About Diane Price L.Ac
I have been an acupuncturist for 11 years and I love my work. After
graduating from College in Australia I found that my Arts degree had
trained me to be a researcher and writer, something that I did for a while,
but found it to be too solitary for a people person like myself. I trained to be
a massage therapist while I decided what I wanted to do with my life. As so
often happens massage became my life. It has taken me on adventures to
different parts of the globe. It took me to Japan for two and a half years to
train and work as a Shiatsu practitioner and to places in the U.S.A and
Australia. Like many acupuncturists I came to acupuncture first as a patient
when I found that acupuncture was able to help me manage a condition
that at the time conventional medicine had very little to offer.
I have worked as an acupuncturist in the Southwest of the United States,
Australia, and for 6 years in Alaska. In Alaska I worked as Team Lead in an
integrated acupuncture clinic within the Alaska Native Medical Center for
three years. There I was able to help design a model for acupuncture
delivery within a modern hospital. That experience showed me how
fabulous the results can be with acupuncture if a patient is able to get the
treatment they need because the treatment is affordable and they are able
to get in on the day that they need to.
I am Australian-born but last year proudly became an American too. This
country has been good to me and I would like to give back to it by providing
relevant, affordable treatment for conditions that acupuncture uniquely
treats well.
In my free time I am hiking, parenting, camping, dancing and cooking for my
friends: though not necessarily all at once!
