Patti-Ann Krywulak, R.Ac.
Patti-Ann is an experienced acupuncturist passionate about holistic healing. With training in Canada, China, and Nepal, she treats a wide range of conditions, specializing in musculoskeletal and emotional health. She recently moved to Fernie and enjoys yoga, skiing, and the outdoors.
Patti-Ann’s journey into acupuncture began with a personal transformation—when Chinese Medicine profoundly impacted her own life, it set her on a path that had long been a dream. She turned that passion into purpose, graduating from Grant MacEwan University in 2016.
Her training and experience are both deep and diverse. Patti-Ann interned under renowned acupuncturist Son Duong, practiced in Edmonton, and later opened her own clinic in Hinton, AB. She has since made Fernie her home, bringing her extensive knowledge and compassionate care to the local community.

Her treatments are grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine principles and tailored to support each person’s unique journey toward wellness.
