Inspired by the profound wisdom & healing potential of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Melanie brings a thoughtful, compassionate, & individualized approach to every treatment.

She believes that supporting the body's natural ability to heal is both a privilege & one of the greatest joys in her life. Her areas of focus include stress management, hormonal health & fertility, weight management, pain relief, endocrinology, microneedling & facial rejuvenation.

Whether you are seeking relief from pain, support through life's transitions, or simply looking to cultivate greater health and vitality, Melanie is committed to providing care that honors the whole person—body, mind, and spirit.

 
Melanie is a Licensed Acupuncturist in the state of California & a nationally board-certified Diplomate of Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM).

She graduated from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2013 and has been dedicated to helping patients achieve greater balance, vitality, and well-being ever since.

 
During her studies, Melanie had the opportunity to intern with renowned fertility specialist Dr. Lifang Liang, whose teachings continue to influence her approach to patient care today.

Outside of the clinic, you'll often find Melanie spending time with her family, dipping her toes in the Russian River, or getting lost in a good book. She lives in Petaluma with her partner and two children and feels grateful to serve the community she calls home.

 

My Philosophy:
I believe that achieving wellness from within is the key to overall physical and mental well-being.
