Solarice is owned and operated by Doctor Lisa Skerritt.
Originally from St. Kitts in the Caribbean, Lisa was brought up by parents with pharmaceutical training. In addition to traditional Western medicine, Lisa’s parents had a wide knowledge and interest in folk medicine that was brought to the island by the native South Americans and Africans. Growing up and seeing first hand the healing powers of herbs insprired Lisa’s interest in Chinese Medicine. After years of education in Chinese Medicine, Herbology, Shiatsu and Acupuncture from around the world including the US and the UK, Lisa specialized in the treatment of addiction, muscular-skeletal disorders, insomnia, stress-related illness, irritable bowel syndrome and migraines. Lisa was inspired to open Solarice after setting up and managing the Acupuncture for Addiction clinics in Vancouver’s Downtown East Side, and watching lives transform.
Lisa retired from private practice in 2008 to propel Solarice to the highest possible level of exceptional service and unparalled customer satisfaction, and to play, travel and parent.
