Treatment Approach
Modalities and Interventions
The Women's Embodied Acupuncture extends beyond needle insertion. Plant medicine, crystal healing and sound therapy are used as meaningful allies in the healing process alongside the invaluable use of prayer, invocation, vocal toning, energy clearing and blessing.
Extensive Treatment Experience
Modern acupuncture sessions are usually completed in a 45-60 minute window with about 25 minutes of direct patient-provider contact. Women's Embodied Acupuncture reserves 120 minutes for new patients and 90 minute sessions for follow-up care with full provider presence throughout your treatment
Traditional Approaches
Our services are grounded in traditional approaches to health placing particular interest in the energy (Qi), essence and spirit of the patient. Contemplative Meditation, breath-work and mystical healing practices remain our primary pillars of care while also adhering to a comprehensive and safe biomedical standard of care.
The care experience
Assessment
Patients are encouraged to recline on the treatment table and explore your main concerns with Dr. Leah. A moment will be dedicated to assessing your ailments needs and goals through abdominal palpation and conversational inquiry.
The care experience
Clearing
The treatment will then begin by refreshing your field with the support of sound, botanical waters and plant fans. Any external heaviness is cleared of debris to discard unnecessary accumulations and stagnation surrounding the body.
The care experience
Intention
A quiet moment is taken by Dr. Leah in prayer and invocation for deep intention setting. The patient settles on the table while the Holy presence of the Spirit guides and supports the healing space allowing for a container of safety, protection and wisdom.
The care experience
Embodied Presence
The patient is guided into their physical, emotional and energetic body through breathing and interoception and conscious attunement while Dr. Leah provides somatic grounding touch and verbal guidance allowing the patient to safely embody and explore the root causes of their issues
The care experience
Sound Medicine
As the inner journey continues, the patient discovers areas of themselves in need of care, retrieval, and nourishment. Vocal intoning and various instruments of healing are offered to stabilize, nourish, and transform wounds. The power of sound shifts the form, nature, substance, and condition of the inner experience, bringing insight to the difficult-to-process spaces of our being.
the care experience
Acupuncture
Slowly needles are offered to the patients in a collaborative manner per the providers suggestion as a form to interrupt old patterns, disperse accumulations, clear pathogenic forces, regulate the movement of Qi, settle the mind and restore the intelligent communication of the mind-body-spirit. The Gold needle is often chosen when warmth, tonification, and consolidation is needed
the care experience
Integration
As the activated peak of treatment wanes, patients enter a period of contemplative integration and quiescence. Stones and crystals are offered to reinforce and affirm the new healing pattern; fortifying the treatment. Patients are left in private for several minutes for a moment of rest, alignment and personal autonomy.
the care experience
Blessing
After a short period of integration, the needles and crystals are removed and the patient is offered anointing and blessing by oleation on the crown, womb and feet claiming peace, healing and power over her as she moves from the treatment space back into the world.
the care experience
Closing
Patients change back into their clothing, collect their personal effects and spend several minutes discussing next steps, lifestyle considerations and follow-up care for continued support. New patients receive a gift back with care items to enjoy at home.

The Embodied Acupuncture Method
Discover the Treatment Approach Behind our Women's Embodied Acupuncture Service
Developed by Dr. Leah Rebekah, EAM centers developing awareness of what is happening within the body, mind and energy field in real time. Rather than immediately attempting to change these experiences, treatment creates space for their safe, slow, and contemplative activation and exploration. Through gentle moment-to-moment tracking, the patient and provider follow the pattern as it emerges, changes, resolves, or reveals something new.
Acupuncture is introduced directly into this unfolding process. Drawing upon Dr. Leah’s extensive knowledge of the psychosomatic and energetic functions of acupuncture points, each needle is selected and introduced intentionally and sequentially in response to what is emerging in the moment.
A point may be chosen to invite movement, deepen awareness, consolidate energy, disperse stagnancy, facilitate clearing, establish focus, invite internal renegotiation, or create another meaningful point of change as the process unfolds. Each acupuncture needle introduces a dynamic shift directly into the body while a pattern is actively present, creating an opportunity for the patient to encounter something different while the learned response is accessible and more malleable. Needling therefore becomes not only something performed on the patient, but an active part of the patient’s moment-to-moment discovery and development within treatment.
EAM expands beyond the conventional model of acupuncture in which acupuncture points are preselected based on signs and symptoms assessed before treatment. All needles are inserted at once and the patient is then left to rest with the needles in a relatively neutral state alone. Instead, EAM recognizes the internal activation, awareness, and responsiveness that emerge during treatment as the essential therapeutic window—and acupuncture as an intervention that can be deliberately introduced within that unfolding process one responsive needle at a time. While the practitioner has a comprehensive repertoire of acupuncture points in mind at the start of your treatment, is it the sequential unfolding of the treatment itself that is most therapeutically advantageous.
