About

A Holistic Healing Professional

Taissa (Tai) Kira, M.Ac., L.Ac., Dipl.Ac.

Licensed Acupuncturist

Founder of Zen Place Wellness, LLC.

​

The mission at Zen Place Wellness is to provide patients with an integrated and holistic approach to healing.

Rather than just trying to fix problems, the goal is to enrich patients’ lives

by teaching them how to gently shift behavior and habits to help unlock their healing potential.

Tai considers each patient's unique story and symptoms in order to find the root cause of the issues

and designs a series of treatments that will encourage the body to heal itself.

The hope is to fill the gap in the world of modern medicine practice that incorporates whole food nutrition, lifestyle, bodywork and psycho-emotional balance to better regulate our bodies innate healing abilities.

​

Previously, Tai was co-owner of the very successful practice, Healing Place Acupuncture, 

with Megan Conover before each moved on to different paths in acupuncture and holistic healing. 

​

Tai's treatments focus on pain relief, stress release, fertility, digestive and psycho-somatic disorders plus nutrition and weight management. Her success stems from the combination of therapies acquired over 20 years of experience in competitive sports, massage, myofascial release, Reiki, acupuncture, iridology, Esogetic Colorpuncture and Asian medicine. 

​​

Tai lived and worked in Canada, Hong Kong and Singapore for over 14 years and

experienced the power of Asian medicine integrated with Western. 

​

She was an internationally certified massage therapist (ITEC, BABTEC) and myofascial release practitioner while living in Asia, before attending the Won Institute of Graduate Studies and graduated Valedictorian of the acupuncture program.
