Nicole Cutler, the Professional & the Person

 

Nicole Cutler, L.Ac., MTCM has been a licensed acupuncturist and Chinese herbalist since 2000. Always gentle, she combines many styles of treatment to deliver a maximum therapeutic benefit. 

 

Nicole specializes in relieving acute and chronic pain, depression, anxiety, stress and insomnia. In addition, Nicole’s treatments are effective for balancing hormones, battling addiction, boosting fertility, improving digestive health and supporting the immune system.

 

Philosophy

Nicole recognizes the human body as a whole; where physical and emotional challenges represent different manifestations of the same imbalance. 

 

According to Nicole, “We are composed of millions of cells that want to be in a healthy state. We are equipped with a sophisticated cellular communication system where discomfort (physically or emotionally) indicates a group of cells that need attention.” 

 

An advocate for an integrative approach, Nicole believes strongly in combining Western and Eastern medical disciplines. Because she also has a background in Western science, Nicole can communicate with her patients and other healthcare providers from several different perspectives.
