He then moved to Sherbrooke, where he practiced for 5 years, before coming to Montreal in 2011. He now practices in Brossard at Aurora Chinese Medicine.


Stéphane is devoted to providing the best possible care to his clients and he constantly seeks to improve and expand his knowledge. The focus of his practice on the treatment of musculoskeletal problems, sports injuries and optimization of athletic performance. He completed a mentorship program with Whitfield Reaves, a leading figure in the field of sports acupuncture, and he regularly travels to China, where he undergoes a rigorous apprenticeship in Chinese hospitals.
