About Me
Hello, I’m Claire, a student acupuncturist originally from China, trained through a comprehensive Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) program. My practice integrates evidence-informed care with the wisdom of classical Chinese medicine. I focus on safe, comfortable, and effective treatments that balance both root causes and present symptoms to support whole-body wellness.
I currently offer acupressure massage, cupping, and gua sha. Acupuncture and additional modalities will be available as my licensing progresses.
Areas of Focus
Pain management (neck, shoulders, back, joints)
Stress, anxiety, and sleep support
Digestive health and metabolism
Women’s health & hormonal balance
Meridian balancing & overall wellness maintenance
My Treatment Approach
Every session begins with a full TCM assessment using the Four Diagnostic Methods: observation, listening/smelling, inquiry, and pulse/tongue evaluation.
I create personalized treatment plans based on each patient’s unique presentation, using high-quality tools such as:
Brass meridian brushes
Natural horn tools
Skin-friendly massage oils
Electro-stimulation device (when applicable)
Treatments may integrate: Cupping • Gua Sha • Acupressure/Tuina massage • Meridian therapy along with simple lifestyle guidance inspired by both Eastern and Western wellness principles.
My goal is to help patients achieve long-term, natural improvement through gentle, precise, and holistic care.
Philosophy
Health begins with harmony—of body, mind, and energy. Through attentive care, professional techniques, and a patient-centered approach, I hope to support every individual on their path toward balance, recovery, and improved well-being.

Lacey Park
Lacey Park is a student acupuncturist and writer with a deep devotion to women’s health, natural rejuvenation, and the kind of vitality that shows up both on your face and in your nervous system.
Lacey blends Traditional Chinese Medicine with a grounded, rural way of living, offering care that feels gentle, intuitive, and deeply human. Her work is rooted in the belief that looking our best is inseparable from feeling our best, and that true rejuvenation comes from supporting the body internally, not chasing surface fixes.
Lacey has a special interest in natural anti-aging and facial rejuvenation, hormonal balance, PMS, perimenopause, and the quiet, persistent symptoms women are often told to “just live with.” She approaches care through the lens of TCM, supporting circulation, nourishment, stress regulation, and long term vitality so the body can do what it’s designed to do, restore itself.
As a student practitioner, Lacey openly shares her learning journey, insights, and reflections through her blog and social platforms, making Chinese medicine feel accessible, practical, and relevant to modern women’s lives. Her style of care emphasizes listening deeply, working seasonally, and helping women reconnect with their bodies in a way that feels safe and empowering.
You can follow her work, reflections, and clinic updates at Atlantic Women’s Wellness Blog or @atlanticwomenswellness.
