Dr. Jennifer Brix
Naturopathic Physician
As a co-owner of Brix Wellness Group, I am dedicated to patient care, offering an interdisciplinary experience in the Okanagan and on Vancouver Island. For the past 12 years, I have absolutely loved being in the clinic setting, but after my family expanded in 2021, I transitioned to offering a mostly virtual practice, allowing me to spend more time with my young family.
In addition to seeing patients, I am an educational specialist for Factors Group of Nutritional Supplements, Inc., training health industry retailers and educating the public on many areas of health. I have a passion for learning and research and am a three-times academically published writer. I appear regularly as a guest on radio and television shows, host webinars, and provide health articles for various publications. Following my love for delicious, healthy, real food, I am also a Nutrition and Medical Consultant for a health-conscious and sustainability-driven company, providing nutritionally dense, environmentally responsible food & drink options. And, with my growing family, I have become involved in early childhood care and am a founding partner of a childcare academy and co-working facility to help working parents eliminate the barriers to a successful career while raising a family.
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.
In my spare time, I combine my passion for education with a commitment to educating on matters close to my heart. I am actively involved in conservation and sustainability initiatives, promoting awareness of the delicate relationship between wild elephants and the Samburu people of Eastern Africa and the trafficking of animals in Ecuador. I have also volunteered in home building and medical care projects in Mexico and Nicaragua and hope to instill these values in my children.
When not seeing patients or travelling, I enjoy exploring our beautiful backyard, whether it be hiking the forests or surfing the waves, with my husband chiropractor Christian Brix, daughter Pippa, and English cocker spaniel, Matty.
