Maegan utilizes herbs & acupuncture to address acute and chronic conditions – from colds and flus to Lyme disease and autoimmune conditions. She is skilled in supporting individuals with issues with digestion, circulation, women’s health, allergies, chronic pain and beyond. She seeks to address all aspects of the individual, and particularly enjoys educating others about lifestyle choices that impact our health, and working with patients within the mental-emotional realm. Maegan also places heavy emphasis on herbal remedies, as she believes the condition of modern life leaves most patients in a depleted state requiring supplementation and nourishment.
