What Does Our Clinic Offer?
Our dedicated team of licensed acupuncturists is committed to providing personalized care tailored to each patient's unique needs. We integrate ancient wisdom with modern techniques to achieve optimal health outcomes.
​
A Holistic Healing Experience
We have intentionally created a space where you feel relaxed and supported. Our treatments are designed to soothe and heal, offering an immersive experience that promotes both physical and mental well-being. We use hair-thin, sterile needles inserted into various acupoints to send signals to the brain, encouraging it to heal and rebalance. This process can quickly reduce pain, stress, and other symptoms. When appropriate, we also use natural injections to enhance the healing process.
​

The Healing Process
When we experience stress, injuries, or lifestyle changes, our bodies can become imbalanced and manifest illness. Acupuncture works by reconnecting the body and brain, restoring optimal communication, and improving overall functioning.
​
Our goal is to make you resilient so that your physical and mental health thrive. Whether you're dealing with chronic pain, mental health issues, or other health challenges, we're here to guide you towards a healthier, more balanced life.
Kiya Hunter, Licensed Acupuncturist
Kiya grew up on a 100-acre farm in Eastern Oregon with dreams of becoming a doctor. However, after realizing that prescription medication wasn't the path she wanted to follow, she pursued massage therapy to work with people while attending medical school. During her studies, a teacher recommended acupuncture for her chronic vertigo—one session later, the vertigo was gone, and her passion for holistic medicine was born.
​
"I love the idea that the body can heal itself—it just needs the right conditions."
​
Kiya earned her Master of Science in Acupuncture from the Phoenix Institute of Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture, followed by advanced training in holistic pelvic care, pediatrics, functional medicine, natural injection therapy, and neurosensory integration. She continues to provide natural treatments to families, focusing on personalized care for each patient. Kiya also dedicates her time to volunteering, offering support for veterans and postpartum mothers struggling with pain, anxiety, and PTSD.
​
When not in the clinic, Kiya enjoys spending quality time with her husband, a USMC veteran, and their child in Scottsdale. She continues to expand her knowledge of health, science, and natural medicine, while staying connected to nature.
