Maki started off her practice as a shiatsu practitioner when she first moved to Vancouver back in 2000. She learned her techniques from her home country, Japan. Coming to Vancouver, she realized that there weren’t a lot of forms of alternative therapy being offered at the time. She continued to work on her own for almost a decade until she decided to pursue the world of energy medicine.

Through her readings, she recognized that her strength was in the form of reiki and psychic healing. She found herself continuously helping her patients with deep rooting conditions that they may not have known – recognizing healing in conditions such as severe clinical depression, physical conditions such as bone breaks, skin burns, and ligamentous/muscular tears. She has had a tremendous effect within the community, slowly offering workshops to help us find the healing power within ourselves. She plans on pursuing her healing education in areas such as psychic surgery, increasing the strength in her own healing and meditation.

In her spare time, you can find her on the soccer field or softball diamonds playing hard and having a great time amongst her friends. She has a strong connection with the spiritual world and finds herself in nature or continuing her own practices with other like-minded practitioners. Also, finds she is a total animal lover! You will always see her around all the puppies.

Iris’s background is the bachelor’s degree from China Pharmaceutical University. She has been fascinated by the Art of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) since her childhood. She had seen how acupuncture relieved her mom’s pain of shingles, and how acupuncture treated conditions without touching the surface of the condition with ease and comfort. She decided to turn to this field of TCM and completed the Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner Program (including Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine) in three years. During her internship in school and her current practice, she saw and experienced many significant progresses in the treatment and prevention of a wide range of common/chronic diseases with Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal medicine. Moreover Iris is an avid practitioner of Yoga for over 15 years, and she believes that, for some people who are suffering from body pain/soreness or unbalanced body structure, choosing the right yoga poses as a daily exercise could benefit her practice as an acupuncturist. She also loves meditation, taiji and qi-gong. This type of energy work can be combined with Acupuncture to heal one’s energy from the heart since in theory of TCM, the core reason of disease comes from the heart. Outside of her practice, Iris likes to communicate with others and is a good team worker, she had been a Richmond School district translator during 2015-2017 and right now, she is a member of We Dance Association of Canada.

In 2008, my path towards massage therapy began when I encountered a skilled practitioner who helped me recover from multiple soccer injuries. I was captivated by the effectiveness of his techniques and began to pursue an apprenticeship under his guidance. Over the years, I honed my skills and applied them to my own treatments. Eventually, I enrolled in the Registered Massage Therapy program at VCMT and graduated in 2022, eager to help others on their journey towards healing.

My experience has allowed me to create my own unique style of massage therapy using different myofascial, deep tissue and stretching techniques. This approach allows me to provide clients with personalized treatments that cater to their specific need.

When I’m not working, I enjoy playing soccer, running, camping and spending time with friends and family.
