​​Katrine B. Hegillman Dr. TCM, IFMCP
​Katrine B. Hegillman has dedicated her life to the study and practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine and integrative healing arts. She graduated from the International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine (ICTCM) in Vancouver, Canada, and completed her clinical practicum at the Anhui Hospital of Acupuncture in Hefei, China. She began her professional practice in 1999 in Vancouver, BC. Between 2005 and 2012, Katrine pursued advanced training in Japanese-style acupuncture with Ikeda Masakazu Sensei and Kiiko Matsumoto Sensei in North America and Europe. This refined and highly diagnostic approach has since become a central focus of her clinical work. In 2017, she expanded her integrative approach through training with the Institute of Functional Medicine, becoming an IFM Certified Practitioner in 2023. Her clinical philosophy is rooted in the core principle of Chinese medicine: rather than treating disease alone, the goal is to support and strengthen the body’s natural ability to heal. Her treatments integrate acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition, and movement therapy, and are guided by detailed pulse and abdominal diagnosis. By bridging East Asian medical wisdom with contemporary clinical insights, Katrine offers individualized, hands-on treatments designed to restore balance and support long-term health.
