As dedicated health practitioners, we wholeheartedly believe that your health is your most precious resource and most valuable asset. Without good health, your quality of life is diminished and it’s hard to feel content. Approaching wellness from an integrative, holistic manner, we strive to eliminate the causes of disease and illness while promoting wellness education.

Combining the efforts of general practitioners with nutritional experts, functional medicine associates, and others, our staff works to improve the body/mind/spirit connection to help elevate wellness levels throughout the entire body.

From chiropractic treatments and acupuncture to IPT cancer therapy, we work in partnership with the patients themselves, allowing them to take ownership in their own treatment plan while learning more about the integrative nature of the human body. Our focus is to treat the underlying cause of disease and illness, alleviating symptoms and pain through holistic healing.

Here at the Gentle Wellness Center, we are driven by a mission to empower consumers and practitioners both through education, training, and research. We are here to assist each patient on their journey to optimal wellness.

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.

My mission is to relieve suffering in my patients and assist them in transcending illness while living optimally without the use of pharmaceuticals or unnecessary surgery. Formerly a nurse, I am licensed by the state of Florida as an acupuncture physician in the greater Oldsmar area.

If you've been wanting to try acupuncture but are squeamish around needles, then Japanese acupuncture is a great way to start. The Japanese variety utilizes finer needles - barely thicker than a human hair. Instead of relying on a chart, more emphasis is placed on touch and palpation to find the correct insertion points. We also do front and back treatments to promote balance of the whole body. I understand the importance of spending extra time with my patients so that we all receive the love and care we deserve.
We are here to aid in your healing process through: Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine, Moxibustion, Massage therapy, Fire cupping, Nutritional advice, and Reiki.
