chronic pain

Poke Acupuncture was founded by Ryan Samuels and Lani Stokes, a dedicated husband-and-wife team with a passion for holistic healing. With their extensive training and vast experience, both Ryan and Lani are accredited practitioners, bringing over 10 years of expertise to their practice.

Lani Stokes has honed her skills in the field of pregnancy and fertility acupuncture, making her a specialist in this area. On the other hand, Ryan Samuels focuses his practice on chronic pain relief, neurological conditions, and menopause. With a compassionate approach, Ryan is dedicated to helping individuals alleviate their chronic pain and manage conditions related to the nervous system.

Providing professional and compassionate care to patients since 1997.

I am a registered doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (Dr. TCM) and a registered clinical counsellor (R.C.C.) practicing in Vancouver, B.C.

I am passionate about helping people to improve their health through a body and mind integral approach. Perhaps, like many of my patients, you have a chronic physical condition that is compounded by fear, worry, or stress. Or perhaps, like many others, you experience depression, anxiety, or mood swings, which are impacting your entire life — your housework, your work, or your family life. For more than a decade, I have been helping people like you to get on a path of physical and emotional well-being.

Tongbu Wellness Center® was born through my own healing journey, that required synchronicity between several healing modalities.vMy studies in Tianjin and Beijing, China, enhanced my knowledge and enriched my passion for Chinese medicine and all that it has to offer.
