Registered Acupuncturist  |  Certified Bowen Therapist  |  Women’s Health, Fertility, & Athletic Performance

 

Hi, I’m Ashley!

Ashley Headshot ()

I am a Registered Acupuncturist and certified Bowen therapist with a background in homeopathy and over 10 years of experience in holistic health. My passion lies in helping individuals move beyond their diagnoses, empowering them to thrive rather than be defined by their health challenges.

My journey into holistic health was a deeply personal one. I struggled with endometriosis for years, searching for relief beyond conventional treatments. It was through holistic assistive therapies that I finally found balance and healing. That experience shaped my dedication to helping others, especially in the field of women’s health and fertility.

I know what it’s like to feel frustrated by health challenges, and I also know how powerful the right support can be in restoring well-being.

Whether you’re navigating hormonal transitions like perimenopause, trying to conceive, or recovering postpartum, I’m here to help you feel at home in your body again.

Beyond my work in women’s health, I have a deep love for endurance sports. As an endurance athlete, I understand the toll training can take—and how important it is to care for your body along the way. When I’m not in the clinic, you’ll probably find me running, cycling, or swimming, usually training for my next big race. I love pushing my limits, but I also believe that racing should always be fun. That mindset carries into my practice—I work with athletes and active individuals to recover faster, stay injury-free, and perform at their best, all while keeping the joy in movement.

At the heart of everything I do is the belief that true healing isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about unlocking the body’s resilience and vitality. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, supporting your fertility journey, or simply looking to feel your best, I would love to be part of your path to wellness.

Let’s work together to help you feel strong, balanced, and ready for whatever comes next.

WOMEN’S HEALTH AND FERTILITY

I am passionate about women’s health and fertility, supporting clients through all stages of life—whether they are navigating hormonal changes, trying to conceive, or seeking overall balance. I love working with individuals to restore harmony in the body, enhance recovery, and promote long-term well-being. By addressing the root causes of imbalance, I aim to create personalized treatment plans that support physical, emotional, and reproductive health. My goal is to empower clients with the tools and care they need to feel their best, no matter where they are in their journey.

ATHLETIC PERFORMANCE

As an endurance athlete, I understand firsthand the physical and mental demands that sports place on the body. Whether recovering from intense training, managing injuries, or striving for peak performance, I recognize the importance of tailored care to support the body’s resilience and recovery. My approach integrates acupuncture, Bowen therapy, and holistic health principles to help athletes enhance mobility, prevent injuries, and optimize performance—allowing them to train smarter and recover faster. Whether you’re preparing for an event, overcoming a setback, or looking to maintain long-term vitality, I’m here to support you every step of the way.

ACUPUNCTURE

Acupuncture is a time-tested therapy that supports the body’s natural ability to heal and regulate itself. By stimulating specific points along the body’s meridians, acupuncture helps to reduce pain, balance hormones, improve circulation, and enhance overall well-being. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, managing stress, or working through a health challenge, acupuncture offers a gentle yet effective way to restore balance and optimize function—helping you feel stronger, more energized, and in tune with your body.

BOWEN THERAPY

Bowen Therapy is a gentle, hands-on technique that encourages the body to reset and heal itself. Using precise, rolling movements over muscles, tendons, and fascia, it helps to release tension, improve circulation, and restore nervous system balance. This deeply relaxing therapy is effective for addressing pain, injuries, and stress-related conditions, making it a powerful tool for both recovery and overall well-being. Whether you’re dealing with chronic discomfort, recovering from intense training, or simply looking to restore balance, Bowen Therapy supports your body’s natural ability to heal and function at its best
