucher, a Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner and acupuncturist with 17 years of experience. I earned my diploma in the Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine program, graduating in 2006 after completing a rigorous 5-year full-time program that covered acupuncture, herbalism, diet, nutrition, and emotional health.
My family and I have been proud to call Creston home since moving here from Nelson in 2016, and I’m honored to be part of the vibrant Creston community through my work at Vitality Acupuncture.
​
In addition to my practice at Vitality Acupuncture in Creston, I serve as the program manager of the Chinese Medicine program at Kootenay Columbia College in Nelson, B.C., where I also teach acupuncture techniques and supervise clinical training.
From a young age, my deep connection with nature and love for exploring the outdoors sparked my curiosity about life, eventually leading me to study and practice alternative medicine. My approach to Creston acupuncture is rooted in a profound respect for the healing power of nature and a commitment to guiding my patients toward their highest potential for health. I see each patient as a unique individual, and it’s my privilege to be a supportive companion on their wellness journey. My vision is to bridge ancient healing techniques with modern health challenges, offering Creston the best in acupuncture care.
My Services
Traditional Acupuncture
Experience the transformative benefits of holistic healing with our acupuncture services. Through the ancient art of acupuncture, we delicately stimulate the body's energy pathways, promoting balance and vitality. Acupuncture is a therapeutic practice with roots in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that has been utilized for thousands of years. It involves inserting ultra-thin needles into specific points on the body, known as acupoints, to balance the flow of Qi (pronounced "chee"), the vital energy that circulates through the body.
No Needle Therapy
If you're new to acupuncture and want a milder treatment to rebalance your system, Paul can utilize other therapeutic options that can put you at ease such as: Herbal medicine, cupping therapy, gua sha, tuning forks, and advice on a healthy lifestyle. No-needle acupuncture offers a non-invasive alternative with notable health benefits. It can help reduce pain, alleviate stress, and improve circulation without the use of traditional needles. These therapies promote relaxation, balance energy flow, and support overall well-being, and are powerful alternatives to acupuncture.
Life Coaching
Paul offers Life coaching and counselling to provide personalized support and guidance to individuals navigating life's challenges. Life coaching focuses on goal-setting, personal development, and achievement, helping clients unlock their potential and overcome obstacles. Counseling offers a therapeutic space to explore emotions, manage stress, and address mental health concerns. Both services empower clients to gain clarity, build resilience, and cultivate positive change, fostering a path toward improved well-being and a more fulfilling life.
