Jessie Wasylik is returning to Kinect Physiotherapy and Wellness, this time as a Registered Acupuncturist. Growing up in town and staying very active meant she had her fair share of injuries, which sparked her interest in helping others recover and feel their best. While completing her program at MacEwan University, Jessie discovered just how many benefits acupuncture can offer.

She believes the body is pretty smart, it just occasionally needs a gentle nudge. Jessie uses acupuncture for pain relief, injury recovery and prevention, routine maintenance for both internal and external concerns, or simply a well-timed pick-me-up. If you're not sure whether acupuncture can help, Jessie is always happy to chat and see if it's the right fit. The goal is simple: help your body do what it already knows how to do, just a little better.
