Bamboo 72

Bamboo 72 Acupuncture + TCM is the Upper Ottawa Valley's first Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) clinic, providing residents of the Ottawa Valley and beyond with traditional healing and preventative medicine. Since our founding in 2009, we have been deeply committed to cultivating health within our community through the ancient healing practices of TCM. Our name, Bamboo 72, comes from the plant that most strongly symbolizes the strength and resiliency of the human body.

At Bamboo 72 Acupuncture + TCM, we are proud to offer a wide range of TCM services, including acupuncture, herbal medicine, cupping, and dietary therapy. Our treatments are designed to balance the mind, body, and spirit, and to restore vital energy (qi) to the body while relaxing the mind and calming the spirit. We believe in treating the root of health concerns to nurture the body's overall health and balance.

Our clinic has recently joined Deep River Family Chiropractic in downtown Deep River, forming a holistic healthcare center that offers chiropractic, massage therapy, and TCM under one roof. We have fostered strong bonds with other referring practitioners in the valley, as our mindset of total mind and body wellness aligns with the needs and desires of many people.

Our Services

At Bamboo 72 Acupuncture + TCM, we offer a variety of TCM services designed to balance the mind, body, and spirit and restore vital energy to the body. Our services include:

• Acupuncture: a form of treatment that involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of qi and promote healing.
• Herbal Medicine: the use of plant-based remedies to treat a wide range of health concerns.
• Cupping: a form of therapy that involves suctioning cups to the skin to stimulate the flow of blood and qi.
• Dietary Therapy: the use of food as medicine to promote health and prevent disease.

Our treatments are tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual client. We take the time to listen to your body's messages and prescribe a path to health that will restore energy and balance to your body.

Facial Rejuvenation Treatments

In addition to our traditional TCM services, we are pleased to offer facial rejuvenation treatments. These treatments can help women enjoy a healthy glow by bringing circulation to the skin and promoting collagen renewal. They work towards tightening and relaxing facial muscles where needed, focusing on areas of the face as well as acupuncture points on the body. Like all TCM treatments, facial rejuvenation is geared towards harmonizing the body from the inside out. To treat the face, one must also treat the body, and this systemic treatment will benefit overall health. Since your skin is a reflection of your overall health, when you are healthy on the inside it can't help but reflect on the outside.
