Eileen Teller L.Ac.

I am a Native to these Mountains with a passion for Chinese Taoist Philosophy.  It is from my Asian travels, studies of Taoist philosophy and its medicine; as well as my full immersion in the Colorado Rocky Mountains, that I have found health and happiness in my own authenticity.  The Tao has taught me to look deeply and with curiosity at the rhythms within the natural world, as we are but a reflection and extension of nature.

I look forward to supporting others on their paths to wellness and prosperity.

What is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture has been used in China for thousands of years as a primary form of healthcare.  Traditionally used preventatively, it can be utilized still as a preventative medicine; to maintain an uplifted and vital rhythm of living. Acupuncture is also used to treat existing conditions in mind, body, and spirit.  To alleviate pain, as a maintenance therapy for chronic illnesses, as well as for emotional and mental disturbances.

The careful observation of natural laws brought forth this gentle and effective medicine by recognizing that the same laws apply within the human body and experience.  We are both a reflection and extension of nature.  Acupuncture focuses on diagnosing, treating, and transforming at the deepest level.  Correction of imbalances through energetic meridians of energy within the body, can relieve symptoms of specific conditions while also providing a sense of overall well-being.

Acupuncture, combined with the coaching provided by Eileen will allow you to find what it means to be your most optimal you in Mind, Body, and Spirit.

Fuel your future!

How Does Acupuncture Work?

Chinese philosophy teaches that all life energy, or Qi (pronounced CHEE), flows through the body throughout channels called meridians.  An optimal flow of Qi that is both abundant and of the highest quality leads to optimum health.  If Qi becomes weak or obstructed, a person becomes susceptible to disease.  Symptoms of disease can then manifest within our physical body, mind, and/or spirit.

Acupuncture practitioners assess the balance of a client’s Qi and the strength of each element within the body.  The cause of imbalance will be identified, and the practitioner will then plan a treatment based on the individual’s needs, and with the correction of any imbalances in mind.

Because acupuncture treats the whole person, clients often report improvement with additional health issues not associated with their initial complaint.
