Emotional Wellness

Acupuncture is a gentle and naturally effective option for the treatment of mental & emotional health conditions because of its ability to: regulate the body’s stress response, improve circulation, release endorphins and improve your nervous system's adaptability, empowering you to face changes & challenges with resilience.

Acupuncture offers the body the signals of safety it needs to heal so you can alchemize your wounds into wisdom and blossom into the fullest expression of your being.

The potency of Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine lies in the fact that it is an ancient and comprehensive mind-body medicine.

For centuries, it has respected how the psyche, body, and spirit are inseparable entities that mirror each other: how suppressed or intense emotions can lead to somatic manifestations of pain and other ailments.

“Healing is just as much a process of reclaiming as it is of becoming”

- Dr. Lauren Favreau

 
 

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING

“I have Bipolar and found it hard in the past to regulate my mood swings, even with proper care and regulation. Mentally after about 3 months of seeing Dr. Lauren, my family noticed my mood swings were less unpredictable. My bouts of every two-week meltdowns evolved to an even keel. My psychiatrist was baffled, as he has tried for over 2 years to relieve any of my symptoms. Acupuncture ended up turning my life around.”

WHAT PATIENTS ARE SAYING

"Dr. Lauren is incredibly gifted. She has the power to help change lives and she is doing just that every day. Anyone who is lucky enough to be in her realm of care knows exactly what I mean. I understand that Acupuncture has a plethora of benefits. For me, she has helped turn my crippling fear and anxiety, into something that’s in my control. I am truly able to be present in my life, to reflect, to feel, to respond instead of react. That in itself is a gift I never thought was possible for me. I was exposed to serious trauma from the very beginning of my life. Dr. Lauren is healing my nervous system and it is allowing me to be back in my body. To feel human. Not fearful, anxious, edgy, and controlling. I could go on and on, but the proof is in the treatments, so if you’re still curious, you’ll have to try yourself!"

Returning to Yourself After Trauma

My soul’s work is weaving and re-weaving the webs of wisdom contained in the constellation of your body…

From the threads of your nervous system and connective tissue…

To your heart’s most sensitive yet enduring strings.

We share our time reintegrating the parts of you that are disconnected, willfully hidden, or unknowingly exiled from shock, fear, loss, shades of death, injury, and change…

Layer by layer, as we connect your story & symptoms to the memories stored in your vessel, we remind your body of its wholeness, your spirit of its resilience, and you of your capacity to heal.

 
 

WHAT PATIENTS ARE SAYING

“A few months ago I was really struggling and was asked by my therapist if we felt it was time to add in an antidepressant, which I was reluctant to because I have tried many before with limited success. I then heard of Rune through a coworker…I can honestly say going to see Lauren has been one of the best decisions I’ve done for my mental health and overall well-being… She listens so well and cares so much that she allowed me to open up and talk about things I’ve suppressed for a long time, things I’ve kept from so many people as a way to protect myself…I cannot explain all the ways Lauren has helped me, and how much I would recommend her to anyone who is struggling and wants to try a more non-pharmaceutical approach. Thank you, Lauren, really. You’ve given me the hope and support I’ve needed but didn’t realize I was missing."
