Common Questions
Everything you need to know.
Is this clinic only for women?
No. Femade – A Bravella Health Clinic was created to support individuals navigating health concerns related to reproductive and hormonal health. While our care has roots in supporting those experiencing conditions often associated with the female body, we welcome people of all gender identities and expressions. Our goal is to provide an inclusive, affirming, and safe space where everyone can access exceptional care.
Do I need a referral from a physician?
Most of our services do NOT require a referral, which means you can book an appointment with any of our practitioners depending on availability. Unless you’re interested in our Menopause Health Clinic with Dr. Celine Sayed, download the referral form here
Do I need to have a chronic illness to come?
No. Femade has expanded beyond pain management to support overall health, wellness, and self-care for everyone. While our practitioners specialize in caring for those living with chronic illness, pain, and reproductive health conditions, you do not need a diagnosis to access care — and if you do have a chronic condition, you’re in experienced hands

I highly recommend acupuncture with Negeen. Her attention to detail, warmth, and client-centred approach make her an amazing acupuncturist. She is skilled at releasing muscle tension/knots like no other acupuncturist I’ve been to before! She and the Femade clinic have cultivated a very inclusive, welcoming, and friendly environment - wish I found them sooner! Thank you Negeen and Femade 🙂
