Amy Lor, LAc, EAMP., Dipl. O.M., graduated from Bastyr University, a regionally accredited, globally respected institution of natural health arts and sciences, with a Master’s degree in Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. She was drawn to medicine through her own health challenges.

Her very first health problem that she sought acupuncture treatment for was low back pain. She had severe low back pain during pregnancy. With two treatments her low back pain resolved and never came back throughout her pregnancy.

She have used Chinese medicine to effectively treat many health concerns. Some of those conditions include pain, gastro-intestinal conditions (IBS, constipation, diarrhea, gas, bloating, etc.), women’s health (menstrual irregularities, menopause, infertility, etc.), skin conditions (eczema, rashes, psoriasis, itchiness), stress, anxiety, depression, fatigue, low immune system, addictions, and so much more.

In addition to her acupuncture and herbal knowledge, she’s also able to educate her patients through nutritional and lifestyle recommendations to produce longer lasting health and better wellness. She knows that everyone has their own struggles and that everyone is at a different path in their lives therefore, her assessment and treatment is individualized to her patient’s unique experiences and concerns.

About Dr. Amsu El
I’m Dr. Amsu El. I help people feel better in their bodies, think more clearly, and make changes that last.
My approach is simple and rigorous. I listen deeply, find the real pattern, and act with precision. I build plans case by case using electrical acupuncture, non-invasive bio-electrical therapy, breathwork, herbs, and practical lifestyle design. No templates. Your care is designed for you.

I was shaped by family, community, and wise Jegna's who insisted on integrity and results. Losing my sister young showed me what happens when care chases symptoms instead of terrain. In my clinic we intervene early, before a molehill becomes a mountain, and we pair nature with science so progress is real and measurable.

Sometimes the right move is acupuncture or targeted electrical work. Sometimes it is sunlight, grounding, target journaling, or speaking the truth your body has been holding. Each tool has a time. The person determines the method.

I am here to reflect who you are, lighten the load you are carrying, and help you align with your internal compass, the most reliable healer you have. If that resonates, we can work.
