Welcome to John’s Acupuncture Clinic!
Owned and operated by John Blazevic, John’s Acupuncture Clinic provides classical acupuncture and moxibustion services in the Main Street area of Vancouver, BC.
Making his name part of the clinic name reflects John’s personal commitment to his patients and his craft. He believes fully in appropriate, individual treatment based on the theories of classical Chinese medicine. This means strengthening the individual and improving their circulation of energy and blood. This can only be done with appropriate treatment, meaning individuals who are very tired, cold, or weak should be given gentle and warming treatment. On the other hand, individuals who have a lot of energy and heat require a stronger stimulation to remove any blockages.
By giving the appropriate treatment, the individual who has an illness will become healthier. As a result of becoming healthier and stronger, the person recovers. John specializes in treating the individual — this is traditional medicine.
John uses acupuncture (Chinese, Japanese, Korean needles), moxibustion (burning of the herb mugwort directly on the skin), anma massage (massage based on the energy pathways of the body) and stone therapy (the ancestor of acupuncture) as treatment modalities. Although in the West, moxibustion is relatively unknown compared to acupuncture. However, classically and clinically, the two are used together.
Acupuncture is pleasant and painless when done by a skilled practitioner.
