Sacramento Acupuncture Project 

Whitney (she/her) works at SAP Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings. Many years working in the grueling, yet rewarding, food service industry created the aches and pains that initially led me to acupuncture. With school completed, I worried about what my practice would look like and whether I would actually make it as an acupuncturist. I was thrilled and relieved to learn about Community Acupuncture, and I have never practiced professionally any other way! When not in the clinic I read and hike and laugh and spend time with my two wise and amazing boys.

Lori is originally from Long Island, NY, but has been living in California since 2000, where she went to acupuncture school. She previously worked at both Oakland and Sacramento Acupuncture Project and is excited to bring her healing skills back to SAP beginning May 20th. Lori spends lots of time hiking and at dog parks with her pup Minny, and is also looking forward to exploring new outdoor and winter sports during her leisure time. If she winds up sitting home reading or watching horror movies, that’s cool too.
