Kristin is a Los Angeles-based acupuncturist with over 10 years of experience in the wellness industry. She is licensed by the California Acupuncture Board in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, with additional training in yoga, Reiki, and QiGong. Additionally she has a background in Western Medicine and sciences, which she uses to create well-rounded treatment plans that are both intuitive and evidence based. She enjoys helping patients soothe their physical and emotional pain and helping them unravel complex health concerns layer by layer. She prides herself on providing truly holistic care.
Before becoming an acupuncturist, I spent over a decade working as a pharmacist. That experience shaped the way I practice today. I value both precision and deep listening, and I was drawn to Chinese Medicine by its ability to address patterns that often go unseen in conventional care. My work is rooted in the belief that healing happens best when we support the body as an integrated whole.
I earned a B.S. in Microbiology from the University of Washington, a PharmD from Washington State University, a Master’s in Traditional Oriental Medicine from Emperor’s College, and a Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine from Yo San University. I incorporate Korean balancing method, Four Needle Technique, Master Tung, fascia-based cosmetic acupuncture, nervous system modulation, vibracoustics, and various energy-based and somatic modalities to support patients with reproductive health concerns, stress, pain, recovery, and overall wellbeing.
