Tamryn Storm Hawker

Owner, Acupuncturist

My approach to health care is multi-faceted. I am a Nationally licensed Acupuncturist, Herbalist and East Asian Medicine practitioner, combining the wisdom from many different disciplines to address the unique health concerns of the individual, You! Graduating Summa Cum Laude from Dongguk University, and deepening my studies in herbal medicine and acupuncture in Beijing, China, have given me a rich foundation in this elegant medicine. I combine my degree in Holistic Nutrition and Complementary Medicine with over a decade's experience as a massage

therapist and yoga teacher to listen to and respond to the body as a whole. 

I graduated from the American College of Healthcare Sciences in 2012, focusing primarily in Holistic Nutrition and Herbalism. After gaining some hands-on experience interning with herbalist and Naturopathic Dr. Katolen Yardley MNIMH in Vancouver, I moved to Big Sur to live, study and work at the Esalen Institute. During this year and a half immersion between the PCH and the Pacific ocean, I began my formal training as a yoga teacher and  massage therapist, while interning with Dr. Randy Baker MD (homeopath and holistically oriented family physician). With many years experience working in private practice as a bodyworker I began my studies in Eastern medicine and Acupuncture at Dongguk University Los Angeles, further deepening my practice and understanding of this medicine at The China Beijing International Acupuncture Training Center, Institute of Acupuncture and Academy of Chinese Medical Studies.             Read More...

As a licensed acupuncturist with over a decade of experience in Traditional Chinese Medicine, I am dedicated to delivering compassionate and patient-centered care that fosters balance, relief and wellness. Through personalized acupuncture treatments integrated with the principles of Chinese medicine, I aim to support your journey toward optimal health and vitality. 

 

My passion for healthcare traces back to my formative years at Hunan University of Chinese Medicine, where I immersed myself in an intensive eight-year program, earning both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in

Chinese medicine. During this time, I completed a one-year internship at Shenzhen Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine and three years of residency training at the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine. These experiences provided me with extensive clinical experience and honed my skills in managing diverse and complex cases with confidence, precision and compassion.                                                                                   Read More...
