Our Story
Reshaping What Healthcare Can Be
The Healing Forest was founded in 2020 in Brentwood NW Calgary starting from a solo treatment office. With more and more successful treatments, patients from all over Calgary and beyond have come to The Healing Forest in search of alternative solutions to their health concerns. Its rapid growth transformed a solo practice into a thriving company. Recognizing the need for a larger permanent space, Dr. Henry Lin and his business partner, Rhyalle Everhart, took on the challenge of designing and overseeing the construction of a new clinic. In March 2023, they looked into the Sage Hill NW location and personally directed the project from bare dirt to completion, bringing their vision to life. After 2 years of dedication, The Healing Forest finally opened its doors in May 2025, offering a thoughtfully designed space to better serve the community.
The Healing Forest has since expanded into a multidisciplinary wellness clinic, including doctors from the fields of naturopathic medicine, chiropractic, osteopathy, and facial rejuvenation acupuncture. Most TCM doctors at The Healing Forest have undergone classic TCM training through Dr. Henry, who has dedicated his own personal time to spreading this type of education in Calgary.
The vision of The Healing Forest is to utilize holistic treatment methods to help every patient resolve their health issues. The doctors and practitioners at The Healing Forest believe in targeting the root of health issues rather than focusing on treating symptoms, to ensure that health problems are permanently resolved. A successful treatment means that a patient will no longer rely on medicine or acupuncture in order to be healthy. The clinic differs from Western medical practices as Traditional Chinese Medicine is geared towards tailored treatment plans for individuals rather than using a “one size fits all” concept.
The clinic is known for its capability to treat a wide range of issues, ranging from common issues such as sciatica, insomnia, body pain, menopause, menstrual issues, or migraines, to more difficult cases not limited to mental health disorders, sleep apnea, autoimmune disorders, cancer recovery support, fertility issues, restoring hormone levels, and many more! At The Healing Forest, many conditions that may be deemed untreatable by Western medicine might be treatable here as seen on our Google reviews and web testimonials.
At the end of the day, The Healing Forest strives to create a legacy which honours the wholeness of a person’s health. The doctors of the clinic aspire to help more people find their path to wellness.
