22: Acupuncturist & Herbal Medicine, Katelyn Michals

This episode we have an interview with Katelyn Michals, a national board-certified licensed acupuncturist who has been working with patients in the Greater Milwaukee Area since 2008. She graduated from the Midwest College of Oriental Medicine with a Master’s in Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine, and a bachelor’s in nutrition. Katelyn infuses her treatments with mind-body education, and is on a personal mission to gently remind each person she meets of the innate wellness that already resides within them.

She is a certified practitioner with SIRPA (which stands for Stress Illness Recovery Practitioner’s Association), an organization that aims to educate physicians and patients alike of the connections between emotional and physical trauma, psychological stress, and chronic symptoms. We will also chat with Marla Waseka, an FSHer from Minnesota who uses some of these tools for dealing with her FSHD.
