ABOUT IKORO ACUPUNCTURE CLINIC

Ikoro Acupuncture Clinic is a home-based alternative health care clinic in Lowertown, Ottawa, founded by practitioner Sonoko Shinoda, R.Ac.

In the dialect of Kyusyu, the southern island of Japan where Sonoko’s family has its origins, Ikoro means the equivalent of ‘Qi’ in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). Qi, being a vital substance along with Blood and Body Fluids, can be translated into English as ‘vital force’ or ‘life force’. According to TCM, the imbalance between Yin and Yang as well as the imbalance of the three vital substances eventually leads the body to a diseased state. The goal of Sonoko’s practice is to bring your Qi/'Ikoro' to its ideal states.

ABOUT THE PRACTITIONER

Sonoko Shinoda, a registered acupuncturist in Ontario (R.Ac.) completed the Acupuncture Practitioner Diploma Program at the International Academy of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Ottawa, Ontario in 2020. A special interest in women’s health and well-being prompted her to continue to supplement her education through taking extra classes, apprenticeships and practicing Qigong and Taichi.


She is fuelled by her passion for offering her patients new insights into their health, helping them to discover and appreciate their unique qualities yet uphold their own values through introducing them TCM.


Interested in everyone, Sonoko treats both men and women. Being a woman herself, she has a particular interest in catering to women who have hormone-related ailments. As well, she enjoys facial rejuvenation acupuncture which helps women feel satisfied with their own bodies.
