Hi! I’m Dr. Lauren and I discovered the world of Traditional Chinese Medicine while needing a solution for my own health concerns as a young adult. Fascinated by the depth and detail of each acupuncture treatment, I knew I needed to pivot my career path and be the source for others to experience what I had experienced. Acupuncture involves the insertion of sterile, single use needles (no thicker than a strand of hair), into a collection of points on the body. These points exist along channels, or meridians, which correspond to and are responsible for, the health and function of our organs.

Along with acupuncture, I may include cupping therapy, or gua sha therapy, into your treatment. These are other ancient modalities used to encourage the body to heal, increase the circulation of Qi (energy) and Blood, and relieve muscle tension. Acupuncture can be used to treat a variety of conditions such as;

• chronic headaches or migraines
• period irregularities or PMS symptoms
• digestive issues
• sleeping issues
• emotional imbalances
• hormonal imbalances
• seasonal allergies or sinus issues
• brain fog
• post-covid or flu
• cosmetic acupuncture
• back pain or sciatica
• pain in joints
• and many more!

I look forward to helping you feel your best. When you see me, don’t hesitate to ask questions - it is an honor to be a part of your journey to optimal health and happiness!
