Health Professionals near Malden, MA

Struggling with confusion around what to eat to manage your IBD symptoms? Has this led to a limited diet, weight loss, and/or fatigue? I help my clients implement a highly personalized nutrition plan that brings clarity around which foods to add that may be beneficial, reduces fear and anxiety around eating, reduces inflammation, and ultimately helps them to get their lives back. We can work together to help you live your best life, starting right now.

What if I told you that you can break out of yo-yo dieting and finally accept your body? Are you consumed by a voice trying to convince you otherwise? It's time to stand up to this inner critic and finally make peace with food and your body. You deserve to live a fuller life, that isn't centered around trying to make yourself smaller. Having someone to guide and support you on this journey can help get you where you want (and deserve!) to go. I promise, you are capable and worthy of reaching your goals. We all are!

I came into the practice of Chinese Medicine as a patient twenty seven years ago. Receiving acupuncture for the first time was an experience of both welcome relief from pain mixed with a sense of deep relaxation. It is from that experience that I view each patient. With a background in education, I work on treatment plans that give individual focus to patient issues as well as use techniques that can accomplish a treatment goal quickly. Treatment styles include needles, laser, cupping, and non-insertive methods as required. Each patient gets gentle care and is provided with tools and techniques to help maintain good health.

Michelle was a licensed Occupational therapist(OT) in Taiwan, where she provided occupational therapy services for a 50-bed, specialized chronic-care hospital, Taipei Guandu Hospital, assessed patients' rehabilitative needs, jointly developed patient care plans and treatment goals, and conducted occupational-prescribed OT programs for medically complex patients including those who have had strokes, spinal cord injuries, hand injuries (fracture, soft tissue such as Tennis Elbows, to nerve neuropathies such as Cubital Tunnel Syndrome/ Carpal Tunnel Syndrome).

I believe that full recovery from eating disorders is possible. I also believe that everyone deserves to have a relationship with food that feels truly joyful and nourishing. If you are struggling with an eating disorder, or if you feel stuck in a restrictive diet cycle and would like to heal your relationship with food, I am here to help.

I am a licensed acupuncturist with over 22 years of experience in private practice. I am dedicated to bringing acupuncture and Oriental Medicine to as many people as possible. My patients are of all ages - from elementary school children to wise elders. My practice falls into 3 categories - family care, pregnancy care and senior care. I have specialized in fertility, pregnancy, and labor & delivery and postpartum care for over 16 years and have helped many women get pregnant, stay pregnant, and have healthy pregnancies, deliveries, and post-partum. I often work in conjunction with doulas, midwives, and childbirth educators.

I use the simple tenets of acupuncture to increase circulation, decrease inflammation and calm the nervous system. That takes care of physical pain and stress which can upset digestion, sleep and even a woman's cycle. This helps patients by teaching their bodies how to help themselves.

Robert has expertise in both traditional acupuncture and Japanese non-insertive styles. Non-insertive styles are especially gentle methods that re-balance the body without breaking the skin. Appropriate for all patients, non-insertive techniques are particularly effective for children and older patients, those weakened by chronic conditions, and of course a wonderful option for patients uncomfortable with needles.

I am a Registered Dietitian with over 10 years of experience in clinical nutrition. I provide evidence based and practical nutrition therapy to clients with Diabetes, Heart problems, GI conditions – IBS, Chron’s disease, Ulcerative colitis , gastroparesis and pre and post partum pregnancy. Being of Indian origin I have special expertise in tailoring nutrition interventions for the typical South Asian diet. I also specialize in interventions to suit vegan and vegetarian diets. My goal is to help my clients achieve their goals without compromising on the pleasures of food.

At Tai Chi Acupuncture & Wellness Center our goal is to create healthier and happier people by providing quality care and alternative healing therapies to those in need. While there will always be a place for Western Medicine, we take a different approach to health and wellness. Our programs, classes and treatments focus on bringing balance to mind, body, and spirit. Our bodies are amazing vehicles, and we are just beginning to understand their full capacities. Our intention is to teach others that the path to a happy and healthy life lies within each and every one of us.

Are you looking to navigate the balance between wellness, nutrition, and your life? Overwhelmed by the many sources of diet and nutrition information available? Struggling with your weight, eating patterns or body image? I combine the science of nutrition, motivational counseling, intuitive & mindful eating techniques, and cognitive behavioral therapy to engage my clients on their journey to establish balance and health. If you're feeling limited by food choices, want to prevent future ailments or improve current struggles, or are looking to improve your relationship with food and your body, you are entitled to re-establishing patterns for health.

I am a registered, licensed, insurance accepting, psych-specialist nutritionist with over 20 years experience. Referrals and inquiries accepted for nutritional concerns including: eating disorders, weight control issues for all ages, Alzheimers, diabetes, digestive disorders, and other medical concerns. I offer assistance with 12 step recovery programs, medication induced weight gain, complex issues involving: nutrition and pregnancy, breast feeding, cholesterol, blood pressure, heart related issues, and vegetarian nutrition. I also specialize in co-occurring mental illness and eating disorders or other medical issues. I have experience in geriatric and childhood psychiatric nutrition.

My ideal patient is one who is willing to be a co creator in their health process. I specialize in digestive disorders, immune issues, pain, hormonal issues and fatigue. I treat all ages. I use acupuncture, Chinese herbs, Ayurvedic dietary and lifestyle recommendations and muscle response testing to identify core imbalances as well as herbal and nutritional recommendations. Your willingness to make lifestyle and dietary changes that help improve health and your symptoms is a big plus.

I'm particularly good at educating my patients, about their current health conditions, and about treatment and prevention. I came into medicine strongly influenced by the women's self-care movement of the '70; I believe health care can be about giving people control over their bodies and their lives. While homeopathy is only one of the modalities I use, the skills needed to be a good homeopath, deeply understanding a patient, serve me (and my patients) well in whatever form of treatment we choose.

Frustrated trying to lose weight? Feeling tired, confused, overwhelmed, brain fog or want to get off medications? Need to lower your blood sugar/pressure/cholesterol? Hungry all the time? Unsure of your food choices? Do you want to feel better in your clothes? Are you suffering from GI distress? Do you want to be healthier? These are some of the reasons clients work with me.

I work with clients who are struggling with their relationship with food and want to make peace with food, clients who feel stressed when making decision about food, clients who feel their diet could be improved to enhance quality of life or athletic performance, and clients who question if their food choices are optimal for their personal needs.

Are you looking to create a balanced and realistic relationship with food and body image? Perhaps you are wanting to heal your body, mind, and spirit from disordered eating and exercise patterns?

I am a Registered Dietitian focused on applying integrative and functional nutrition models, which examine the root cause of issues rather than just addressing the symptoms. I love to help people feel their best and have a special interest in GI health and mental health (depression & anxiety). I strive to motivate individuals on their health journey and enjoy facilitating an understanding and practical application of nutrition science.

Does food feel like more of an enemy than a friend? Are you confused and stressed about what to eat, when to eat, how much to eat? Do you fear foods, obsess over calories and labels, or worry about how foods affect your appearance? You are not alone.
