NATUROPATHIC MEDICINE
Dr. Hayley Owens, ND
Dr. Hayley Owens became a licensed Naturopathic Physician because she wants to help you live your best physical, mental, emotional and spiritual life. Unable to ignore this yearning to guide others to achieve their optimal health goals, Dr. Owens left her career as a Chartered Accountant and Management Consultant to pursue her healing passion, which she sensed was her life's purpose.
Beyond the clinic, Dr. Owens loves to improve her tennis and golf game, ride horses, and take her daughter biking and camping. She is happiest while immersed in nature with her family, being active, eating delicious food, and listening to great music.

CLINIC ADMINISTRATION
sha-la
I enjoy being creative at home and in my patio garden. In the last year, I officially started my yoga journey with the Ashtanga practice and look forward to the power of support from all types of yoga. Grounding at the beach with the feet in the sand has been essential along with welcoming the energetic warmth from the trees. We live in such a beautiful place! I am beyond grateful to be living in Victoria and to be here at Circle Integrative Wellness!
