Dana is a licensed acupuncturist with a background in integrative counseling. She holds a master’s degree in both Acupuncture and Process-Oriented Psychology. Her treatments draw from Traditional Chinese Medicine while incorporating her training and a decade of practice in Process-Oriented Psychology, an approach that weaves together somatic therapies, Jungian depth psychology, and mindfulness practice. Dana has a special interest and advanced training in nervous system regulation and the ways physical symptoms and emotional experiences intersect. She supports the whole person, offering care that addresses how long-term symptoms, trauma, or everyday aches and pains—can live in the body. Dana also brings in her many years of managing organic farms in Detroit, working with healing plants, food-based medicine, and seasonal rhythms to her practice. She strives to meet each patient with presence and respect, and offers a calm and grounded space where people can reconnect with themselves, restore balance, and find sight and relief in a way that feels personal and supportive.
Acupuncture stimulates peripheral nerves in the skin, which relay messages to the brain, creating a cascade of physiological effects such as the blocking of pain receptors and the increased release of neurotransmitters such as beta-endorphins, met-enkephalin and serotonin, all of which are effective in blocking pain, decreasing stress and improving immune function. Our custom acupuncture treatments are designed to restore health and correct the underlying imbalances that are keeping you from living your best life. We design each session to address your individual needs. AS NEEDED, YOUR SESSION INCLUDES: - Acupuncture - Cupping - Electro-Stimulation - Diet Recommendations - Herbal + Supplement Recommendations
