Acupuncture
Lacy Brandt
Lacy has been a Registered Acupuncturist since April, 2019. She studied at Pacific Rim College here in Victoria, BC. Prior to that she was living in Alberta working as a Physical Therapy Assistant in Acute Care Hospitals and finishing a Bachelor's Degree in Community Rehabilitation and Disability Studies at U of C. Her own battles with stress and health issues, specifically Crohn's Disease led her to discovering the benefits of Acupuncture. She was so fascinated with how it helped her that she made a career out of it.
Her approach to health is a blend of Traditional Chinese Medicine education along with her experience in the Western Medical world. She loves helping people with acupuncture because she can focus on the systemic patterns that present imbalances as well as focus on specific pains and symptoms. She has a special interest in pain, autoimmunity, mental health, digestive and hormonal disorders as well as traumatic injuries. When she's not working you can find her cuddling her dog or playing in the great outdoors.
