Titia Larmer, Dipl. Ac., M.Ac., Lic.Ac. Titia is a board certified licensed acupuncturist with over ten years of clinical experience treating patients. She earned her Master of Science degree from the Tri-State College of Acupuncture in Manhattan, NY. While there she learned from some of the country’s leading practitioners, and received training in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Trigger point therapy and Japanese (Kiiko Matsumoto) styles, as well as traditional and Five Elements approaches to acupuncture. Her individual approach draws from these styles. Her interests include allergies, chronic pain, chronic Lyme and psycho-emotional issues. During the past two years she has focused on learning and implementing new strategies for treating injuries and pain. Titia’s entry into acupuncture was the result of a lifelong interest in health and fitness. People often would ask her for advice with health related concerns. What drew her to Asian medicine was the wholistic nature of it, as well as respect for the age old knowledge. She previously worked in the corporate world, so she has first hand knowledge of the challenges accompanying that lifestyle. Her care is provided with compassion and empathy, and she loves helping people return to a more balanced, lighter state. In her spare time, Titia enjoys biking, walking in nature and practicing Qi gong.

Alyssa Gross, LMT Alyssa is a licensed and insured massage therapist in the state of Pennsylvania. Her coursework and hands-on training were completed in 2018 at The Philadelphia School of Massage and Bodywork. She is also certified to practice Reiki energy healing by completing a course of study at The Reiki School in Philadelphia in 2021. As a massage therapist, Alyssa approaches her practice with an understanding of how the body moves, how the brain processes pain and how both together can create dysfunctional patterns and habits. She uses a series of modalities to treat discomfort at the site and at the source. She is a careful listener and seeks to meet each patient where they are on their journey towards ease and comfortability. As a Reiki practitioner, Alyssa is an intuitive healer. She believes that the channeling of our universal energy towards another person with the intention of love and healing is something that we all require and will benefit from. It can improve your mood, improve your sleep, answer questions, bring you peace, help you meditate and restore balance in your mind, body and spirit. Reki is an ancient practice, often misunderstood and shoved aside. It is Alyssa's sincere hope that if this practice calls to you in any way that you follow your intuition and give it a try! Away from work Alyssa has a wonderful daughter attending William Penn Charter. They both enjoy being out in nature and at the beach. Alyssa likes to stay active at the gym, spend time with friends at her new home, work on sewing projects and try new recipes.
