Brio Integrative Health Centre

Late spring of this year, I received a series of 5 treatments of Bowen Therapy from Dr. Vanessa Yu. I started the treatment intending to work on chronic pain in my hip, but was pleasantly surprised at the unexpected results on two other troublesome long-time issues.Not only did the treatment seem to reduce my frequent urination (I generally told people I had the bladder of a gerbil), but it also improved the quality of my sleep, allowing me to rest at night much more consistently for 5 hours straight. This has made a huge difference on my overall energy level.While my hip pain didn't resolve itself in such a short time, I highly recommend giving this a try because you never know how you might be helped.

I have been going to Brio Health for naturopathic advice and supplements for almost two years. Dr. Jeffrey Lee is very friendly and has always been patience listening to my update before giving his comments and advices. Other staff in the office are also friendly and attentive.In December 2020, I started to feel some numbness on my right foot and toes, then it got worse and spread through my left arm and leg. I felt depressed and hopeless as I thought I had some neuro issue.After bringing this up to Dr. Lee, he immediately advised me to set up a diagnostics appointment with him. During the appointment, Dr. Lee did some tests that I had never experienced with my family doctor, and he informed me that I had nerve and blood circulation issues. Furthermore, Dr. Lee told me I had a lot of muscle tightness on my neck and back which could be treated with acupuncture. Then I started to see Dr. Lee for acupuncture treatment. Throughout the past six months, apart from getting the acupuncture treatments, Dr. Lee also advised different exercises and things that could improve my work posture. Now I am grateful to say that I feel 80% better. I hope this long message can encourage whoever that faces similar issue not to loss hope or give up. I am really thankful to Dr. Lee for his help.

I have been a patient at this clinic for over a year now and I couldn't be happier with Dr. Carin's guidance, healing, and treatments! Acupuncture with cupping is one of my favorite treatments and makes me feel really good and relaxed after. More recently, both my husband and I just finished a 10-day liver detox and it was a great experience! Highly recommend!

I have been going to Brio since suffering a severe stroke over seven years ago. I like the various team of professionals available in one clinic. A special shout out to Dr Dhiman who is so caring, kind and knowledgeable. in Bowen therapy. I have included naturopath therapies to my list of health and wellness checklist.

I am extremely grateful to have found Dr. Jeffrey Lee in 2014. I was researching best acupuncturist in Vancouver and came across his 5 star reviews on Yelp. Ever since I haven’t looked for any other acupuncturist and I’m keen on only seeing him for my debilitating endometriosis and the package of chronic pain and symptoms that come with it. I am inspired by Dr. Lee’s ethics and passion for his profession as he always makes me feel I am by far more valuable than profits. No matter how busy he gets when I come see him I always feel I am a priority and can always trust in his honesty and I appreciate him sharing his knowledge of TCM with me. I have recommended a lot of friends to him for years and will continue to do so for years to come. Thank you Dr. Lee for all your help and always going above and beyond.

Dr. Lee is a great doctor. He spends the time to get to the root cause of your health concerns. You can tell he really cares about his patients. The IV treatments from Brio are the best.

I saw Dr. Vanessa Yu for Bowen Therapy and it was a wonderful experience. Dr. Vanessa is so kind and in-tune with her patients needs. The Bowen sessions were focused on sleep and digestion, and after the first session I slept through the night in what felt like forever. Bowen therapy is a gentle touch and in itself really relaxing. I would highly recommend!

Dr. Lee is simply amazing. He has been instrumental in my continued recovery from a MVA last year that left me with lingering shoulder pain and kept me from so many activities that I love to do. Dr. Lee's care and attention to detail helped uncover an underlying condition that, with treatment, is seeing tremendous results. Dr. Lee, thank you so much and know that you can trust Brio and Dr. Lee with your health concerns and goals.

I’ve been meaning to write this review for a long time! I reached out to Brio Integrative Health Centre one night in tears sitting on my bed with the upper abdominal pain I had been dealing with for years at that point. Two GP’s and a Gastroenterologist couldn’t/wouldn’t figure out what was going on and was pretty much told “it is what it is”. I specifically requested to become a patient of Dr. Carin’s because her area of focus sounded like what I was going through, and I couldn’t be happier she took me on as a patient. She was calm, caring and listened. She held a very relaxed space and I felt completely comfortable talking to her about my symptoms and the history I had with this pain. After years of searching for answers, in maybe 2 appointments Dr. Carin figured out what was happening and we came up with a game plan on how to tackle this. I now live pain free and I’m SO grateful to her. This was literally life changing for me. I’ve told so many people about Dr. Carin, Brio and just naturopaths in general. If you’re considering seeing a naturopathic doctor, do it. Better yet, see Dr. Carin!

I developed allergy and rashes on my face and it lasted for almost 2 years. I had gone through many doctors - my family doctor, 2 dermatologists, and 2 Chinese doctors, they all told me I had eczema and none of them were able to fully cure my problem. I was devastated and thought I would suffer from this allergy for the rest of my life until I met Dr. Lee. At the beginning I didn’t have much confidence with Naturopathic medicine but Dr. Lee was able to diagnose my problem and I started to feel much better in about 3 months (I actually don’t have eczema!). He was really patience and supportive and was able to clearly explain what was happening to my body. I feel a lot better now and I'm so grateful to have found Dr. Lee! Also, the receptionists, Annette and Rav are super friendly and nice and they make the appointment booking process so much easier.
