This lecture will give participants an introductory understanding of the history, physiology, and philosophies behind Chinese Medicine.  Learn about the meridians, qi, and organ systems, as well as Chinese Medicine’s Taoist influences and how primary techniques such as needling, cupping, moxa, and gua sha are applied to affect change.

She offers compassionate, effective, and personalized care. Each treatment is based on her patient’s unique presentation and may involve various modalities including acupuncture, herbal medicine, food therapy, essential oils, gua sha, moxibustion and cupping in a supportive and warm environment. Maegan has also taught yoga for over ten years which informs the way she lives and practices medicine. She teaches weekly yoga classes  as well as monthly workshops featuring yin yoga, seasonal health, and acupuncture. Maegan holds a degree in Environmental Studies with a focus in environmental education and sociology. Her passions include nutrition and cooking, hiking in the beautiful Asheville mountains with her husband and dogs, cultivation through movement and meditation, and deepening her knowledge of medicine, philosophy, spirituality, and healing.
