We are opening our doors for a Community Care Day this Friday, 1-4 pm.

This is a space for those choosing not to go to school or work, for those holding big feelings, and for anyone in need of solace and connection.

Come as you are.

We will have mini reiki sessions, sound healing, acupressure, tea, connection… and space to SCREAM!

We believe care is a vital part of the work for justice. Come find sustenance and solidarity with us.

This is a free offering. Donations gratefully accepted to support our practitioners and future care days.

Caring is resistance.

Community is crucial.

It’s been awhile, but I am finally opening up my acupuncture schedule a bit and taking new patients. In the 14 years I’ve been slinging needles, I’ve learned a lot about what I’m passionate about and how I work.

In Chinese medicine there is a saying, “Treat the roots, not the branches.” This is a key notion in the Five Element Tradition, which is rooted in the observance of nature and how our bodies are merely reflections of the earth itself. I have found my niche is working on the deep emotional and spiritual components of illness and pain, rather than focusing on the physical symptoms. I am not one to use quick fix protocols and tools.

My sessions have evolved into an alchemical blend combining the acupuncture with stones, reiki, and even sound healing. Sometimes we might pull cards. Each session is unique.

When choosing a practitioner of any type, whether it be an MD, chiropractor, energy worker, etc, it’s incredibly important to find one you connect with. No one person is the best fit for everyone (even if they say otherwise).

I know my sessions won’t resonate with everyone, and that’s ok. There are many wonderful acupuncturists around, and I’m happy to recommend some!

To read more about my journey to acupuncture and about me, click the link in the bio (or the website) and feel free to ask questions. As many of you know, I can and will talk nonstop about the 5 elements when given the chance.

The human body is a microcosm of the earth. Our bodies experience the shifts of the seasons and the stars, just as the earth does.

Acupuncture meridians follow the body’s topography, similar to how rivers, streams, and veins of minerals flow on the earth.

Acupuncture points lie along these channels and are places where energy pools, much like an eddy swirls near a rock in a river.
The earth has acupuncture points, too. Places where energy has gathered. Places where sacred temples now stand, healing waters bubble up, and mountains stand tall.

I place stones on acupuncture points on the body to aid in healing, growth, and evolution.

I place stones on the earth points to do the same.

As I have worked less with human bodies these past 6 months, I have felt the pull to work the earth points even more. Building grids and leaving stones in places that need deep healing. Places desperate to heal from painful events, and places that are desperate for their true history to finally be revealed. There are so many places in Georgia calling out for this assistance.

When we work to heal the earth-we also work to heal ourselves. And when we work to heal ourselves-we also heal the earth. We are intertwined in unimaginable ways.
