About Acupuncture Healthcare

Sarah Halverstadt, M.S., L.Ac., Dipl. OM is a California state and national licensed practitioner of Traditional Chinese Medicine. She completed her graduate degree at the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Her general practice includes acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, cupping, nutritional counseling and moxibustion.

My passion is preventative medicine (aka, health care), so naturally my focus is educating patients about their bodies and inspiring them to develop skills for assessing their own health. Mostly I like to take the fear out of “being healthy” and “living a balance life” by suggesting an experiment here and there. So often we put too much weight on being perfect or operating from an all-or-nothing paradigm that leads to feelings of failure, frustration and disconnection from our bodies (think dieting). The outcome is a hardening resistance to change and healing.

The juiciness of living returns when we begin to experiment with ourselves and enjoy the process of seeing what engenders health in our bodies and our lives.
