Abel Acupuncture Clinic

Why is there no review for this place yet? This comfortable clinic is located in Downtown Vancouver: super close to the freeway and plenty of street parking. It’s in an older, but clean and inviting building.
This is based on my first visit: the receptionist is friendly, checked me in quickly, and got all the insurance information sorted out quickly. They serve wonderful tea while you relax and wait for your appointment. I didn’t have to wait long before I was welcomed by acupuncturist Greg Cantanese. This is my first visit to this clinic but it’s not my first time to the acupuncture rodeo. Of all the acupuncturist that I’ve seen, Greg is one of the most thorough ones, explaining each step as he goes (even though I told him that it was not my first time getting acupuncture). This makes it assuring for people receiving acupuncture for the first time. His attention to detail is something I can really appreciate. With his background in massage, Greg is observant to subtleties. I was treated for my allergies, and I feel great the next day. Bonus: he gives a little quick scalp and should massage at the end. Again: something I have no experienced.
Greg has a really good aura about him, and I can see how he could make any situation comfortable, especially if you might have a fear of needles. I find acupuncture a very relaxing experience, and my overall first visit was very relaxing and productive.
