Monica Santos LAc, LMT

After more than 20 years in the IT industry, Monica Santos, LAc, LMT, discovered a new calling in healing through the simple, powerful experience of caring for her grandmother. That moment inspired her to pursue massage therapy and, ultimately, acupuncture as a deeper way to support the body’s natural healing processes. With advanced training that includes a BHSc, MAc, facial acupuncture certification, and PMP, Monica brings a thoughtful, integrative perspective to every treatment. Her approach is gentle and personalized, combining acupuncture with her background in massage therapy and trigger point release to help patients feel more comfortable, connected, and supported in their healing journey.

Monica especially enjoys working with stress and anxiety, recognizing how deeply they can affect both body and mind. She also works with patients seeking support for headaches and migraines, digestive concerns, fertility, sports related conditions, and facial rejuvenation. Known for her warm, interactive style and sense of humor, Monica takes time to build trust and understand the whole person not just the symptoms. Her philosophy is rooted in the interconnectedness within ourselves and with one another, creating a healing experience that honors each patient’s individual needs and natural capacity for change.
