Heidi began her career in acupuncture in 2015 following the four-year pursuit of a Masters in Chinese Medicine which included a clinic internship requirement of 918 treatments. Heidi has also studied meditation and intuitive energy work allowing her to tune into the core of a person’s healing journey and see them on a deep level. Heidi is adept at supporting patients emotionally and spiritually as they deal with challenges and transitions including the fertility journey. “I see myself as a guide to empower people not only in their health but also their lives, enabling them to move forward.”

About Me

Prior to studying acupuncture, I owned a custom fragrance and aromatherapy “feel good” shop called Body Chemistri. I am now continuing the mission of healing and self care through the beauty and integrity of ancient medicine.

Testimonials

“Recently I had acupuncture done. Heidi helped me out in ways I didn’t even think possible. She’s a natural empath with a keen sense of physiology. I was experiencing knee pain and immediately after my session I felt a difference. We had a brief consultation before the needle application about what was happening in my mental and emotional life. I felt instantly vulnerable and open with her. I can feel the quiet wisdom she carries and I’m so glad to have had experienced it. My body and mind thank her!.”

As someone with stage four endometriosis, I started acupuncture while trying to get pregnant with my first child. After five egg retrievals and three failed rounds of IVF, I came to Heidi for treatment before undergoing my final embryo transfer. I started acupuncture in advance of my transfer to support blood flow and overall wellness. My life was forever changed when a couple weeks later after years of trying I confirmed that I was pregnant with my daughter. Then at about five months post-partum after having my daughter, I decided that I would like to start to focus my acupuncture on helping to prepare for what I thought would be another round of IVF for a second child. I never made it to that next round of IVF, because after a couple weeks of working with Heidi I was pregnant AGAIN for the second time totally naturally. I credit acupuncture with helping my mind and body be in a healthy place to support the embryo transfer and ultimately two healthy pregnancies.

“…my acupuncturist Heidi is one of the best practitioners I have encountered in my 20+ years of receiving acupuncture. Her openness and honesty are greatly appreciated, she is a wealth of knowledge and shares it to whomever is open. She really understands energetics and helps you get to core issues… Honestly, I could gush about her for a while but just give her a call instead and experience the shift.”
