Description
Kara graduated with honours with a diploma in Acupuncture from Pacific Rim College. Her primary areas are various pain conditions (including migraines and injuries), and mental health (including depression and anxiety). Kara is a life-long resident of the Langford/Colwood community. She is a proud military wife, that has been through two Naval deployments, so she understands the challenges and hardships they may bring. After suffering from migraines for years with no relief, Kara sought out acupuncture treatment. After experiencing relief, she felt as though she found her calling.
