“For the first time in 6 weeks, I was able to relax and sleep”

“My daughter just moved to Germany and I struggled with not having her around the house. I only slept for 2 to 3 hours the entire week after she left….After my treatment, my entire body just felt so heavy but very relaxed. And for the first time in a week since my baby girl moved out of the country, I was able to relax and sleep for 6 hours.”

— Kat M.

For when your changing body impacts your mental health

Most of what we women know about menopause we’ve learned accidentally. And when your body starts to feel different with a long list of symptoms: you feel both unheard and desperate.


Other providers advise you to take this pill or that or “just lose weight”, but it’s frustrating because you know it’s not the right answer. You sense that there’s a deeper connection between your mood swings, hormones, and digestion. But to achieve it, you also sense you’ll need the right guidance. 


Having worked with hundreds of women going through the exact same hidden struggles, we’re here to help you find relief, calmness, and feel more in control of your health with integrated and gentle natural treatments.

Who we’re here to help:

Women struggling with high emotions, a lack of sleep, and chronic fatigue

Mothers with kids who stopped taking care of themselves, but to begin anew

Retirees & empty nesters who want to take charge of their health

“When I leave there I feel so totally relieved from pain.”

“Dr. Shawne is awesome! She listens to your needs and applies her treatment accordingly with care and such a pleasant attitude. When I leave there I feel so totally relieved from pain…She's the best and I really enjoy the experience”

— Lacy Lassalle

Helping you feel better every time

In a quiet, relaxed practice

Healing you from the root

Our female bodies are complex, and something like a pill doesn’t holistically respect that. Using modern technology to first diagnose things correctly, we’re here to treat the roots of the menopause symptoms you experience—so you find genuine relief for both your body and mind.

Keeping it simple & gentle

While we’re certainly not “standard” when it comes to treatments, to us, we believe we’re keeping it more simple. We listen to you, seek to understand your full picture, then guide you towards small, clear steps—for a journey towards your ideal health that you can nurture over time.

Integrating natural treatments

Using 5 branches of Chinese Medicine, we bring together a range of natural treatments that go beyond standard acupuncture. By integrating herbs, the right nutrition, mindfulness, and healthy movement, your health will receive wholesome support that ripples into every aspect of your life.

  • “I am able to do more of the usual things I used to do before.”

  • “My sleep and energy has improved, my headaches are few and far between”

    “Dr. Shawne helped me understand the connection between my unbalanced hormones, my headaches, and my daily habits. After a few months of working with Dr. Shawne. I’m feeling immensely better. My sleep and energy has improved, my headaches are few and far between, and my hot flashes come way less frequently.”

    — Tonya L

  • “These services are an essential part of my health care routine.”

    “The office is beautiful and comfortable. The staff members are friendly and knowledgeable. I’ve had multiple services: acupuncture, cupping, Gua Sha and massage therapy. These services are an essential part of my health care routine.”
