About Dr. Amsu El
I’m Dr. Amsu El. I help people feel better in their bodies, think more clearly, and make changes that last.
My approach is simple and rigorous. I listen deeply, find the real pattern, and act with precision. I build plans case by case using electrical acupuncture, non-invasive bio-electrical therapy, breathwork, herbs, and practical lifestyle design. No templates. Your care is designed for you.

I was shaped by family, community, and wise Jegna's who insisted on integrity and results. Losing my sister young showed me what happens when care chases symptoms instead of terrain. In my clinic we intervene early, before a molehill becomes a mountain, and we pair nature with science so progress is real and measurable.

Sometimes the right move is acupuncture or targeted electrical work. Sometimes it is sunlight, grounding, traget journaling, or speaking the truth your body has been holding. Each tool has a time. The person determines the method.

I am here to reflect who you are, lighten the load you are carrying, and help you align with your internal compass, the most reliable healer you have. If that resonates, we can work.

Enjoy Healing, again!

We offer a combination of wholistic healing techniques that restore health naturally.

Natural healthcare is essential if you wish to live a longer, higher quality of life. We are all living longer. And, I believe most people would prefer to live their entire life in good health. That's why I offer natural methods, such as acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicines, lifestyle and nutrition counseling, and meditation and relaxation resources, to heal and maintain health.

I am a CA state licensed and nationally certified acupuncturist specializing in women’s health care, with an emphasis on fertility enhancement and pregnancy care. I graduated from the Santa Barbara College of Oriental Medicine where I also served on the faculty. I enjoy helping my clients experience greater health and balance through gentle acupuncture, lifestyle and nutritional counseling, and Chinese herbal medicine. I use sterile, disposable needles and herbs that have been tested for pesticides, heavy metals and pharmaceuticals.

Though my emphasis is in reproductive health, I also enjoy working with men and women on all areas of health such as musculoskeletal pain, gastrointestinal issues and emotional wellness.

My journey as a Chinese Medicine Practitioner started in 1994 when I met a monk in Taiwan who taught me about meditation, cleansing, food healing, calligraphy and Chinese health practices. For 10 years, I travelled around the world studying natural healing and classical Asian martial arts from various masters, healers and schools.

I graduated from the Academy of Classical Oriental Sciences in British Columbia with a degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine, modelled after the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine curriculum.

I’ve been in clinic practice for over 10 years in the Ottawa-Gatineau area. I am a Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac) with the College of Traditional Chinese Medical Practitioners and Acupuncturists in Ontario under the following number: 2807. I currently see patients at The Village Clinic in Westboro.

I teach weekly Qigong and Chen Style Tai Chi classes at Aylmer Qigong and Tai Chi and I hold regular at workshops, lectures, webinars and events on health and well-being.

I also lecture and write on child developmental psychology and behaviour using traditional Chinese medicine. I am the author of the book Democratic Parenting and the creator of The ADHD Transformation Program.

I have advanced training in Acupuncture, Chinese Herbal Therapy, Dietary Recommendations, Qigong/Tai Chi, and Traditional Chinese Medical Psychology.

Fully Licenced Acupuncturist based in Snaith near Goole and Selby.

Maybe you want to cut back on tablets or avoid lengthy medications. Try a therapy that has very little side effects or want help with other side effects?
There are many reasons why people choose acupuncture but the main reason is that acupuncture can treat the body as a whole. By this we mean that not only can acupuncture treat the main complaint but you will find that other problem ailments will start to diminish as the treatment progresses. In Chinese medicine we believe in treating the root of a disease as well its presenting symptoms.
