What to Expect

I address your concerns  and give you tangible resources to help you thrive and understand how to get better.  We can do short term quick fixes or get to the root of chronic issues. 

I can treat your sprained ankle or the deep, unresolved trauma causing your insomnia. 

My Unique Approach

I’m like the Sherlock Holmes of acupuncture. From the moment you walk in the door I’m using my powers of deductive reasoning to begin crafting a wellness plan that will fit your lifestyle and unique health profile.

Together we will come up with creative solutions to address the stress, hidden emotional issues, and blockages that hinder your healing.

Is Traditional Chinese Medicine Right for You?

Chinese Medicine isn’t just needles. It’s a 5000 year old holistic system backed by modern research, used in most major US hospitals.

We use a complex set of very specific patterns to diagnose imbalances in your system. These imbalances progress in a predictable way, and we have treatments for each stage.

We connect the dots to show you how your various issues are related, instead of just treating various symptoms.

About Donna Tatum, LAc, MAcCHM

It all started with Rob Zombie.

I was living in L.A., working on a movie he was directing. Working long nights and odd hours in various climates, my sleep, skin, mood and hormones were a mess 

One of the hairstylists sent me to her acupuncturist. Within a few months, I was sleeping soundly, my cycles normalized and I felt like myself again.

Previous to trying acupuncture and TCM herbal formulas, I had tried a ton of alternative remedies and services, yet never saw any lasting change. Traditional Chinese Medicine helped me connect the dots and pinpoint and fix the underlying issues in a way nothing else had. Now, I work with clients who are curious, open to learning and ready for change.

I Have a Unique Education

I was trained by some of the most respected acupuncturists at two of the best integrative acupuncture schools in the country.

TCM Herbs are Safe & Effective

TCM herbalism is very different. Our herbs have been researched thoroughly so we know how they interact with drugs and supplements.  Hospitals like Mayo & Cleveland Clinic  have TCM herbal pharmacies. Most formulas have been in continuous use for 2000+ years. So we know how dose and prescribe in the safest possible way

I Will Help You Get Unstuck

In Chinese medicine, there’s no separation between mind, body, and spirit. Every organ imbalance corresponds to a particular emotion. I don’t just work on your pain, I treat all the underlying blockages that keep you from functioning the way you’d like. I am trained to look past the presenting symptoms and go deeper than a standard physiological and anatomical diagnosis.

TCM Diagnosis

TCM diagnosis allows us to see not only the root cause, but how it will progress.  This allows us to pinpoint and customize treatments. 

 

 

Testimonials

The environment was relaxing and comfortable and yet totally professional and clean. I cried and didn’t feel dumb. I walked out feeling not just better but changed. For the love of everything, go see Donna!
Satisfied Client

I felt very relaxed, lighter physically and emotionally. I’m breathing better and my thought process and mental state has already improved quite a bit.
Satisfied Client

When I woke up this morning and looked in the mirror, I could hardly recognize myself. I’m usually really puffy and swollen in the morning, especially around my eyes and I’m not at all! I can’t believe what a difference you’re making to my face!
