My name is Michelle Cho, and I am a licensed acupuncture practitioner. The patient’s comfort is top priority to me, so I always make sure to inform them on what I’m doing and make sure they’re feeling comfortable at all times. I specialize in treating muscular and skeletal pain, and anxiety/stress through serotonin production. A fun fact about me is that I have two lovely daughters that I love to spend all my free time with!
Whilst studying Shiatsu massage in the early 90’s in Santa Monica, I became fascinated with the theory behind Eastern medicine. It wasn’t until many years later that both my life and inner guidance began insisting that I return to my healing studies and more pointedly acupuncture.
At this time, I had gone through a period of 14 months where I had experienced 5 major deaths in my life, and my body began physically reacting in ways I could not have predicted. I was scared and did not understand what was happening to me, and neither did my allopathic doctors. I honestly thought I was dying.
Re-discovering acupuncture at this point in my life was a godsend! Acupuncture allowed me to understand not only what was going on in with me, but gave we a way back to feeling at home in my body once again.
The human body is a miraculous system that above all else seeks to balance itself, to find a way back from disharmony. I see acupuncture as a way of speaking to the body, so that it may do what it has always been designed to do…Thrive.I am forever grateful for this medicine, and I wholeheartedly invite you to begin your journey of natural healing!
