Jessica McDonald Dr. of Ac, R.Ac, SEP

I have been a registered acupuncturist for over 10 years working compassionately with clients from all lifestyles and assisting in their healing journey as a trauma informed practitioner. As a lifetime student, I thrive when learning new skills, techniques, and processes. 

 

As a result, the treatments that I offer are unique, thorough, and considerate. My approach is to create a safe and non-judgemental space where clients can explore and gain insight into their areas of concern, to collaborate to broaden their perspectives, and find meaning in experiences and the felt sense. My mission is to help you reclaim your authentic self and identify your strengths, so you can live a life filled with pleasure, joy, enthusiasm, and purpose... Read More

Kelli

Jessy is an excellent health care provider. She makes an effort to truly understand her patients, and is a great and attentive listener. She maximizes patient comfort and is extremely knowledgeable at what she does. I have been seeing her for a couple of years now, and I always look forward to our sessions together due to her gentle, caring and effective approach to treatment.

Tiffany

Jessica’s expertise in acupuncture and healing have helped immensely over the years. Through her well thought out treatments, she has helped treat various issues I have struggled with, both physical and mental. I always leave Jess feeling healed, grounded and at peace. She always makes me feel welcome and cared for and is very attentive to both my physical and mental health needs. Her space is a safe space to receive support and healing. I highly recommend her services!

R.S.

Our entire family (husband, myself & 2 teenage daughters) have seen Jess on a regular basis for over 5 years. We feel tremendously lucky to have met Jess, she’s extremely professional but also kind and caring. Our daughters are competitive athletes and need regular treatment – Jess always goes out of her way to help accommodate their constantly evolving schedules and talks to them both about their treatment, suggests preventative exercises, etc. Jess definitely goes above & beyond and truly cares about her patients.

Mikka

Jessica is a compassionate listener and enormously knowledgeable. Her explanations of her treatments are thorough, and she offers additional holistic advice to support healing outside of a session. Her somatic treatments are profoundly healing. I always feel safe and supported in her presence, and I leave a treatment feeling grounded, cared for, healthy, relaxed, and whole. Jessica is the best acupuncturist! She is non-judgmental, open, wise, and kind, and just a truly wonderful human being.

Lisa

That last treatment you gave me… I cannot even begin to tell you the difference it made, and the flow that made it’s way back immediately. My breathing much better right away, and maintained. You are a very gifted practitioner, and I am so very grateful for you and that expertise!

Andrea

My experience with Jessica has been a journey back to health. I had a variety of symptoms causing me to be feeling not well. Jessica’s diagnosis seems to be accurate and her treatments on point; I no longer feel low energy, tired, hot, sick. My symptoms also included emotional distresses that were seemingly challenging. The treatments Jessica administered over the months of working with her helped me to become calmer. I’ve been more able to deal with my emotions from a clear perspective. I would say Jessica has established a treatment to de-stress and to help regain health of those physical burdensome related to stress. Thanks Jessy!
