Lejla Fazlicic, D. Ac

Acupuncturist

Dr. Leila Fazlicic D. Ac is an award-winning Doctor of Acupuncture. Lejla (Layla) is a Doctor of Acupuncture, Certified Medical Cannabis Consultant and Acupuncture Detoxification Specialist providing acupuncture treatment locally and online health/wellness coaching, who enjoys helping others live the happiest and healthiest life possible. Being an R. N. during the war in Bosnia, Lejla witnessed unimaginable extreme pain and suffering. It is an experience that brought interest to learn as much as possible to help those in need. Choosing Acupuncture as a specialty gives her the opportunity to witness the miracles fairly often.

Becoming Certified Medical Cannabis Consultant gives her the tools to use for deep healing by rebalancing the endocannabinoid system responsible for maintaining healthy homeostasis. The holistic approach is deeply rooted in her mission; she believes that the body-mind-spirit connection is a healthy base for optimal health. It is hard to have a healthy body without a healthy mind and spirit. That is why her focus is a personal approach for each client because no two people are the same.

Working with hundreds of clients over the years, I get to see over and over again how much suffering can be eradicated by yourself. Pain, inflammation, cardiovascular diseases, metabolic syndrome (diabetes, high cholesterol, high blood pressure), PCOS, infertility anxiety may be managed (even reversed) thru proper lifestyle changes and supplements.
With experience, I developed the 6-step program that will help you restore health and happiness. Healing is a personal journey, and my focus is on you, not a group of similar people.

That is why I create an individual plan for each client, and I am holding you accountable. I will provide strategy, tips, and support. You bring the willingness, and your health will be restored in no time.
