Dr. Shawn is a Coast Guard veteran, Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, and a practitioner who understands healing from both a clinical and deeply personal place. As someone who navigated her own journey with Crohn’s disease, she fell in love with the way acupuncture supports the body at its most foundational level—restoring balance, regulating the nervous system, and inviting the body back into harmony.
She blends Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern techniques, using acupuncture, fire cupping, acupoint injection therapy, and aesthetic acupuncture to address pain, stress, inflammation, digestive issues, sleep, and whole-body wellness. Her treatments are gentle, thoughtful, and completely tailored to what each body needs in the moment.
As a lifelong athlete, she brings a unique, informed perspective to sports recovery, mobility, performance, and chronic tension patterns. Whether you are seeking pain relief, hormonal support, a calmer nervous system, or natural facial rejuvenation, Dr. Shawn creates a space that feels both restorative and deeply empowering.
• Settle into your body
• Reconnect with your breath
• Release what feels heavy
• Shift out of survival mode
• Step back into balance
Each treatment is designed to help you:
It’s restorative, regulating, and intentionally slow — because the body heals best when it feels safe.
Dr. Shawn believes acupuncture is more than needles — it’s an invitation for your body to soften, unwind, and remember its own healing rhythm.
Her sessions blend calming nervous-system work, gentle hands, and a deep awareness of how the body holds tension, stress, pain, and emotion.
