After trying for a year to conceive, one month of acupuncture blessed us with a little man. I was highly recommended to Meredith after my sister had a very similar experience and also got pregnant after a month with Meredith. Can’t say enough great things about her!!… Read the rest
I went to Meredith for severe leg pains that I’ve suffered with for over 10 yrs. It affected my performance on the treadmill and kept me awake every night. After 3 treatments, I was pain free and back to running as well as sleeping much better.… Read the rest
Meredith has helped me with acupuncture for many issues over the years. Including wrist pain, stress reduction, labor induction and most important balancing my body and hormones after the births and breastfeeding of my children.

Meredith is the only acupuncturist that I trust. She is one of the few that have high level certifications and licenses in the area as well as having a masters in acupunture. While also researching for acupuncturist, I made sure she did not do any wierd buddha?… Read the rest
“When I first began working with Meredith, I quickly learned that she knew infinitely more about fertility acupuncture treatments than any other practitioner I had worked with. Her extensive knowledge helped me to learn what to expect- not only while in her office, but when working with my doctors.… Read the rest
I came to Meredith and Kim for treatment of a pinched nerve. The ensuing stiffness and pain from the affected nerve caused systemic stiffness which made it difficult to run or move. Since receiving treatment (only 3 total visits between Kim and Meredith so far!), nearly all the stiffness in my legs and neck has completely dissipated, resulting in increased flexibility and dramatically less pain.… Read the rest
“I began acupuncture treatments several years ago at my mother-in-law’s suggestion. She was being treated for chemical sensitivity/allergy issues, and found that she was improving greatly. I was trying to get pregnant and was not ovulating and also had irregular menstrual cycles. The fertility clinic suggested we try invitro fertilization (IVF) and while going through this process, I was getting acupuncture treatments.… Read the rest

“I had been trying to conceive my second child for almost 2 years-I had been diagnosed w/ PCOS & had very irregular cycles. I decided to try acupuncture to see if that would help & after less than 6 months of treatments from Meredith, my cycles became more regular than they had been in years-soon after I got pregnant naturally-even after going through several low-invasive fertility treatments- my son is now 4 months old!”… Read the rest
Migraines. Stress. Migraines. Fatigue. Migraines. Just about every single day I experienced these issues, often to debilitating extents. And I’d tried everything from counseling to massage to pills, but none of it worked. When I finally got tired of feeling like a pharmacy I took a good look at my needle-phobic self and decided “What the heck?”,… Read the rest

Acupuncture for Healthy Weight Loss
In the United States, an estimated 300,000 people a year die from obesity.
In several studies over the last five years, researchers have shown patients who receive regular acupuncture treatments see faster weight loss results than those who do not. In each case, the acupuncture treatments were combined with dietary and lifestyle changes also aimed at weight loss, but the patients who got acupuncture saw better results than those who focused on dietary and lifestyle changes alone. continue reading

Regrowth: Spring and Traditional Chinese Medicine
Three thousand years ago, when Chinese medicine was first being practiced, there was no light or electricity. No way to mask the darkness of winter. No way, either, to ignore the longer, warmer days of springtime. Because it is such an ancient practice, a lot of the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine comes from a time when people spent much more time outside, paying attention to the natural world around them. continue reading
Acupuncture for Diabetes
More than 34 million Americans have diabetes, and approximately 90 percent of them have type 2 diabetes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Type 2 diabetes, while its exact cause is unknown, develops when the body becomes resistant to insulin or the pancreas doesn’t produce enough insulin. Because of this, treatment often involves taking “insulin sensitizers” or medication that helps the body increase its sensitivity and therefore ability to process insulin, keeping the blood sugar from getting too low. Unfortunately, this medication often causes side effects, including weight gain and anemia. continue reading
5 Acupoints for Anxiety You Can Administer Yourself
“At a time when people are so conscious of maintaining their physical health by controlling their diets, exercising, and so forth, it makes sense to try to cultivate the corresponding mental attitudes too.”
– HH the Dalai Lama, 1963
It can be easy to forget how much our mental state can affect our physical well-being. In Traditional Chinese Medicine, that connection is evident in the treatment strategies, but it is also true that when we are feeling bad, we don’t always think to look at our minds. It works both ways. continue reading
Acupuncture Wrapped: An overview of some of the most exciting discoveries in 2020
As we enter a new year, it is natural to want to look back on the last one. As humans, we have the gift and the hurdle of marking time, so it can feel helpful to recall memories we want to hold on to or look for lessons we can take with us.
To that end, here are three categories in which research into the type, application and efficacy of acupuncture saw significant advancements in 2020, findings that will certainly help guide us as we move forward. In a year that saw so much focus on our health, these findings offer some good news in the fields of pain management without opioids, migraine headaches, and insight into why it is that acupuncture is effective as an anti-inflammatory. continue reading
Intention setting in the new year
It’s that time of year again: the time when many of us engage in the practice of setting a new year’s resolution.
It seems, though, that hand-in-hand with new year’s resolutions is the prediction of inevitable failure. That as soon as you pick a resolution, you won’t actually make it through the whole year sticking with the new behavior, or that by the third week of January the resolution will be out of sight, out of mind. So, I wanted to offer some tips on how to join in the tradition in a way that might foster more success, by incorporating some wisdom from traditional Chinese medicine. continue reading
Winter and your Kidneys
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, health is achieved by living in balance with nature and the seasons. Winter, the season of the Water Element, is the season for slowing down, reflecting, and conserving our resources. We all feel this tendency, but we don’t always listen to our bodies. In Western culture, being active is rewarded and expected. We feel compelled to keep up the hectic pace that is typical in our daily lives.
This season is associated with the kidneys, bladder, and adrenal glands and the time of year when these organs are most active, accessible, and even vulnerable. They are more receptive to being restored, nurtured, and energized. At the same time, it is also when they can become easily depleted. continue reading
