Our Story

Emma is a licensed acupuncturist, board-certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture & Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM.) She fell in love with Chinese Medicine at 18 yrs old, when acupuncture turned around her lifelong battle with chronic bronchitis & asthma. And somehow those magical needles not only helped her breathe better, they helped her know herself, get a sense of her own path & begin to walk it.  

​

Since childhood, Emma has used herbs, homeopathy, supplements, movement medicine, energy medicine & nature immersion in pursuit of a balanced body, mind & spirit. She spent her childhood & teen years immersed in horses, her 20s dancing in the ecstatic tradition & her 30s becoming Mama & managing a household of dogs & kids. Now, in her 40s, she is fascinated by physical aging as a rebirth into one's Wise Self. Emma continues to stand in awe of the depth & breadth of Chinese Medicine, shamanic mindset & the power of nature's rhythms to cure what ails.  

 

Emma is a graduate of Wu Hsing Tao School of Traditional Five Element Acupuncture, a certified 5Rhythms Movement teacher, a certified yoga teacher & an integrative medicine health coach. She is forever fascinated by the biological rhythms of the female body & feels privileged to support women in all their states of hormonal being - menstruation, fertility, pregnancy, post-partum, perimenopause, menopause & beyond. She also treats men! Even though her office is in a birth center! Emma is passionate about helping all her patients decipher the roots of their symptoms & guiding them into their own innate wisdom. 

 

Emma is a homeschooling mama of 2 wild & free kids, wife to an urban cowboy & lover of animals & nature. When she is not in clinic, she is generally covered in dog hair & mud, adventuring in the mountains with her family.
