🌱Welcome to Wholeness Acupuncture Center 🌱 Dr. Samantha Prashad, DACM, L.Ac completed her Bachelor’s degree at Cornell University in 2017. As a premedical student she realized that the Western Medical model did not always get to the root cause of disease. She then decided to pursue a Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine at The American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco, and graduated in 2020. After spending time on the West coast learning from some of the most skilled Eastern practitioners she ventured back to the East Coast to begin practicing.
She loves to use five element analysis to hone in on energetic, psycho-emotional and physiological imbalances in the body. She uses gentle needling techniques that are even tame enough for infants. Dr. Prashad combines Traditional Chinese Medicine with functional medicine to deliver individualized treatments. She helps to assess underlying nervous system stressors on a deep energetic level.
She uses biofield testing to determine what specific homeopathics, vitamins, minerals or herbs may be necessary to help patients reverse even the most debilitating conditions. Her approach uses whole food nutrition supplementation to help retrain the cells of the body to function more optimally in combination with acupuncture to address other imbalances focusing on a full mind, body and spirit integration to care.
In between her busy schedule she enjoys spending time either at the beach or on the mountain snowboarding with her lovely fiance Jeremy. She is compassionate and loves helping patients in as many ways as she can. She enjoys working on complex cases like Lyme Disease, Fertility Complications, ADHD, Cancer, and Autoimmune conditions.
