Elizabeth Stephenson, AP, LMT

Help Your Body Heal Itself with Acupuncture!
Hi…. I’m Dr Elizabeth Stephenson. I am an acupuncture physician in Daytona Beach, Florida. It is my belief that our bodies are designed to heal themselves. Most of the time the body does this job perfectly. For example, if you cut yourself, you can just put a bandage on the wound and it will heal. You have a team of inner resources that flows with your blood to areas of the body that need attention. Red blood cells carry oxygen to nourish our tissues at the cellular level. White blood cells and platelets are always ready to respond to assaults from the environment. Other members of the team include the neurotransmitters, endorphins and hormones that keep your body healthy, balanced and vibrant. This all goes on behind the scenes, with little thought or attention from the consciousness that is in ownership of the body. As a practitioner of Chinese Medicine, I have found that the further people live from the natural life, the more likely the body will be unhealthy. Florescent lighting, processed foods, sedentary lifestyles, and the stresses of our modern society all take their toll on our nervous systems. Sometimes our energy circuits get blocked, causing our organs to have difficulty in communicating with each other. This is when the body needs acupuncture, herbs or massage to restore health. An acupuncture physician is a lot like an electrician. We insert tiny sterile needles into precise points to encourage the body’s healing resources to enter the targeted area. This opens up new pathways for the healing energy of the body to travel… a new way for your body to actually heal itself.

Acupuncture, Asian Medicine & Herbology
Jennifer received her training at highly-esteemed Five Branches University in Santa Cruz, California. While there, she received over 3,200 hours of rigorous and intensive training in both Asian and Western medicine while earning her master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine. She is nationally board certified in Oriental Medicine, Acupuncture, Chinese Herbology, and Western Biomedicine by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM). She is licensed in North Carolina as well as in California as a primary care provider. One of Jennifer’s greatest attributes as an Asian medicine practitioner is her ability to function as a partner in wellness. She strongly believes in the innate wholeness of each individual and the intrinsic healing capacity that lies within all of us. She has a genuine desire to see every patient fulfill his or her highest potential in life, and enjoys being a part of each patient’s individual journey. Jennifer utilizes many techniques during her treatments, including acupuncture, yin tui na, gua sha, moxibustion, and cupping. In addition, an herbal formula may be prescribed and/or appropriate supplements may be recommended. Additionally, Jennifer has specialized training in Five Element acupuncture – a unique system of diagnosis and treatment that excels in addressing imbalances and blockages at the mental, emotional, and spiritual levels. She finds this type of work especially rewarding, as these types of imbalances can often be the underlying root cause of many ailments that manifest physically.
Harvey Kaltsas, AP, DOM, DIM, Dipl. Ac. (NCCAOM)
Acupuncturist
Sarasota, FL 34231
35 Years of Experience
Over the past 35 years, I have successfully treated thousands of patients with many, many different types of illness: to name a few - strains, sprains, back problems, knee and shoulder ailments, carpal tunnel syndrome, impotency, drug, alcohol, and nicotine addictions, hypertension, heart disease, and even cancer. In fact, I have close working relationships with some of the best oncologists in the world. Most importantly, I don't hesitate to refer to other MD, osteopathic, and chiropractic physicians when appropriate and necessary. To get my patients well, I use Chinese and Japanese style acupuncture, auricular therapy, drug detox protocols, sotai exercises, Chinese herbal remedies, and/or functional nutritional medicine. I am quite familiar with the following approaches to acupuncture and the practice of traditional Chinese medicine: Five Element, Manaka, Dr. So’s, TCM, and Toyohari style treatments. I am also well versed in German electro-acupuncture diagnostic techniques (and their limitations). Ultimately, patients are responsible for their own health, and I serve to assist them to regain their health and to stay healthy. I educate patients as to the seven pillars of health: 1) good nutrition, 2) clean air, 3) pure water, 4) clear light (and this encompasses exposure to electro-magnetic fields), 5) adequate exercise, 6) enough rest, and 7) peace of mind. I have written numerous articles on health related subjects, was Contributing Editor of Alternative Medicine magazine, and have done pioneering research on the prevention, causes, and treatment of cancer and heart disease.

Acupuncturist
New Paltz, NY 12561
Expert Integral Healthcare for All Ages.
The goal of my practice is to bring more health, wholeness, comfort, and joy into the lives of those it touches. It is also a clearinghouse of health related information and a support to those in need of change. My personal mission is to heal, support, and co-create health, playfulness, and cooperation in individuals, our community, and the world. My personal philosophy of medicine is that everyone is a mysterious and wonderful being. As such, discovering the basis of a person’s condition and their personal path to wellness requires a thorough and careful evaluation. While some ailments may be common, the actual cause of the condition, and the path to healing may be different for every individual. That is why one of my goals has been to develop an understanding of and experience with many approaches to health, illness, and treatment, and to know how and when each approach will be most successful. For many, the cause of disease is a disconnection from their potential. In order to heal, people often need to find connection with life, find meaning, and realize that they can make a difference. These people must undergo a process of self-discovery. Learning what foods or activities their body likes, what their personal goals and preferences are, what brings meaning to their lives, and how their relationship to the people and places in their environment effects them are all important aspects of that process.

Boca Raton, FL 33433
Acupuncture Physician, in Practice Since 1980's
I have an eclectic practice, using Acupuncture and massage techniques, which are determined, specifically for each person, individually. I have been able to help people who are in pain, who have had injuries, or have headaches, problems with their hearing, ear infections, people who can't sleep, who have digestive problems to even depression and for those who just need help with chronic problems. I also work with my husband, Doug Tessler, who offers live healing music; Together, we offer Qi Gong workshops and help people, in groups and "One on One". I look at each person's diet and their surroundings. I usually go to people's homes, as I work with the "Alpha-Stim", which helps your own body, produce extra encephalons and endorphins, which can change your body chemistry, significantly. ~ Because of this change, I feel that people, after a treatment, should be able to relax and not have to drive anywhere, afterwards. So, I come to you. Tho, I do also practice, out of a few offices, and can offer an office location, as well, to patients. I especially like helping the elderly. I have worked with people who have Parkinsons and have helped reduce their shaking. I've worked with people, with health challenges ranging from back pain, to depression and insomnia, to even just foot pain, like plantar fascitis. I have also helped women with menopausal symptoms thru acupuncture. Also, due to the FOUR things, that United Health Care, will now pay for - I would like to share their list for comedic relief ~ As, United Health Care's list, only covers these four things ~ Yes, it is quite funny and almost entertaining .. to share, that United Health Care Insurance, will now cover and accept, and pay Acupuncture Physicians to treat only 4 things ! and the envelope - please ; Unfortunately - this may seem - like material, for a stand up comedy routine - But for now - this is the new 2021 Info - - Most importantly, United Health Care will NOW - pay for NOT only post surgical pain, - due to Dental surgery ! ~ BUT - Now, I have to update this as United Health Care will now - also let you call an Acupuncture Physician and cover treatment, for Low Back pain ! Tho, I will assure you, that Acupuncture has helped many people around the world, for hundreds of years, United Health Care is so far only recognizing the effects that Acupuncture can have on Low Back pain and will NOT cover Acupuncture treatments, for much of any other kind pain, besides dental pain after or due to post surgical pain. However, I will point out, that I have helped a lot of people who have had post surgical pain from Dental surgery, so I will agree that Acupuncture can help and has helped many people with dental pain ! I also have helped people with the other three other things, that United Health Care, is willing to offer to pay Acupuncture, for ; 1 - Nausea and vomiting from post surgery 2 - Nausea and vomiting from pregnancy and 3 - Nausea and vomiting from chemotherapy, ~ I also teach people, about the health benefits of a healthy diet and how to prepare raw foods ~ Plus .... I also teach about Qi Gong & teach people, about How to use essential oils and How to make your water safe to drink, without floride. Please also know that I can help you, find the right supplements and safe products to use for yourself and to use in your home, too !

I, like many patients, was a patient of last resort. Are you a patient of last resort? Why wait? Acupuncture can complement your medical treatment, or provide a treatment when standard medical care doesn't provide you the wellness you seek. In addition to acupuncture I provide custom herbal prescriptions based on Traditional Chinese Medicine formulas; tui na orthopedic massage; moxibustion; and gua sha as needed. I use gentle needling techniques based on the Japanese style, and provide a quiet, private treatment setting. Superbills are available for those with insurance to submit to their insurance companies for reimbursement. Specializing in autoimmune disease, cancer therapy support, anxiety/depression. Available for brief phone consultations to help you decide whether acupuncture and Chinese Medicine will help with your health concern and improve your quality of life. Acupuncture can also be used as preventive wellness care -- the best time to be treated is when you have no complaint at all (four times a year when the seasons change to keep your body at optimum health). Other self care techniques I am trained to help you with: dietary recommendations, sleep hygiene, exercise program regimens. Whether you're dealing with a chronic illness, stress, or just want to stay well, consider seeing me for regular treatments.

If you live in the Tempe – Phoenix area, chances are you’ve found your way to this page because you’re tired of pain, fed up with weight loss, burned out by stress, or are just plain tired of being tired! (d. all of the above?) You’ve come to the right place. I can help. If you’re like most people, you probably don’t know too much about acupuncture treatments, and might have even thought about running away at the thought of needles somewhere on this page. No worries! Even the burliest ex-football player tattooed Marines tend to be nervous about this stuff, but let me be the first to put those fears to rest. Imagine this: a place where you can go that feels as cozy as your living room. You sit down and have a chat – I mean really talk about you: your devotion to your brilliant two-year old, your 3:00 chocolate cravings, that ridiculous knee pain that screams at you during bowling night , and your quest to find out where you left your energy. Mind and body, it’s all you – and it’s all related (you knew you weren’t crazy, right?) That’s the beauty of Chinese medicine. After your chat, you get to have the deepest, most amazing nap, blissfully drifting in a sea of tranquil music and warm heat therapy. If you closed your eyes, you were probably oblivious to those tiny needles that somehow magically rearranged everything in there and made you feel like things were just right in the world again. Seriously. It feels that easy. If you’re tired of conventional treatments (pills, surgery, injections) and conventional wisdom (“you’re getting older,” “it’s just arthritis,” “learn to live with it,”) give health another chance. You deserve it. I’ll try to make sense of it all for you here. I want to get to the core of your health issues and I know you do too. Using acupuncture, acupressure, natural herbal medicine and personal nutrition plans, we can optimize your body’s healing and help you reclaim your energy and well-being.
