TV PERSONALITY & SPOKESPERSON
Hi! I'm Dr. Jennifer Brix, a born and raised urbanite of Victoria, BC. After completing undergraduate studies at the University of Victoria, working in the medical research field, and volunteering on three continents, I returned to school and graduated from CCNM-Boucher as a Naturopathic Physician. After more than 12 years of practicing in the clinical setting, I am following my dream of creating virtual health plans and programs that meld my passion for education with helping others achieve optimal health.
I am a member in good standing with the ​​​​​​​College of Complimentary Health Professionals of BC, the BC Naturopathic Association, and the Canadian Association of Naturopathic Doctors. I am certified in Acupuncture, Bowen Therapy, Neural and Injection Therapy, Immunization from the BCCDC, and hold BC Prescription Rights.
Why Naturopathic Medicine?
Dr. Jen can help with
DIGESTION
Heartburn, gas, bloating, pain, or just not the perfect poop? An accurate diagnosis can determine what is out of balance and how to correct it for optimal nutrient digestion and absorption.
FATIGUE
Fatigue can stem from poor sleep and nutrient deficiencies, to adrenal burnout and suboptimal neurotransmitter levels. Determine how each of these may be playing a crucial role in your life in order to boost overall energy levels.
IMMUNITY
Whether you are wanting to prevent infection, cool an autoimmune flare-up, or support your cancer treatment plan, immune modulation and balance is key and can be individualized for your specific needs.
HORMONE BALANCING
Hormone testing is used to detect levels of bio-available hormones and their metabolites including thyroid hormones, estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, DHEA, and cortisol. Excesses or deficiencies of these can contribute to symptoms of PMS, menopause, irregular cycles, abnormal hair growth, fatigue, mood swings, weight gain, and poor sleep.
BRAIN HEALTH
With four years of training in a post-concussion and brain focused clinic, programs involving nutritional counselling, hormone testing, and neurotransmitter assessment may be implemented to support the treatment of conditions such as post-concussion syndrome, depression, anxiety, PTSD, ADD/ADHD, and neurodegenerative conditions.
FERTILITY + PRENATAL CARE
Naturopathic medicine, with its holistic, patient-centric philosophy, can help resolve fertility challenges and improve conception. Often the key is uncovering what is preventing a couple from conceiving and addressing the underlying causes of infertility. In addition, prenatal support is provided to ensure a healthy pregnancy is maintained. Postnatally, nutrition goals, mood support, and healthy lactation
are addressed.
