The Philosophy
All aspects of the mind, body, and environment are part of an intricate fabric—they are interconnected, interdependent, and in constant flux. This practice offers a locus where we can meet and collaborate. Together we will tune in, listen, observe, and create a treatment plan to guide the body to health.
Nora offers her years of training, clinical experience, research, and humor, crafting individualized healthcare featuring acupuncture, herbal formulas, supplement protocols, and food medicine.
Some of her treatment interests include: hormonal imbalances (menstrual irregularities, perimenopause, fertility support, and post-pill syndrome), psycho-emotional disorders, chronic pain, insomnia, and psychedelic integration.
