Attention any and all Naturopathic and Acupuncture students! I've decided to explore getting back into IN-PERSON Acupuncture workshops.

My demographic is most certainly Naturopathic students who are interested in improving their Acupuncture skills. However, students of other Acupuncture programs are absolutely welcome.

I am in the process of creating 3 different "levels" of Acupuncture workshops - each level is tailored to helping 1st, 2nd, and 3rd year students.

I've been teaching Acupuncture for over 15 years, have proctored thousands of exams and helped many students through the remediation process - I know what you need to be a better Acupuncture provider!

If you're interested, let me know - I'll happily provide more information and start creating a schedule for upcoming workshops.

Get ready to be a better Acupuncturist!

Acupuncture Workshops - Acupuncture Masterclass In-person Acupuncture workshops are now available with Acupuncture Masterclass. Never struggle with your Acupuncture classes again! More here

My new video on how to use a TENS unit to help with period pain. Be sure to share with those who suffer! There should be more treatment options for this issue but some self-care methods like this one can help.

Clinic space available on the Danforth! Hello all Toronto area healthcare practitioners! My massage therapist is moving on to a space closer to home so I now have some clinic space available for rent. Days that are available are Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. There are 2 rooms so bring along a colleague and enjoy the whole clinic to yourselves! Feel free to contact me at [email protected] if you would like to book a time to see the space. Thanks to all who pass this along to interested practitioners!

Super overdue for a new profile pic (about 15 years…eeep!). A big thanks to for his amazing ability to take a couple of years off this old face! Thanks a million, Kevin!

The Ford government is sneakily pushing for the de-regulation of acupuncture and TCM as a regulated healthcare profession. Whatever your thoughts are on acupuncture as a therapy, this decision could result in lower standards of practice, less safeguards for the public and less access due to no insurance coverage. If you like having access to things like acupuncture, consider visiting www.SaveAcuON.carrd.co for different ways to express your opinion. Thanks for any time you spend on this!

#saveacuON Stop the de-regulation of Acupuncture and TCM in Ontario.

Feeling very grateful and humbled with my 9th Top Choice Award for Top Acupuncturist in Toronto. A huge thank-you to all my clients who have stuck with me through the pandemic and for anyone who took the time to vote. If you’ve been a client in the past or are currently a client of mine, I honestly can’t thank you enough!

I’ve been very lucky in my clinical practice. Lucky to have the clients I have, lucky to be in such a fantastic neighbourhood and lucky to have some wonderful clinical results which I will remember for the rest of my days.

Thanks again to everyone who played a role in helping this happen. Most importantly, my wonderful parents and my amazing wife.

Ontario has allowed Acupuncturists to get back to work! I am slowly and carefully taking clients starting tomorrow (June 1st).

There are lots of changes in the clinic but I am very much looking forward to seeing my clients again.

Feel free to email me directly if you have any questions or concerns about coming in for treatment.

For more information about the changes at the clinic, visit https://drewnesbitt.ca/covid-19-update/

Hope to see you soon!

Attention Acupuncture & Naturopathic students!

The newest Acupuncture Masterclass video is in. Today's topic - Anatomical Measurements of the Lower Leg.

Video - https://youtu.be/ZnnYWpxWKms

Why did I pick this topic? I see way too many students making location mistakes in this area of the body. If you can't find SP6 correctly, you've got some problems!

Check the video out and never make location errors in this area again.

Send in any video requests - please like and share to get this info out there. Thanks in advance!

Hope everyone is doing okay.

Hello CCNM students! I trust you're all doing okay during this unfortunate break from your studies.

Some of you may be familiar with my Top 40 Acupuncture Points workshop and many have expressed interest in the next date. However, it looks like we will have to wait until all this blows over.

In lieu of the live workshops, I am considering doing webinars - likely in 4 separate webinars which would cover all the material from the Top 40 Points workshop.

Before I do this, I need to know if people would be interested! There would be a small cost (half the price of the live workshops) and it would likely be through Zoom. Let me know if this interests you and please like this message so it gets around to anyone who might want to take advantage of this offer.

Stay safe everyone! Hope to hear from people soon.
Drew

Are your treatments being delayed? This is more than stressful...please take advantage of (check this on instagram) - a zoom meeting at 11am today! Discover important coping strategies from a professional during this unprecedented time.

COVID-19 Update - Just so everyone knows, I am still seeing clients at my clinic. All measures to ensure a safe and clean environment are being used. However, if you are experiencing a cough, difficulty breathing and/or fever, please cancel your appointment with me and get in touch with your family doctor. No late cancellation fees will be applied.

If you have any questions, please email me and I will do my best to get back to you as soon as I can.

Avoid large crowds, wash your hands often and be safe! ❤️

I've been trying to get someone to go into labour for the last week and I have one more chance to make it happen - hoping that things move soon!

Here is a recent study on acupressure during labour - done on my favourite point. Results continue to show benefits so I will continue to teach clients how to do this on themselves. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31613424
