Cassie Becker, Acupuncturist
I am from the small community of Cheboygan, Michigan where I graduated high school. I moved to Charlotte, North Carolina earning my Bachelor's of Science degree in business. I worked in NY and Connecticut before realizing sitting in a cubical is not my thing. I picked up my massage certification a few years later in upstate NY. My journey of healing others happily began here. I spent time in NYC, Florida and NV providing healing massage therapy. I then decided to study acupuncture, an approach I have found, has longer more powerfully lasting results.
I earned my Master's degree of Acupuncture and Herbology in Las Vegas, Thailand and China. I have been able to heal hundreds with Herbs and acupuncture. I have studied different types of acupuncture including five element, Korean 4 needle approach, local and distal therapies, electro-acupuncture and Scalp and Auricular all with incredible results.
I ended up in Montana after meeting a wonderful man on a cruise to Belize and he convinced me that living in Montana was the last best place on earth and I have been convinced. I enjoy camping, trail riding, motorcycle trips and vacations off on a coast somewhere!
I look forward to meeting you and helping you find health and wellness.
Treatments
This is where our journey begins. We're glad you're here to be a part of our story. It is encouraged that you wear loose fitting clothing and a sleeveless shirt or tank top allowing access to elbows and knees. The energy we are adjusting which is causing imbalance in your body presenting as pain or discomfort generally is "clogged" or stagnant in the natural crooks of our body like the elbow and knees. We insert needles according to your symptoms and information gained during the initial intake.
Many people report a calmness and wellness after a treatment. The balancing peeks about three days after the treatments and how rapidly symptoms return may indicate both how many treatments it may take to find lasting relief or if an herbal formula is indicated.
The initial treatment may last up to 2 hours but further treatments commonly last 45 minutes to an hour.
To begin treatments, text or email your email address and what time/day works best for you and we will set an appointment for you. The initial appointment includes a medical intake, diagnosis and your first treatment. This will take between 75 minutes to 2 hours. We will discuss the number of treatments it may take to achieve your results.
Included
The acupuncture treatments may also include liniments, guasha (rapid scraping), cupping, moxibustion or electroacupuncture.
Guasha and cupping brings local stagnation to the surface leaving round marks or streaks, These are not bruises. No vessels was damaged in the treatment and the effect surpasses most other manipulation approaches.
Why take herbs?
In nature, there is an herb that replicates every action that individual acupuncture points heal. Therefore many times an herbal formula is added to treatments to achieve stronger and longer lasting healing results.
"Acupuncture has worked for me for years. It was a blessing to have Cassie locally (St.Ignace, MI). I see her for a variety of issues..."
