Our Philosophy

At New Moon Wellness, we believe in supporting each women’s path to optimal fertility through empowering and educating our patients through skilled, nurturing, and experienced care.

We believe there is great value and importance in treating the whole person: mind, body and spirit.  We are committed to making this process as easy and stress free as possible for women and families in our community.

Acupuncture has been in use for thousands of years and is a rigorous and systematic form of medicine that has been steeped in rich culture for over 4,000 years.  It is a safe and effective way to enhance fertility, prepare the body for pregnancy, and aid in maintaining viable pregnancies and live births.

“Working with Shannon during my struggles to get pregnant was a bright spot during a very difficult time.  She was always positive and supportive.  The treatments were calming and really helped with my overall mood.  I also saw Shannon during the end of my pregnancy and postpartum.  It was an amazing experience.”
