Please call Stephanie at 303-731-6142 for a free 10 min. phone consultation.
Stephanie has been happily practicing acupuncture in Boulder since 1998. Her practice has been centered primarily on seeing private clients but has also included providing treatments for patients at Helios Health Center, Longmont United Hospital's Health Center for Integrative Therapies and Frasier Meadows Manor's Wellness Center. In 2008, Stephanie also completed a degree in nursing and has been working at the Children's Hospital Colorado since February 2009.
Motivated by both a love of languages (acupuncture studies and Western medicine each have their own) and a desire to face one's fear (past mistrust of Western medicine), she began to bridge the gap between these two world views of treating the body by continuing her own education in nursing and Chinese medicine and bringing this combined wisdom to her practice.
Specialties:
Sports injuries, stress reduction, immune boosting, pregnancy challenges and fertility enhancement.
Acupuncture is also very beneficial for back, neck and shoulder pain, digestive and sleep disorders, asthma and sinusitis. Children benefit tremendously too and don't usually require needles during treatments.
