NWP EP 13 | How Acupuncture Works and Can Benefit You
The Nutrition World Podcast | EP 13
The idea of being a human pincushion may not be the height of relaxation for everyone, but we're here to argue that acupuncture can indeed be just that. Traditional Chinese medicine, herbalism, and acupuncture are practices that have existed for thousands of years and benefited people greatly around the world. These practices aren't that common in our area, so imagine how grateful we are to have a skilled practitioner of these healing techniques right on our campus.
Meet Jamie Jackson:
Originally from Pittsburgh, PA, Jamie moved to Colorado after completing her bachelor’s degree in biology. She spent years working in veterinary medicine and for Donor Alliance (a non-profit organization specializing in organ and tissue recovery for transplant). While in Denver, she was introduced to acupuncture and Chinese herbal treatments when seeking medical help for her beloved dog, Moose, as he battled neuropathy. The benefits she saw in him developed a passion and love for Chinese medicine that would spur Jamie to obtain a master’s degree in Chinese medicine.
In December, 2011, she graduated from The Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine and became a licensed acupuncturist in the State of Colorado. In 2016, she became a licensed acupuncturist in the State of Tennessee. Jamie was awarded Diplomate status from the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine and has obtained a Clean Needle Certification from the Council of Colleges of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.
After many years of living and practicing in Colorado, she and her family moved to Chattanooga in 2016. Jamie enjoys being on her bicycle, trail running, yoga and exploring all that Chattanooga offers. Because of her active lifestyle, she understands, firsthand, how beat up our bodies can get. Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine helped her mend bumps and bruises, and it has helped her conquer chronic issues that could have hindered my "fun in the sun" lifestyle.
