Lisa Keyes is passionate about partnering with patients to improve physical and emotional symptoms through acupuncture, Reiki, nutritional counseling, lifestyle coaching, and other Chinese medicine modalities. One of the major reasons she loves acupuncture is the wide variety of issues it can help with, and that multiple health issues can be addressed simultaneously through personalized treatments. Lisa has had experience treating many conditions, including: digestive issues, migraines & headaches, menstrual issues, insomnia, anxiety, allergies, and sciatica.
Lisa was a looking to make a career change and knew she wanted to be in a hands-on profession that would help people make positive changes in their lives. Around the same time, she was having a lot of neck pain and was getting migraines on a regular basis. As someone who always looks to natural remedies before turning to Western medicine or medications, when a friend suggestion acupuncture, Lisa gave it a try. It worked what felt like a miracle. To this day, she can vividly remember how amazing she felt after the first treatment. Lisa then decided to move to Maryland to attend acupuncture school.
She graduated with a Master of Acupuncture degree from Tai Sophia Institute (now Maryland University of Integrative Health) in 2009. She was licensed and practicing acupuncture in Maryland before moving to Massachusetts.
