Summer is taking it’s sweet time! As we use climate and not the calendar to utilize our medicine we keep up the spring dietetics. That means bitter greens, spring onions and sour foods like citrus and vinegar. Keep up the cooked warm foods. Avoid chilled things as always. It will be watermelon frappe time soon but not yet!

❎Back pain and neck pain aren't normal. Not if you work a lot. Not if you are super stressed out. Not if you work out. Not if you are pregnant. Not if you are over 30 years old.

If you are in pain your body is communicating to you.
Instead of taking pain killers seek help!

Acupuncture, Massage and Chinese Medicine are all ways you can start to address aches and pains. Sometimes we can help you work out how to make small but significant lifestyle changes to help too!

🧣Yeah I know you are tired of me telling you to dry off after your workout when its cold out and wear scarves. But if it helps........

Message us or follow the link in the bio to book an appointment
Because that pretzel you are currently in looking at your phone ain't helping I promise!

We’re now offering both in-person and online counselling at The Attic.

Our approach remains grounded in care — feminist, strengths-based, trauma-informed, and neurodiversity-affirming.

Whether you’re seeking individual or group support, sessions are a safe, collaborative space to explore, reflect, and reconnect.

🌿 Group therapy options are also available.

Pregnancy is often portrayed as a glowing, blissful time — but it isn’t like that for everyone.
Nausea, back pain, fatigue, and anxiety can all be part of the experience too.

At The Attic Brunswick, we use Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture, massage, and counselling to support your wellbeing through pregnancy.
With birth education and counselling, we can also work together toward the goals you have for birth and postpartum.

Not every pregnancy feels picture perfect — but with the right support, it can feel a little more manageable, grounded, and cared for.

Hi! I’m Millicent! The Attic is my clinic and where I practice acupuncture and counselling. I love helping my clients reach their health and life goals. I also love animals and plants. I am happiest hanging out with my family (both animal and human!) in the garden with a cup of tea. I look forward to meeting you and having a cuppa while we make a plan to help you get where you’re going!

I have been bombard with ads for vitamins that can apparently cure autism and adhd. Newsflash they can’t. Always consult with your health provider when taking over the counter supplements. Especially for kids. Be wary of anyone that advises you otherwise
