Brian Kushniruk, RAc

Brian is a Vancouver-based Registered Acupuncturist with over two decades of experience. He specializes in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), German Auricular Medicine, and Laser Acupuncture Therapy. Brian’s unique approach combines these techniques to effectively treat various issues, including chronic and acute pain, mental health concerns, addictions, and PTSD. He has an extensive background in both Western and Eastern practices, having studied and trained in Canada, the USA, and China.
Brian’s dedication to healing and his compassionate nature create a safe and personalized environment for his patients. He tailors treatments to suit individual needs, using laser therapy for those who prefer a needle-free approach. Additionally, Brian’s expertise in qigong, meditation, martial arts, and yoga allows him to guide patients in mental and physical techniques that promote ongoing well-being.
In addition to his private practice at Broadway Wellness, Brian has been working with Vancouver Coastal Health since 2002. He also extends his expertise to clients at private recovery centres, specializing in individuals with experiences of physical and emotional trauma, substance abuse challenges, and histories of suicidal behaviour. Brian’s dedication to his work reflects his unwavering commitment to providing comprehensive care for patients dealing with intricate mental health, pain, and addiction concerns.
Acupuncture, a cornerstone of TCM, involves stimulating specific points on the body’s meridians to restore balance on emotional, spiritual, and physical levels. Brian’s treatments can address a wide range of health problems, including muscle pain, migraines, depression, anxiety, and addiction issues. The German Auricular Acupuncture system he uses offers a unique diagnostic and treatment method that connects ear points to areas of the brain, allowing for precise and effective interventions.
Furthermore, Brian utilizes Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) to improve wound and soft tissue healing, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain. Laser acupuncture, a non-invasive alternative to traditional acupuncture, proves particularly beneficial for patients who are sensitive to needles or have deficiencies.
Brian’s expertise in acupuncture, laser therapy, and German Auricular Medicine, coupled with his understanding of the relationship between pain, mental health, and addictions, makes him an exceptional practitioner capable of addressing a diverse range of health concerns.
