Treatments

Treatment

Acupuncture

Acupuncture is part of the ancient practice of Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). TCM is a system of healthcare that has evolved over thousands of years to prevent, diagnose, and treat disease. TCM believes that the body's vital energy, called qi (pronounced chi), flows along specific channels or meridians. If the qi is balanced then the person has spiritual, emotional, and physical health. But when the qi isn't in balance, disease may occur. Qi can be blocked, causing unbalance between the yin and yang. This refers to two opposite but connected principles in Chinese philosophy TCM uses many approaches to create harmony between yin and yang and restore correct flow of energy through the meridians. One of these approaches is acupuncture. The human body has more than 2,000 acupuncture points. They are linked through the various channels. The use of acupuncture on certain points within the meridians is believed to improve the flow of blocked or stagnant qi. Acupuncture can unblock these channels. This restores movement of qi and improves health.

The actual practice of acupuncture includes placing thin needles into the skin on certain points of a meridian. Studies have shown that acupuncture works well for many conditions such as stress, digestive disorders, hormonal and sexual organ imbalances, infertility, sleep issues, MSK injuries, headaches, migraines, breech presenting babies, birth prep and labour outcomes, anxiety, depression and many more.

Lacy has been a practicing Acupuncturist since 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, especially Crohn’s Disease led her to discovering the benefits of Acupuncture and East Asian Medicine. She was so fascinated with how it helped me that I made a career out of it.

Her approach to health is a blend of Traditional Chinese Medicine education along with my 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. Lacy has special interest in treating pain, autoimmunity, mental health, digestive and fertility/hormonal imbalances.

My journey into holistic health and starting my business, Tonify Wellness, began in 2011 when I started working as a caregiver for Community Living Victoria. Over the years, I have had the privilege of working with individuals with diverse medical, physical, cognitive, and behavioral challenges. This experience has taught me the profound impact that lifestyle changes and preventative medicine can have on one’s health. I am deeply passionate about making holistic medicine accessible to everyone and educating about the benefits of a healthy lifestyle. By integrating Eastern and Western perspectives on health, I can create impactful treatment plans that significantly improve the lives of my patients. When I’m not working, you can catch me on the local hiking trails with my dog Indy, riding my bike, and hanging out in my garden with friends and family :)

Hi, I’m Calum. I’m a registered clinical counsellor (BCACC #23339) with a Master’s in Counselling Psychology. Before becoming a counsellor I held many different roles where I always found myself helping people. At first, my mechanical engineering background led me to the computer-aided design of prosthetics. From there, I spent 12 years helping rugby players and coaches make decisions under pressure at hundreds of competitions including the Olympics and Rugby World Cups. I’ve co-founded three men’s support groups which promote emotional literacy, communication, and belonging among men. I’ve also worked in the trades, public service, and corporate coaching. While my job titles have varied, I’ve consistently built safety, trust, and deep connection with those around me.

I’m a strong believer in counselling’s ability to help people move through life’s difficult periods from my experiences as both a client and practitioner. I’m genuinely honoured that you’re considering working with me. Please know I’m committed to supporting you with empathy, respect, and dedication during our work together.

Outside of counselling, you’ll usually find me outdoors with my wife and Timber - our flat-coated retriever mix. I can’t seem to walk past a bike shop without being drawn in, and Timber is the same with anywhere he thinks might have treats.

Scheduling information: sessions are available at the following times:

Tuesdays, 3-6pm (virtual or nature-based)
