About
Black Spruce Acupuncture
Alix has been working in the field of acupuncture and natural wellness since 2011. She was raised in northern BC, where she fostered a love of the outdoors and a penchant for continuous learning. She combines her passion for research and "get to the root" attitude with a compassionate ear and hands-on intuitive approach to treatment.
Alix strives to bridge the gap between Eastern and Western concepts of health. She respects each individual’s right to express and present themselves relative to their religion, culture, ethnic background, sexual and gender orientation, and physical and mental abilities, and acknowledges that all range of human experience may factor in to overall health.
With each initial treatment, Alix offers a Consultation & Assessment complete with treatment plan, diet/lifestyle advice, and home care suggestions. If you are unsure what acupuncture can do for your case, she offers a free 15-minute consultation with no obligation.
