Thank you very much. By far the best acupuncturist I have ever visited. You exactly know what to do and I felt truly that you wanted to heal me (and you did). your passion and knowledge is outstanding. Thank you extremely much :)
Sarah's expertise with Chinese herbs is incredibly supportive. I have received care from numerous TCM practitioners and Sarah is one of the best!
I have never tried acupuncture but after trying to get my elbow and shoulder pain free by two different physio s my friend Sarah offered to treat me. I couldn’t believe the difference after just one treatment. Thank you so much for your amazing work you do! I’ll be coming back lots!

I found Sarah to be open minded and non-judgemental, able to weave ancient practices for whole body health with my own efforts to help my condition improve. Sarah used precise combinations of Chinese herbs and acupuncture to treat my intense shoulder pain, its root cause and my general health. At each appointment she altered my herbal mixture depending on my feedback and what she noted in the pulses at my wrists. She carefully tailored my acupuncture treatments according to how comfortably I could position my shoulder that day. I felt better with each treatment. After my fifth and final appointment I felt like dancing all the way down Ellis St. Thank you Sarah! Less
I have my life back! It was stolen 2 years ago by chronic unexplained rectal pain that has stumped 10 doctors. I have tried an array of medication which only reduced my pain by 10-20 percent.

I have my life back! It was stolen 2 years ago by chronic unexplained rectal pain that has stumped 10 doctors. I have tried an array of medication which only reduced my pain by 10-20 percent. I refused to give up and was tired of pills that didn’t work. A friend suggested I try acupuncture and I felt there was nothing left to lose. I met Sarah, who was kind and understanding. She seemed to instinctively know exactly what I needed and got to work. The acupuncture was relatively painless and I was given some herbs to take home. I wasn’t a fan of the taste but could care less if it took away my pain. After my first session, I knew I only had a few days till my worst pain day. I’ve always called it “my day of hell” where my pain is 9/10 and feels like I’m 6cm dilated giving birth to my son. I braced for the day and put on my brave face. The shocking surprise was my pain was greatly reduced by 70%! I could function at work and at home! This was manageable. I feel there is hope now and I’m finally on a journey of healing. I can be a nurse, mom and wife without the dread of pain and unpredictably of pain. Less
Sarah is incredible. Very professional, friendly and most of all KNOWLEDGEABLE! Every treatment I get I feel better and better. She always knows which direction to take to upgrade my health. She is also highly education on traditional Chinese medicine and provides me with different herb blends for what my body is needing. Thank you Sarah!
I had major neck surgery 3 years ago leaving me with neck stiffness and neck muscle fatigue. I tried physiotherapy, message therapy, IMS therapy and shock wave therapy without relief. I had my first treatment of acupuncture by Sarah 2 weeks ago and it is the best my neck as felt in 3 years. The mobility go my neck has improved as well as the reduction in neck fatigue. I highly recommend Sarah.

Sarah’s treatments are amazing! Within the first weeks of treatment I’ve already experienced great relief from my pelvic pain and female health issues, which have been an issue for me for over 7 years. I am currently getting weekly acupuncture treatments and have been using Chinese herbal medicine daily, this combination has really helped me. I used to have to rely on OTC pain relievers, but my intake of those have been significantly reduced as my symptoms are becoming less frequent and less intense over time. The acupuncture is a very relaxing and calming experience, Sarah takes her time and makes sure that you’re comfortable. I am very grateful for Sarah’s services, and I’d highly recommend booking an appointment with her if you are having any health issues. Less
I went to so many different practitioners until I found Sarah. Her knowledge in herbs is amazing and within one session I had a huge reduction in symptoms. It was very hard during my pregnancy to 1. Trust a practitioner and 2. Feel better after a treatment. I wish she’d teach a course!
Sarah is absolutely amazing. I came into the clinic with rather severe and chronic lower back/hip pain. She was the first practitioner that provided a longer term treatment plan. I go to her for treatment, not relaxation acupuncture and she is very up to the task. I continue to go to her as it has kept my pain to a minimum by going for maintenance appointments. Can't recommend her enough!

After still suffering with the pain of whiplash from a car accident I decided to take the step of trying acupuncture with Sarah. I was in intense pain in my neck down into my back with limited turning mobility. I felt instant and progressive relief after that first session and a renewed hope to heal. Weekly sessions of acupuncture and cupping have brought amazing and increased relief each time. The addition of injections will promote more of the healing. I truly see and feel I’m at the end of the painful struggle to heal and not be held back from living fully these past few months. Sarah can see and feel the source of the trauma. Her compassion for your circumstance and explanations of treatments put you at ease. She continually checks that you are ok with the process and guides you with more advice. Less

Sarah is fantastic. I had been having a hard time with seasonal allergies. Sarah combined acupuncture and herbs and was very successful providing me relief. Sarah is very knowledgeable and experienced. Her cupping massages are awesome also.
I had massive low back pain due to a injured and hypertonic QL muscle. Sarah did trigger point injections and after a few minutes, the muscles relaxed and the pain subsided. Sarah is very knowledgeable and has education and training to back it.
I decided to see Sarah because of a painful deep ganglion cyst in my wrist. A day after our session I could see a noticeable difference in the size, and the pain was quite a bit less than prior to our appointment. I would definitely recommend Sarah if you're looking for a friendly and experienced practitioner.
Sarah is incredibly knowledgeable and skilled. She helped me overcome chronic neck and jaw pain! I would 100% recommended her
Sarah knows her stuff. She’s friendly and kind and always takes the time to answer my questions. The combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine has really helped me. I highly recommend visiting her.
Dr. Sarah has studied both Traditional and Classical Chinese Medicine and delivers her wealth of knowledge with empathy and compassion. Sarah offers herbal therapy as well making for very well rounded healing. I’ve benefitted from Dr.Sarah’s care since 2017 for overall well being to motor vehicle accidents and everything in between and highly recommend her offerings and services.
Sarah is absolutely amazing. She is thorough, attentive, knowledgeable and really makes you feel at ease during treatments. She is a gift to acupuncture. I highly recommend her!
Sarah is extremely knowledgeable and compassionate. I felt a noticeable improvement after my first treatment. Sarah does an excellent job of calming the nerves of new clients that may be anxious about Acupuncture. I highly recommend Sarah for those looking for help with Acupuncture.

I have had chronic pain on the left side of my neck and shoulder for the past 2 years. I have tried various treatments to relieve the pain and even had a work place accommodation completed on my desk but nothing seemed to help long-term. Since I have been seeing Sarah for treatments for the last 3 months, I am finally feeling relief. Sarah can tell exactly where the issue is and focuses on that specific area. I am thrilled that I can finally see long-term results and feel normal again. Sarah is a professional and is very passionate about what she does which is evident in the treatments she provides. Less
Highly recommend. Sarah is warm, knowledgeable and clearly dedicated to her craft!
I first met Sarah after struggling with chronic pain for more than a decade, starting in my 20's. I had tried everything under the sun and was desperate for relief from the daily debilitation headaches and body pain. I couldn't even remember what life was like before the pain and was at the end of my rope. I have been seeing Sarah for 16 months now and the change is remarkable. I have my life... More

Very knowlegable and calming!! Highly recommend 😊
My time with Sarah is very calm and relaxing. She is so gentle with her treatments. The cupping and acupuncture treatments have been so effective at treating long term lingering injuries. I would definitely recommend multiple trips to see Sarah!!!
Sarah is so amazing! She was friendly and made me feel comfortable, was a good listener and ultimately helped me with my pain. I loved the professional but homey feel of the clinic and their dog Hank was a total bonus on the heart feels. Sarah was so knowledgeable, was invested in my concerns and overall trustworthy. I felt reassured and would totally go back to see her In the future.
I highly recommend Sarah. She is very knowledgeable, kind and caring, not to mention always willing to share her knowledge.
After three MVAs and a severe Concussion to boot, this has been by far some of the most effective treatment I have received [alongside massage and chiro] and I have tried a lot! Highly recommend

I recommend Kelowna Accupunctre to anyone who has tight muscles, joint pain, mobility issues, troubles sleeping, stress, anxiety, depression and injuries. I can say this because Sarah has treated me for all of the above over the last 7 years and I felt an improvement after every treatment I have received, wich is why I continue to receive them. I have had lower back pain, pinched nerves, torn shoulder muscles, separated knee and much more, accupunctre as dramatically improved these conditions after several treatments. I have taken herbal teas that Sarah has put together for me that have helped improve my sleeping patterns, focus and stress level. I always feel rejuvenated and energized after a treatment and highly recommend her as a practitioner of Chinese medicine. Less
I met Sarah when she worked at OHP!! she is amazing and knows what's she's doing.
I have been going to Sarah for over 1.5 years. She is extremely knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. For years, I looked for solutions to help with my hormones. I never found anything that worked until I started acupuncture. Like many others, I did not realize the benefits of acupuncture on hormones, stress and anxiety!! Thank you Sarah for being so helpful!
Sarah is very knowledgeable and personable. She is attuned to how her client is feeling and is excellent at making you feel comfortable. She is invested in figuring out the best way to help you. I would recommend her services to anyone.

Sarah is very knowledgeable in Chinese Medicine. I am seeing her for two different health concerns and I am already seeing a difference, I always look forward to my acupuncture. She always seems calm when I see her for treatment and it makes for a very relaxing treatment session. I have already recommended her to family and friends.

This is my second year of treatments...... so helpful and does relieve so many ailments ...great staff also... thank you all... next appointment in Feb.
Sarah is a knowledgable and compassionate practitioner. With a combination of acupuncture and herbal medicine, she helped take away all the discomfort when I put out my back. Highly recommended!
I was very impressed with my treatment outcome. I went see Sarah with two different health concerns that I was experiencing. Since starting both acupuncture and Chinese herbal treatments, both concerns have been completely resolved. Thank you Sarah Jenkins.
Sarah is the best! Her knowledge is priceless and has served me well through the years
I have seen Sarah Jenkins over the years for treatments and always had a really great experience. She makes it a very relaxing experience and is very educated on Chinese medicine. I would definitely recommend her to others.

I see Sarah Jenkins for acupuncture, and she is great! Very knowledgable and helpful! Thank you Sarah.
I've seen many GP's and naturalpaths over the years to try and sort out my hormonal issues but nothing seemed to work. I am so thankful I found Sarah Jenkins as she has been the only one who has been able to help me. She has improved my health and has made such a positive impact on my life.
I was suffering from nerve and ligament damage in my shoulder (which then caused Frozen Shoulder). After 6 months, I just couldn't get rid of the piercing nerve pain shooting down my arm every few seconds. It was gone after 3 treatments with Sarah and I was able start recovering. I'm happy to say that after 8 more months, I have 95% recovery and will achieve the rest soon.

I'm honestly blown away by the effectiveness of the treatment that I received. I had fallen off my down hill mountain bike and torn my rotator cuff and acromioclavicular ligament. The damage was not so severe that I required surgery but it had significantly reduced my range of motion and was extremely painful. So much so that it was effecting my sleep and quality of life. I tried months of physiotherapy and massage but was only getting worse. I decided to give Sarah a try, she treated my shoulder with acupuncture and trigger point injection therapy. The effects to my surprise were immediate. With each treatment I recovered range of motion and had a notable reduction of pain. After a total of 8 treatments I had recovered my full range of motion and was almost 100% pain free. The best part is that my results have been permanent so no need for ongoing treatment. I have and continue to recommend Sarah to all my friends and family she definitely changed my life for the better! Less
