Lacy Brandt
Registered Acupuncturist
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.

Angela Inglis
Registered Acupuncturist & RMT
For more than 20 years, I’ve been helping people live more fulfilling and meaningful lives. I’m a Registered Acupuncturist, Registered Massage Therapist, Yoga Teacher Trainer and all-around wellness enthusiast. I’m always discovering new ways to support others (and myself) in experiencing a greater sense of ease and vitality in body, mind and heart.
I use a diverse collection of techniques, including Chinese massage (Tui Na) for relaxation, cupping to support circulation and acupuncture to reestablish balance in your whole being. I often tell my clients that I really have no idea how acupuncture works - but most of the time it does! So, that’s why I practice it.
I work with all kinds of clients and have a special interest in supporting those experiencing mental and/or physical stress and fatigue, perimenopause/menopause, and those recovering from injuries or motor vehicle accidents (including ICBC claims).
I’m a lifelong learner and I’m currently doing post-graduate Chinese Medicine studies to prescribe and dispense herbal medicine.
My other pursuits include teaching yoga, practicing Ayurveda (traditional medicine of India), creating online wellness courses and singing and writing songs.
