Gentle, Compassionate and Effective Care To Support Your Wellness

Feeling seen and heard is healthcare

As a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) practitioner, I place a strong emphasis on listening to the patient’s story, observing physical aspects such as the hue of the skin and the qualities of the tongue, and feeling the energy in the pulses.  This guides me to the proper treatment that will bring the patient to a state of greater balance.  It shouldn’t be too much to be “heard” and “seen” at a medical appointment.  As your  acupuncturist I value the observations and experiences you have in your body and consider you to be the expert!  I am simply the guide. We work together as a team to achieve optimal wellness.

“From the moment we had our first conversation I could tell Maureen would be a good fit given how she listened to my concerns without judging as I felt other practitioners had. We were successful with our first cycle together. At 12 weeks I learned I had Placenta Previa and sought out advice from Maureen. She was hopeful that a few treatments together with a growing belly would allow the Previa to correct so I could avoid a high risk pregnancy and again, we were successful. Maureen is caring, compassionate, knowledgeable, and was positive throughout the process. She listened to my concerns and thoroughly explained everything. I would recommend her without question.”

One of my gifts is to be able to hold a non-judgemental space so that patients can feel safe and supported in sharing their whole story and what brings them for acupuncture and Chinese Medicine treatment. 

My prescriptions for treatment are gentle and doable. We won’t reinvent the wheel overnight. It is a process, one that should not be overwhelming.

Our work together will be based on realistic, compassionate, and effective goals, and you will actually love the journey!

“Maureen McLaughlin has been instrumental to the conception of my perfect baby girl. At 49, even with donor eggs, I was concerned about a successful pregnancy. Accupuccture is known to assist in embryo transfers. Maureen not only traveled to Advanced Fertility center of Chicago to administer my acupuncture on site before and after the transfer, but helped put me at ease with her calming presence. She offered reiki at no charge and listened to my fears.

Maureen was genuinely interested in our progress and expressed concern with our miscarriage. She provided me with a discount for the second session when we tried again because it was soon after the first try.

I am extremely grateful for Maureen assisting us in conceiving our baby girl.

Thank you Maureen.”
