What we treat

Care shaped around your body, not a checklist.

Every treatment combines acupuncture with herbal medicine chosen for you. These are the areas patients most often come to Olivia for.

Most sought

Women's health and fertility

Cycle regulation, fertility support, and care through every stage. Olivia's depth in this area is what brings many patients to her door, often by referral.

Acupuncture + tailored herbal formulas

Pain and injury

Back, neck, joints, and the tension that builds over years. Relief that addresses the cause, not just the ache.

Migraines and headaches

Fewer episodes, gentler ones. A calmer nervous system over time rather than another pill.

Allergies and immunity

Seasonal relief and a stronger baseline, so your body meets the year more easily.

Integrative support

Gentle, coordinated care alongside conventional treatment, including support during cancer therapy.
