Achieve Optimal Health with Acupuncture in Vancouver

About Kiran Schaffer – Acupuncturist in Vancouver | Holistic Healing & Wellness

Hi, I’m Kiran, a Registered Acupuncturist based in Vancouver, where I’ve called Mount Pleasant home for over 20 years. Born and raised in a small town in Northern BC to Indian parents, my journey into holistic health was shaped by personal experiences. Watching my mom face chronic illness and cancer opened my eyes to alternative healing approaches, and my own struggles with anxiety led me to acupuncture. The clarity and focus I gained after just a few treatments inspired me to pursue a career in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)


In my Acupuncture practice in Vancouver BC, I offer compassionate, patient-focused care tailored to each individual. I specialize in calming the nervous system, improving blood and Qi flow, and promoting sustainable self-care to help you feel your best—mind, body, and soul.


Outside of work, I enjoy biking, tennis, pickleball, dance classes, and spending time by the water. I’m always up for trying new restaurants—especially Asian cuisine—and love unwinding with a good book or TV show.


I look forward to helping you cultivate health, balance, and renewed vitality in your life.
