About Alexander Litvinoff
Registered TCM Practitioner. Acupuncturist. Tai Chi teacher.
One person, one lineage, two ways of working with the body — in the treatment room and in the park.
The short version
Trained in Buenos Aires, practicing in Vancouver.
I learned the internal arts and Chinese medicine directly from Master Liu Ming as a young man, and have taught these arts since 2011. Since 2022 I've practiced acupuncture as a Registered TCM Practitioner here in Vancouver.
The training
I was born and raised in Buenos Aires. As a young man I met Master Liu Ming, and under him I learned Tui Na — Chinese acupressure massage — and trained in the internal martial arts: Chen-style Taijiquan, Sun-style Baguazhang, and Yiquan.
That apprenticeship shaped everything I do. It taught me that the body learns through patience, and that real skill is quiet. There were no shortcuts offered and none taken.
The clinic
I went on to complete my formal education as a Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner and Registered Acupuncturist, and have practiced acupuncture since 2022. In the treatment room I combine acupuncture, Tui Na, cupping, electro-acupuncture, and Gua Sha — chosen after a proper assessment, never applied as a routine.
The conditions I treat most, and enjoy treating most: sports injuries, musculoskeletal pain, chronic and acute pain, insomnia, digestive issues, and emotional imbalances.
The practice
I've taught the internal arts since 2011, the way they were taught to me — slowly, precisely, and with respect for the tradition. Classes run year-round, outdoors, in downtown Vancouver and at Kits Beach. Some students come for health, some for depth, some for the martial art. All are welcome.
The clinic and the practice aren't two separate things to me. The same understanding of the body that guides a needle guides a movement. That's the whole idea behind Natural Harmony.
