Hi I'm Daina Tuchscherer
—acupuncturist, nature lover, former pro athlete, and the soul behind Sea & Sage Wellness. Working out of Hair and Holistics!
​
My journey started on the world stage as a professional BMX racer—competing for Canada at the Pan American Games, the Olympic Test Event in Tokyo, and across the globe. I later coached both nationally and provincially, but it was acupuncture that truly stole my heart.
​
I fell in love with its natural, whole-body approach—gentle yet powerful, rooted in ancient wisdom, and capable of healing where Western medicine sometimes falls short. For those seeking a more intuitive, holistic path—or simply looking for a natural option they can trust—this medicine speaks volumes.
​
Now based in Morinville, Alberta, I live a full, vibrant life with my beautiful blended family, two sweet cats, and a love for travel, swimming, mountain biking, and the great outdoors.
​
At Sea & Sage, I’m here to help you feel deeply aligned, naturally radiant, and fully supported—body, mind, and soul.

Nada Protocol
For Mental Health
The Nada Protocol is a gentle form of ear acupuncture where up to five sterile needles are placed in specific points on the outer ear. No Electrical stimulation is used.
​
How it Works:
The outer ear acts like a switchboard, sending signals to the brain that release endorphins, reduce stress, and bring the body into a relaxed state. Clients often feel calm, mediative, or even drift into sleep
​
What its Used for:
Developed in the 1970's to support addiction recovery, NADA is now widely used to help with trauma, anxiety, depression, irritability, cravings and PTSD. Its often offered in group settings and works best as part of a complete healing program with counseling, education and community support.
