Dr. Vanessa Lee, ND
À propos de Vanessa
Dans ses motsHello, my name is Dr. Vanessa Lee. I have been practicing Naturopathic Medicine (including acupuncture) for over 20 years, and Reiki and Energy Healing for more than 23 years. At Aster Wellness Centre, I am deeply committed to creating individualized treatment plans that honor the unique story, physiology, and lived experience of each patient.
My approach blends evidence-informed naturopathic care with a compassionate, whole-person lens. Treatment plans may include appropriate testing, short-term symptom relief, and—most importantly—strategies that address root causes to support lasting, meaningful change. I believe true healing unfolds when we look beneath the surface and work with the body, rather than against it.
I am a Reiki Master and have a longstanding passion for a variety of energy healing modalities. Many patients report a profound sense of relaxation, calmness, and inner healing when I combine acupuncture with guided meditation and energy work. A key focus of my practice is helping patients recognize nervous system dysregulation and gently shift out of “fight or flight,” creating the internal conditions where healing can occur more naturally.
At the heart of my work is listening.
>I believe that when people are offered a non-judgmental, attentive space to share their story, clarity and insight often emerge.
Each patient’s health is a complex and meaningful puzzle, and I find great fulfillment in working collaboratively to help the pieces come back together—supporting a renewed sense of wholeness.
A patient’s health history often holds valuable clues to new and unexpected treatment pathways. I have witnessed time and again how meaningful change can occur when patients feel supported, motivated, and empowered to engage in their own healing process. It is a privilege to walk alongside individuals as they move toward greater physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual balance.
With time and experience comes perspective. My own health challenges—digestive concerns, acne and skin conditions, seasonal allergies, food sensitivities, stress, muscle tension, back pain, headaches, anxiety, and fatigue—have not only shaped my path, but deepened my empathy and clinical insight. These experiences continually motivate me to ask “Why?” and to dig deeper in service of my patients’ care.
Health and personal growth are lifelong journeys. Naturopathic medicine can help make those journeys feel more supported, sustainable, and even enjoyable.
My Background
* B.Sc. in Cell & Molecular Biology at SFU, Burnaby, BC.
* Naturopathic Medicine degree from the Canadian College of Naturopathic Medicine (CCNM) in Toronto, ON.
* Opened & ran a busy Naturopathic clinic in downtown Toronto for 7 years, focusing on women’s health, digestive regulation, stress management, general healthy living/disease prevention.
* In 2011, a rare opportunity came. My husband (also a Naturopathic Doctor) and I moved near Chicago, Illinois to support to cancer patients undergoing conventional treatments in a hospital setting. I learned how conventional & natural, two seemingly different paths, can work together to safely support cancer patients.
* After our daughter’s birth in 2016, we moved back to B.C. to be close to our families. I joined the Aster Wellness family in 2017, and loved reconnecting with the local community where I grew up!
* I have been doing a lot of personal growth in the past 2 years, and I’m rediscovering what it means to feel centered, now that I’m home.
