About Nicole Stone, MS, LAc
My journey into holistic medicine began at the age of 19 when I met my first mentor. He taught me different forms of martial arts and qi gong and showed me the power of using my own energy, qi (pronounced chee) to strengthen, balance and heal the body. Through meditation and mindful intention I learned how to calm the mind and let go of pain. And with nutrition and herbs I experienced the great benefits of using food as medicine. I am grateful for the healing journey that set me on a path toward acupuncture and all the knowledge I get to pass on to you.
After decades of working with multiple mentors, coaches and healers I know first hand the benefits of self-care. Sometimes the best healing is to simply go for a hike, stick your feet in the ocean, dance around the house or laugh with friends.
I look forward to sharing my years of personal experience and education to help you along your journey to great health.
