I offer two tracks for healing: naturopathic medicine is available via telemedicine platform. In-person bodywork and acupuncture appointments are available on a seasonal basis to patients who have established naturopathic care with me, existing patients, and via special arrangement through introductory calls..

As a practitioner of hands-on bodywork and acupuncture,

I see the body as physical narrative. We know from the experience of living in our own bodies that there is no separation between how we experience stress, how we hold our bodies and how we relate to the stories of our lives. Research on fascia, the body’s connective tissue, is finally validating the depth of intelligence we intuitively know our bodies hold. 

In the clinic, I use a connective anatomy approach to arrive at your diagnosis and treatment. Connective anatomy allows us to address multiple related tissues and body systems that may be involved in your pain pattern. Each treatment session includes a combination of bodywork and acupuncture techniques, the proportions of which are determined based on patient preference and what will work best to address your condition. 

Techniques include

  • ACUPUNCTURE — precise work applied to the meridians to restore balance, flow, + vitality

  • CUPPING — traditional therapy to relieve stagnation + pain

  • MYOFASCIAL RELEASE — slow sustained massage techniques to relieve tension + restrictions in the connective tissue + muscles

  • VISCERAL MANIPULATION — gentle therapeutic work for the abdomen + digestion

  • ACTIVE ISOLATED STRETCHING — assisted stretching for improved movement + athletics

  • CRANIAL SACRAL THERAPY — soothing osteopathic techniques for realigning the body + nervous system

  • MOXIBUSTION — warming therapies applied to the meridians to boost energy + support healing

Your first step towards getting started is scheduling a complimentary introductory conversation.

 
Dr. Hamilton is a body wizard! She understands how the body works and has a very deep understanding of human anatomy to treat chronic pain. I have been living with chronic shoulder pain and GERD for years. Finding out the two could be related was mind blowing to me. I couldn’t recommend her more if you have chronic pain and want to find relief and feel better.
