Not Just Symptom Relief—True Root-Cause Medicine
At Embody, we don’t chase symptoms—we work to understand what’s underneath them. Using Traditional East Asian Medicine, we assess your whole system, not just a diagnosis. Through acupuncture, along with a collection of ancient, nature-based tools used to warm, move, and nourish the body, we address the unique patterns of imbalance affecting your energy, sleep, digestion, immunity, and emotional well-being. This is a subtle, powerful medicine that invites your body back into rhythm—clearing stagnation, easing tension, and guiding you toward long-term health from the inside out.
A personalized approach that listens to your whole system.
Acupuncture at Embody isn’t a quick fix or a one-size-fits-all protocol. It’s a grounded, time-tested method of healing that considers your whole story—body, mind, and environment. Instead of masking symptoms, we trace them back to their origin: the energetic, physical, and emotional patterns that keep your system out of balance.
Using the diagnostic framework of Traditional East Asian Medicine—like pulse and tongue analysis, and Five Element theory—we build care plans unique to you. Every session is a chance to recalibrate your system, restore healthy function, and help you feel aligned, energized, and steady in your own skin.
Whether you’re navigating complex chronic symptoms, recovering from illness, or just seeking more consistent vitality, this is care that adapts to you—and grows with you.
The Embody Method Means:
Root-cause, not symptom-chasing.
Support that’s tailored and evolving.
Nature-based tools with ancient wisdom.
Therapeutic calm in a fast-moving world.
Acupuncture isn't just about chasing symptoms—it’s about restoring balance at the root. Using time-tested diagnostic tools, we assess your body’s deeper patterns to guide individualized treatment that supports lasting healing, not just temporary fixes.
Yin & Yang: Restoring Dynamic Balance
Is your system running too hot or too cold? Are you depleted, or stuck in overdrive? Using the lens of Yin and Yang, we identify whether your imbalance stems from excess, deficiency, or misalignment—so treatment can restore what’s needed, and release what’s not.
The Five Elements: Connecting Body, Emotion, and Environment
Traditional diagnosis goes beyond isolated symptoms. Using the Five Element framework—Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water—we trace how your symptoms relate to organ systems, stressors, seasons, and emotional health. A headache might not be just a headache—it could reflect Liver stagnation, digestive heat, or emotional suppression. That’s what makes acupuncture personal and precise.
Tongue and Pulse: Listening to the Body’s Language
Each treatment begins with observation: we read your tongue, feel your pulse, and track subtle cues that point to the body’s inner state. These tools help us uncover patterns like “Qi stagnation,” “Blood deficiency,” or “Damp Heat”—not labels, but clues that guide a more complete path to healing.

“Monica is effective, patient, talented, and centered. I have been seeking her acupuncture and
herbal services for almost 2 years through pregnancy, postpartum, and hormone re-regulation periods. I truly hope I never have to find another acupuncturist again. I couldn't recommend
her more!”
Nicki R.
“Monica is a true healer, and has helped me and my family in a variety of ways over many months. She brings a calm, gentle, intuitive approach to her work that makes it easy to trust her quickly. We appreciate her expertise, ability to adapt to our changing needs, accuracy with treatments, and the beautiful safe space she’s created. A wonderful choice for anyone who may be hesitant about acupuncture, as well as experienced patients. As a mother, I trust her
100% with my children and am so thankful to have her in our lives!”
