She often gets the best results for her patients by combining the two modalities, especially when treating chronic or serious medical conditions. Michelle has had great success treating pain, infertility, migraines, allergies, asthma, digestive issues, hot flashes, insomnia, depression and anxiety. She also enjoys great success treating less common but serious health conditions such as Bell’s Palsy, neuropathy, tremors and cancer treatment side effects.
Michelle received her BA in Botany and Conservation Ecology with a minor in Modern Dance from Hampshire College, Amherst, MA. Shortly after undergraduate school, Michelle became introduced to acupuncture and knew that one day she would to learn how to help others feel the same state of comfort and wellness within their body that she felt as a result of her acupuncture treatments. Having spent her life studying the mind/body arts (such a yoga & qigong), dance, Buddhism, ecology and sustainable agriculture, a formal study of Chinese Medicine was a perfect cumulation of her life passion for holistic theory and mind/body balance. Michelle has an exceptional energetic and kinesthetic awareness of the body—its movement, its energy and its mind/body connection. She is passionate about the interdependence between our environment, food, thoughts and personal health. She enjoys sharing her love for an organic, whole foods diet by inspiring people to cook and by creating and sharing her favorite recipes in our blog. Michelle lives in Stow, MA with her husband and business partner, Bhaird. In addition to practicing Chinese Medicine, she enjoys spending time with her husband and their twelve year old daughter, learning to play the cello, cooking, organic gardening, canoeing and hiking.

Bhaird graduated cum laude from UMass Amherst with a BA in Japanese Language and Literature. While teaching English in Japanese elementary schools, Bhaird struggled with frequent colds and flus that quickly resolved once he sought treatment with acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine. Prior to teaching in Japan, Bhaird worked as a paramedic and had been considering a career as a medical doctor. He spent a lot of time working in hospitals and observing conventional medical treatments of modern diseases and traumas. Although he has great respect for conventional medicine, he was soon impressed by the simplicity and effectiveness of Chinese Medicine, along with its absence of serious side effects. This actualization of the “first do no harm” tenet of medicine, together with a life long interest in Asia and martial arts, led Bhaird to the study and practice of Chinese Medicine.
Bhaird recently served as the Executive Director of the Japan Society of Boston. Bhaird lives in Stow, MA with his wife and business partner, Michelle. In addition to practicing Chinese Medicine, he enjoys spending time with his wife and their twelve year old daughter, cooking, organic gardening, canoeing, hiking, practicing calligraphy, traveling and guiding trips in Japan.
