From Natalie
I grew up on Bainbridge Island, and am thrilled to be retur ning home with my husband and daughter in tow! After practicing in both Seattle and Nashville for the last decade, it feels wonderful to be moving back to my roots.
I was introduced to Chinese Medicine as a teenager when I was often sick and missing school. Wanting to find solutions, my parents tur ned to their acupuncturist, Bajda Welty, whose treatments, herbal medicine, and nutritional guidance brought me back to a healthy state. This experience had a huge impact on me and not only showed me the power of Chinese Medicine, but gave me confidence in the body’s ability to heal itself.
I am passionate about providing a space where my patients feel heard and safe to pursue their health goals. I believe that the feeling of being cared for and seen paves the way for actual healing to happen.
I also have extensive training in fertility enhancement, prenatal care, and women’s health, and have studied with inter nationally known experts such as Jane Lyttleton, Debra Betts, and Claudia Citkovitz.
I can’t wait to continue the high level care you’ve come to expect at Fire Dragon Acupuncture.
