Meet Rachel:

Acupuncturist / 500HR ERYT- Yoga Teacher

 

Rachel encountered this medicine path on a quest to avoid shoulder surgery, one that took her to India and China on an exploration of healing modalities. Her recovery through Acupuncture & Herbs inspired her to begin looking more deeply into the vast expanse of Traditional East Asian Medicine. With a particular curiosity toward afflictions that Western medicine finds easy to diagnose but difficult to resolve, and an eye toward how we might prevent such limitations from developing in the first place.

 

Rachel loves nourishing her soul via adventures with nature, culture, and the alchemy of amazing food, and incorporates inspiration from each into her practice and teaching, with 5 Element Theory, and Qigong that she learned in the Wudang mountains. By deepening connections to the lineages she has and continues to study with. Through her love of the science of Herbology, and by incorporating the medicinal properties of foods into lifestyle/dietary advice for patients, to support them in living their most radiant lives.

 

Rachel’s Yoga Journey began at age 17, in Kalamazoo MI, keeping her grounded through her undergrad years. Her journey continued in Chicago, practicing in the Ashtanga and Iyengar lineages. She has been teaching for 11 years, guiding awareness inward to where our true power, as well as our connection to the highest versions of ourselves, reside.
