Nikita Braddy is nationally board-certified in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. She earned her BS in Health Sciences and MS in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine from East West College of Natural Medicine in Sarasota, Florida. After graduating, she moved to Seattle, WA to explore the Pacific Northwest and joined an integrative clinic, working alongside naturopaths, chiropractors, physical therapists, and massage therapists to support patients through injury recovery, pain management, and overall wellness.
During her time in Seattle, she also completed advanced certifications in Facial and Cosmetic Acupuncture and Microneedling. After six years of West Coast living, she felt called back home and returned to Florida in April 2025—excited to be back in the sunshine state.
While her primary focus has been sports injuries and pain management through IMS/dry needling, Nikita enjoys treating a wide range of conditions, including digestive issues, menstrual irregularities, pelvic floor dysfunction, sleep concerns, stress, and facial conditions such as Bell’s palsy and TMJ. She incorporates electrical stimulation, cupping, and Gua Sha when beneficial.
Nikita’s goal as a practitioner is to truly connect with her patients—listening deeply, educating them along the way, and working together to address the root cause of their concerns.
Outside the clinic, she loves exploring nature, cooking, gardening, exercising, reading, spending quality time with loved ones, and greeting every dog she meets. She also holds a BS in Finance and Management from the University of South Florida and a first-degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do/Karate.
