Melanie Miller, LAc, DiplOM (NCCAOM)
Licensed Acupuncturist and Nationally Certified Herbologist
Melanie first tried acupuncture in the early 1990s, when she sought help with sports injuries. She soon discovered that the regular treatments had lessened her debilitating menstrual symptoms. In her 30's, when Melanie began to develop seasonal allergies, she was able to use herbs to prevent allergic outbreaks, and enjoy Spring again!
After four years of studying acupuncture and Chinese herbology at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in New York, Melanie is excited to be part of the acupuncture community in Philadelphia. The focus of her practice has primarily been the treatment of orthopedic injuries and joint pain, as well as menstrual disorders and cancer treatment support. Melanie also has extensive experience working with HIV-positive patients and the transgender community.
An avid yoga practitioner, Melanie is interested in helping women and men move vibrantly into their middle years – and beyond. She is excited about employing different methods to achieve good health, including nutrition, meditation and yoga breathing techniques. Melanie is also a certified reflexologist and Thai yoga therapist, and brings a hands-on approach to helping patients feel their best.
Melanie loves sharing her knowledge with different populations, and is thrilled to give people the tools they need to gain control of their health and well being.
