Experience exceptional patient-centered care with meaningful results.

Relief Acupuncture was born from my own journey of self-healing.

In 2009, at the age of 31, I found myself in the midst of a…let’s call it a mini early midlife crisis. I walked away from a lucrative but entirely unfulfilling career in insurance.  I ended a long-term relationship that no longer served me, and I left my established life in California and returned to my roots in Wisconsin to be closer to an expanding family.  So. Much. Change. This massive upheaval came with a hefty share of stress, anxiety, and a pretty extreme sense of loss.  I was feeling completely stuck. 

This is where fate, the cosmos, and perhaps a touch of magic nudged me towards my next bold adventure…

A chance encounter with an Acupuncturist changed everything.  He recommended I try acupuncture to help alleviate my anxiety and feelings of overwhelm.  It took only one treatment for me to be hooked!  For the first time in nearly a year, I felt calm, happy, and at ease. I knew I had connected with something powerful, and I knew I wanted to bring this medicine to my community.

I immediately embarked on an intensive four-year Master’s program in Chinese Medicine. Before completing my final day of school, I passed my boards and began building my dream clinic in 2014.  I built a clinic for people like me. 

Today, I am privileged to work with 80 patients each week, providing over 3,600 treatments per year in acupuncture and herbal medicine. The incredible thrill of helping patients feel better in their bodies and minds grows stronger every year. I love this medicine. I love my clinic. And I truly cherish partnering with patients to help them find freedom through better health. It is an honor to be working with you.
