A little bit about Takhinsha Hollis LAc:
Takhinsha comes from a family of curanderas and traditional Indigenous birth workers that inspired her to become a perinatal Acupuncturist. She is a mother of 3 beautiful boys, and her birth experiences brought her back to honor her roots by learning different traditional medicines that help with the transition of birth to postpartum. Takhinsha traveled for a few years to Asia and the US, where she studied different bodywork modalities and traditional medicines, giving her extensive knowledge which she uses in her treatments.
