ANGELA GALATIERRA-GANDING
Angela Galatierra-Ganding, is a Licensed Acupuncturist who was born and raised in Winnipeg, MB, Canada. After obtaining her Bachelor of Science in Chemistry at the University of Winnipeg, a personal experience with acupuncture led her on the journey to fulfill her passion in working in the healthcare field. To follow this dream, she decided to move to California to pursue graduate studies in Traditional Chinese Medicine and obtained her Master’s of Science in Oriental Medicine at the Acupuncture and Integrative Medicine College in Berkeley.

She has worked at the University of California Berkeley Sports Center, where she cared for student athletes who had sports related injuries. Angela also spent her time working with patients at the Homeless Prenatal Clinic in San Francisco, handling a variety of women’s health issues and pregnancy related issues as well. In private practice, she has treated a variety of cases including pain management, smoking cessation, immune system disorders, gastrointestinal disorders, high blood pressure, fatigue, and insomnia, to name a few.

Angela believes that all of these experiences have led her to the practitioner she is today. She is an advocate of integrative medicine and believes that combining chiropractics, massage, acupuncture and herbal medicine as well as western medicine, is key to a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Through this approach, she is committed to providing her patients with the highest quality of care. She is excited to join the Oakbay Chiropractic Team, continuing to share this fascinating medicine with her future patients!
