Night Sky Acupuncture + Ideaphoria

Liz Asch Greenhill, LAc.

I offer acupuncture and somatic work for transformational experiences, deepening embodiment, heightened creativity, end-of-life care, pain, and to regulate the nervous system. 

*

I do not manage care or do primary care. If we are a good fit, I can serve as an auxiliary person in your network. I am a certified herbalist and can bring herbal medicine into your treatment plan. I offer hands-on work as an acupuncturist and hands-off work as an educator on creative embodiment and as an assistant to help bring new methods of integrative creativity to individuals and groups of artists and thinkers. 

*

I am the creator and host of Body Land Metaphor Medicine, a free guided visualization resource on the podcast platform. Listen and get a sense of what it’s like to work with me. These are deep listening experiences that require time set aside in a still, quiet place. They can be listened to in bed for insomnia, via headphones on public transportation for self-regulation, in groups as a guided meditation with an integration discussion afterwards, and so on. They are not to be listened to while driving or multi-tasking. Listen on Spotify, Apple podcasts, Amazon Music, or download directly here on my website. Please share widely. These are a public offering. 

*

You can sign up for a session here for one-on-one acupuncture in my office on East Burnside (second floor, no elevator) across from the Jupiter Hotel/Doug Fir. Or, reach out to me for my availability for a session at your hotel, home, or hospice place of care. I work with individuals and groups (families, coworkers, creative teams, housemates).

*

I am fully vaccinated and take all Covid precautions. Please take precautions and cancel if you have Covid. Last minute cancellations will be charged a fee.

*

I am in-network with Providence, MODA, and Pacific Source. If I am out-of-network with your health insurance, you can pay up front and I will give you a superbill to send in to your insurance company so that they reimburse you directly. If the out-of-pocket cost prohibits you from coming in, please email me and let me know. If you are a community organizer for a BIPOC non-profit, you may receive up to four free sessions per year. Sign up under the BLM option for your free healthcare.
