Services
Acupuncture
Acupuncture involves inserting fine needles into specific points to balance Qi, alleviate pain, and treat conditions like anxiety, fertility issues, and digestive disorders. Our treatments integrate traditional techniques with modern medical insights. Patients experience improved energy flow and symptom relief through personalized sessions tailored to their health goals.
Herbal Medicine
Customized herbal formulas using bulk herbs, granules, or tea pills address chronic and acute health concerns. We focus on individualized care, combining centuries-old TCM principles with contemporary research to enhance digestion, immunity, and hormonal balance. Patients receive guidance on preparation and integration into daily routines for optimal results.
Cupping Therapy
Cupping uses glass or silicone cups to create suction, promoting blood flow and relieving muscle tension. This therapy targets respiratory issues, pain management, and post-injury recovery. Sessions leave patients relaxed while accelerating healing through increased circulation and toxin release from affected areas.

I have seen many other acupuncturists and Lenore has by far been the most thorough and informative! The treatments have been unique every time and she has treated me as a whole and worked to help my symptoms as well as shared her wisdom in Chinese medicine and given advice on diet and recipes and herbs and balance ect to get everything back into alignment. I would highly recommend Wild Earth Acupuncture!!

A great space with wonderful energy. Lenore has a depth of knowledge that may be bottomless! I have learned so much in just our first few sessions and have already seen results in a few areas of focus. Her approach is holistic and I really feel like my body and mind are going to have a better life because of what we are fixing! Couldn't be happier with her as my acupuncturist!

Wonderful practitioner to work with and awesome Covid protocol adherence! I felt so comfortable and even in just the handful of sessions we have made some great headway into resolving several issues and creating a plan for a healthier body and mindset. I truly appreciate being one of Lenore's clients and cannot wait for my next appointment to learn from her extensive expertise!
