M'illumino Natural Medicine + Microneedling PDX

Chinese and East Asian medicines are guides for healthy aging, hormone health, and especially the thresholds of perimenopause and menopause. We all deserve access to this wisdom. Tried and true traditional medicines over trends, please 🩵

Histamine is a neurotransmitter and it can play a part in so much more beyond seasonal allergies and skin rashes. I’m excited that there is more conversation around it in the context of women’s health, perimenopause, PMS, and PMDD.

Hey! Thanks for stopping by! ❤️

I’m Sara, I’m an acupuncturist and Chinese medicine practitioner in beautiful SE Portland and I’ve been working with patients for the past 15 years. My calling is to help people understand their bodies through the wise lens of traditional medicine, and help them apply it to their modern lives so that they feel better in their bodies. I offer acupuncture, herbal medicine, microneedling, cupping, guasha, and nutrition and lifestyle guidance tailored towards individuals. I love spreading this invaluable wisdom, so follow me because I want to share it with you!

I love working with women and people going through hormone transitions and challenges like perimenopause, menopause, difficult periods and PMS, and PMDD. I have extensive training in this area through a variety of lenses in addition to my own personal journey ❤️

Im addition to my Masters degree in Chinese medicine and acupuncture, my background includes a thorough education in Hakomi somatic psychotherapy, whole foods nutrition, Classical Chinese herbalism, advanced acupuncture for treating chronic and degenerative diseases, cosmetic acupuncture, and professional microneedling.

I have so much to share and chat about - let’s talk!

Chinese medicine offers a more satisfying understanding for what is happening during the perimenopause and menopause transitions than simply “hormonal decline.”

Come see us in SE Portland for acupuncture, custom herbal recommendations, and also microneedling. We love working with women’s health from hormone imbalance to painful periods to fertility challenges to perimenopause and menopause.
