Leah first encountered acupuncture on a cultural exchange to Cuba in 2001. Intrigued, she began her study of East Asian medicine including acupressure, massage, shiatsu and herbalism.  After several years as a licensed massage therapist she began her formal study of acupuncture and Chinese medicine.  

Leah creates non-judgemental partnerships with her patients. She strives to give patients the tools they need to get better and stay better, utilizing the gentle yet effective power of acupuncture, herbs, massage, nutrition, movement therapy and lifestyle tweaks.   

Leah is licensed with the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice and is certified through the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine. She graduated summa cum laude with a Masters degree in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine from Northwestern Health Sciences University in Bloomington, MN in 2010.  She studied abroad in Tianjin, China in the areas of stroke rehab, pain and pediatrics. Leah attended the Minnesota Institute of Ayurveda and received her Ayurvedic Health Counselor (AHC) certification in 2019.

Leah has also received certifications in Cosmetic Acupuncture, Western Herbalism, Ayurvedic body work and advanced studies for pain related conditions. Relying on the strengths each of these modalities offers, she seamlessly blends these tools into a uniquely crafted treatment for each patient.

In her daily life, Leah works to overturn the colonial legacy she has inherited by working under the guidance and leadership of Black, Indigenous and colonized peoples in their struggle for power. She actively engages in the reparative work essential to the creation of a social system free from all forms of oppression.

I started acupuncture sort of on a lark, and now can’t imagine not having it. For me, it helps me stay balanced and calm. I’ve been going a few years now, but I moved away and took a 9-month break. I swear, I could feel my stress levels rising that whole time. As soon as I got back to my regular schedule, life was better again. I recommend acupuncture to my friends all the time. And all I can say is – life is better with it. I’m not even quite sure how, but it sure is.

I began cupping therapy at Constellation after 6 weeks of getting absolutely no where with physical therapy. I was feeling very frustrated with my physical therapist and was getting to the point where I was questioning what my next step would be and trying to decide if maybe I could just live/handle/deal with the constant discomfort and pain I was feeling. It took one cupping treatment with Leah to reduce my pain and discomfort to almost non-existent and to keep my hope of living a relatively pain free life alive. I have continued to receive treatment at Constellation for all my ongoing aches and pains related to a very active lifestyle. I am so thankful that I have found a therapy that works well and is effective and affordable. I have noticed that my hip pain has been greatly improved with cupping club and have seen improvements in other aspects of my life such as my overall mood, menstrual cycle, digestion, back, neck and shoulder pain.
