James Hagen R.Ac
James graduated from Laurentian University with an Honors Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry in 2014. However, a personal experience with chronic knee and back pain introduced him to acupuncture—a transformative encounter that changed his life. With just a few skillfully placed needles, his pain was alleviated, sparking a deep fascination with this ancient practice.
Motivated by a desire to help others find relief, James shifted his focus to a career in acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. Passionate about holistic healing, he is dedicated to researching and exploring innovative techniques to provide effective, personalized care and enhance patient outcomes.
Today, James is proud to serve at Access Acupuncture, where he combines his scientific background with the enduring wisdom of Chinese medicine to support patients on their healing journeys.
