Clinical Experience & Approach
With over 14 years of experience in practice, Emily Dunn, R.Ac., offers evidence-based acupuncture for pain management, sports injuries, neurological conditions, and functional health concerns. Her clinical approach integrates Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern biomedical understanding, allowing her to assess pain patterns carefully and treat them with precision.

Emily’s primary areas of focus include sciatica, low back pain, neck and shoulder pain, headaches, plantar fasciitis, tendonitis, and post-injury recovery. She is extensively trained in Dr. Tan’s Balance Method and distal acupuncture, approaches known for delivering reliable and often rapid improvements in pain and mobility.
Treatment Philosophy
“I want patients to feel progress — not eventually, but today,” says Emily.
“Acupuncture is incredibly effective when treatments are targeted and individualized.”
Beyond Pain Management
In addition to musculoskeletal care, Emily treats sleep disturbances, stress, anxiety, digestive concerns, and allergies. She has a particular interest in supporting neurological conditions such as Bell’s palsy, shingles-related nerve pain, and Parkinson’s-related symptoms.

Emily practices at Balance Healing Centre in Ottawa’s Manor Park, where she offers a calm, supportive environment focused on long-term outcomes and whole-body wellness.
