Dr. Brittny Antoine is a pain management specialist practicing acupuncture and Chinese medicine in Lafayette, Louisiana. Born and raised in New Iberia, Louisiana, Dr. Antoine earned her Bachelor of Science in Biology at Howard University in Washington, D.C., and received both her master's and doctoral degrees at the Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in San Diego, California. After graduation, she became an apprentice of Dr. Donald Snow in Lake Charles, LA, and then the Clinical Director of Dr. Snow's 2nd clinic in Lafayette until she opened her own clinic in Lafayette three years later. She is particularly fascinated with the mind-body connection and tries to explore this in her practice of Chinese Medicine. She has a passion for spreading the word about the efficacy of acupuncture to her local community and advocates for Chinese Medicine as a low-cost solution to the opioid epidemic in America and the high occurrence of chronic pain. Chinese medicine is also an excellent alternative to the standard care in women's health and fertility. Her ultimate goal is to see the integration of medicine in America to include more natural modalities through building relationships with practitioners in the Western medical community.
For chronic pain or other chronic internal issues I expect to see patients 1-2 times a week until the severity decreases. As symptom relief improves, we can space sessions further and further apart. The end goal is that you’ll only need to come monthly-quarterly for maintenance. On average, it takes about three months to get to maintenance.
For fertility patients, you can expect to come weekly for 6 months. I do not recommend actively trying until 3 months in to treatments.
If you have anything abnormal going on in your body, we will treat it. Our customizable wellness options allow us to create a treatment plan that works. We will work on:
• Menstrual cramps
• Anxiety
• Fertility
• Old injuries
• Menopause
• Muscle soreness

I was nervous about this process in the beginning but Dr. Antoine was patience and went with my pace but incorporated what was need along the way. Now I feel she is essential to my quality of life and my journey to manage my pain better. 10/10 Highly Recommended!

Brittany does a wonderful job at treating conditions traditionally difficult to manage. As someone dealing with Multiple Sclerosis, and all its my symptoms, as well as Chronic Migraine, I have personally seen the benefits of Mrs. Antione’s knowledge, skill and kindness. I’ve seen improvements across the board. Recently, I was having a particularly tough time with my neuropathy, and I have seen significant improvement. I could not be happier…..Definitely ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My actual review would be 5x2! Yesterday was my very first acupuncture treatment ever, and needless to say the results were amazing. I had been living with neck pain for years. I tried various methods of treatment, but this was a game changer for me. These are a list of my improvements: improved eyesight, improved range of motion, decreased pain, energy, clarity, excitement, etc. I slept like a baby without any sleep aid. That alone was worth it all. I thank God for Dr. Antoine’s patience, her intuitiveness and compassion for making a huge impact on my life. Thank you and God Bless You! ❤️

This was my first time trying acupuncture and wow! Not only was Dr. Brittney and staff polite, gentle and knowledgeable, she guided me through all the steps of our visit. My first acupuncture treatment was wonderful! My knee hasn't felt this good in over 15yrs. Will certainly continue my acupuncture treatments with Dr. Brittney! 10/10
