Dr. Mohamad Almaqtari is a seasoned practitioner specialising in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Prophetic Medicine, and acupuncture. With a profound passion for aiding individuals in attaining optimal health and wellness, he has devoted his career to delivering personalised and empathetic care to all his patients.
He adopts a holistic healthcare approach that encompasses all facets of a patient’s life — physical, emotional, and spiritual. He firmly believes that genuine healing arises only when underlying bodily imbalances are addressed; to this end, he collaborates closely with patients to craft personalised treatment plans that align with their individual needs and objectives.
Dr. Almaqtari’s proficiency in Hijama wet cupping is a testament to fourteen years of practice and teaching in this field. His education in Chinese medicine has further enhanced his understanding and techniques in performing Hijama Therapy — bringing classical wet-cupping into careful integration with the modern clinic.
Beyond his role as a healthcare practitioner, Dr. Almaqtari is a committed educator and mentor — passionately imparting his extensive knowledge to the next generation of healthcare providers. He currently serves as a clinic supervisor at ACATCM College, where he supervises the clinical training of students in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and as a distinguished instructor at the Alberta College of Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine.
