Shelley is an acupuncturist who grew up in the Wisconsin countryside and then moved to California for 20 years to experience a different side of life. Now, burned out on cities, missing nature and her family who have lived in Hendersonville, NC for 20 years, she has put down new roots here in Mills River. She loves hiking and woods, weather and fresh air, kind-hearted people, and just generally being a creative person.
Shelley earned a Masters Degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine (MATCM) with honors from Yo San University in Los Angeles, California, studied in Chinese hospitals, and had her own bustling private practice in Santa Monica, CA for 10 years. She has studied dance, voice, yoga, qi gong, meditation and Human Design more than most and these all inform her treatments. She specializes in healing long-term chronic auto-immune illness and also loves helping people calm and rebalance from stress, get rid of physical and digestive pain, and doing facial rejuvenation acupuncture to help bring back more youthful beauty to faces without using harmful products or injections.
If you need to just relax, feel and look better, or if American modern medicine isn't working for you, Shelley says it's highly likely that acupuncture and TCM have a safe, graceful and effective solution for you. She sees miracles with this medicine weekly. She's given thousands of treatments to all kinds of people in all walks of life. She is a fan of humans and she looks forward to helping you!
