The Clinic
Clayton Willoughby
Registered Acupuncturist
Before attending the International College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Vancouver, he studied at Malaspina (now VIU) in the Nursing program. Working in Acupuncture has been the goal since high school - it provides a great opportunity to work closely with people and help affect positive changes.
Initially, Clayton struggled with how to provide quality acupuncture service because the cost was out of reach for many people in his community. Several years ago, he found out about the Community Acupuncture Network and finally found the blueprint for being able to do what he loves and still keep food on the table.
