Services

Acupuncture

Acupuncture uses fine needles at specific points to balance the body's energy and physiology. This ancient practice addresses chronic pain, stress, and systemic imbalances through individualized treatment plans. Patients often experience improved circulation, reduced inflammation, and enhanced emotional well-being.

Chinese Herbal Medicine

Custom herbal blends combine plant, mineral, and animal-derived ingredients to target specific health goals. Formulas are tailored for digestive issues, hormonal balance, and immune support. This 2,500-year-old pharmacopeia works synergistically with acupuncture to promote lasting wellness through natural remedies.

Sound Healing

Sound healing employs singing bowls, tuning forks, and vocal harmonics to restore cellular resonance. Vibrational frequencies help reduce stress, improve sleep quality, and facilitate emotional release. Sessions create a meditative state that supports nervous system regulation and energetic alignment.

Gut Detox Programs

Science-based detox programs use targeted nutrition and supplements to optimize digestive health. 10-28 day protocols address inflammation, improve nutrient absorption, and support liver function. These programs combine traditional fasting principles with modern nutritional science for systemic cleansing.

Kundalini Yoga

Kundalini yoga integrates breathwork, movement, and meditation to awaken spinal energy. Regular practice enhances physical flexibility, mental clarity, and spiritual connection. Sessions incorporate mantras and mudras to balance energy centers and promote holistic vitality.

My weekly acupuncture sessions with Katia have been highlights of 2022 for me. I found her as I was hoping to address some gastrointestinal concerns and discomfort, and she has been attentive and thorough in working with me to address those concerns and more. In our 6 months of treatment she has not only given me many tools for better health and mindfulness, but been a beacon of positivity and joyful living. Katia exudes the desire to heal and improve the lives of her clients and those around her.

I think of her as an amazing healer but also as a friend, and I am sad to leave her practice as I make a life move to another city. I've already referred one friend and will be referring as many as I can, to spread the good of Jade River Healing Arts.

Katia is very attentive acupuncturist. She takes individual approach, takes time to listen. I am glad to have her on my care team and would recommend her to anyone looking for an acupuncture specialist.

I saw Katia for a health problem that according to a healthcare provider should be surgically removed. I did not want to go in that direction. Katia used herbal supplements, TCM, acupuncture and love. She supported me completely and worked with me in more modalities than I ever dreamed of. I have used acupuncture for 20+ years and this by far was the best treatment I have received. I will never go anywhere else. I not only found an amazing practitioner but also a friend and sista.

I have been going to Katia for over a decade, for issues related to sports injuries, menopause and sleep issues. Katia always takes the time to understand all that is going on with your body at that moment and does a front or back treatment accordingly. Katia is so soothing to be around, that once the needles are in I get the best rest I have had all week!

I decided to try acupuncture for my chronic neck and back issues rather than taking more prescriptions. Katia was very thorough and patient during my first visit when I had many questions. It is surprising how painless the procedure is but if I do feel any discomfort she is understanding and quick to fix it. She also suggested some herbs to use in conjunction with the therapies. By my third visit I could definitely feel an improvement. I highly recommend her practice and the use of acupuncture as a treatment for pain.

Katia has been the perfect fit for me on my healing journey. She is an integral part of the care team I have established to help recover from anxiety, depression, emotional, physical and generational trauma, and surgery. She is knowledgeable across a multitude of disciplines as well as puts her patients healing and care at the front and center of everything she does. I couldn't recommend her more!
