Dr. Christie Teruel, DACM, LAc

Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine

Hello! My name is Dr. Christie and I am a holistic wellness provider and founder of Centered in Wellness. I am passionate about helping my community achieve optimal wellness with the use of acupuncture, herbs and other Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) modalities. I love how holistic medicine supports the patient’s physical, mental and emotional health and encourages the body to heal through its own innate abilities.

I have a doctorate and master’s degree in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, a bachelor’s degree in Biochemistry and a minor in Dance. My previous experience includes working with military and veteran families through outreach programs as well as with Rady’s Children’s Hospital for both inpatient and outpatient services. I love to learn and continuously take advanced training courses in Acupuncture, Nutrition, Chinese Medicine, and Functional Medicine.
