CJR ACUPUNCTURE - CHRIS RUSSELL
Growing up exploring the outdoors in Northern B.C. helped Chris gain an appreciation for the connection we all have to the natural world which was deepened by studying Chemistry at the University of Victoria and graduating with a Bachelors of Science in 2011. As life experience grew, and the realities of living with addiction and mental health challenges within his family came to a point, Chris turned his pain into a superpower to help others grow and understand themselves and live outside of limiting beliefs and trauma. Appreciating the power of the mind-body connection when discovering the practice of Hypnotherapy shortly after graduating from University led Chris to further study a Diploma of Acupuncture at Pacific Rim College and become a Registered Acupuncturist (R.Ac) in British Columbia. Maintaining a private patient-centered practice in beautiful Lake Country B.C. Chris focuses on treating pain, injury and internal disorders as well as supporting families with maternity and fertility acupuncture throughout the greater Okanagan.
