I am excited to offer acupuncture and Chinese Medicine with a compassionate hand and a focused mind to my community here in Louisville. In addition to using Chinese Medicine and acupuncture to treat all human conditions, I am a certified Fellow of the American Board of Oriental Reproductive Medicine specializing in treating infertility and helping women conceive healthy babies.
What are acupuncture benefits and how can it help you? Used in China as a holistic system of medicine for over 3,000 years, acupuncture benefits nearly any human condition in some form or fashion. Acupuncture excels at getting things to move in the body, this improves circulation, inflammation and energy flow allowing your body to heal more efficiently.
First of all, relax! It's not as scary as you may think. Many people are nervous when they arrive for their first acupuncture treatment. The acupuncture needles are virtually painless and we are quite good at putting you at ease and making sure you are comfortable and feel safe. We will explain to you what we will be doing, how it feels and we may even needle ourselves to show you exactly what to expect.

Chinese Medicine has a long history with many different modalities used to obtain optimal health. Depending on the patient, acupuncturists pick which modalities would best suit the condition. What we tend to use most often are: acupuncture, moxibustion, cupping, herbal therapy, and dietary counseling.

I came here as a way to prepare my body for ivf. shelby asked that i take 3 cycles to focus on myself. after the year+ of iuis and letrozole, i was feeling the pressure as most going through infertility do and was resistant. shelby and holly truly create magic and healing by considering the entire self and fostering balance through diet and mind. they are so much more than what i envisioned acupuncturists to be. i wholeheartedly believe my little girl was due to their care and support. i did not have to go through ivf and conceived naturally. if i decide to have another or feel out of balance,

I can’t recommend this group enough. They listen, engage and are the epitome of what consumer centric healthcare should be. Every visit is unique and customized to your current and long term needs/goals. The education/experience that Shelby has is unparalleled. And she has surrounded herself in this practice with people that she would use in her own healthcare journey. If you are looking for a practice to take your whole health into account, or even if you have a very specific goal, look no further!

Shelby is the absolute best! I have seen her for years for general back pain and stress with great relief! When I was ready to start trying to conceive she was a wealth of knowledge and support from trying through my delivery! Her comfort and knowledge was especially appreciated as my third trimester started right when covid restrictions started. I recommend Shelby to everyone I know!

I cannot thank these ladies enough! They helped me through my infertility journey with my first daughter. I had developed preeclampsia with my first pregnancy so when I naturally got pregnant with my second they were my first call! Baby girl #2 made it full term. I’m so grateful that they were able to help me through my journeys and I would highly recommend!

LOVE Shelby and Holly!! I had 2 miscarriages and wanted to do something new for the 3rd try. I say the experience is like having health therapists take care of you. I loved every single part of my acupuncture journey and now I have a sweet baby girl! They go through your entire detailed health history and custom tailor each appt to what you need and where you are in your journey. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I was HIGHLY skeptical of how acupuncture would work, but call me a convert - Shelby's work was immediately impactful for me and helped turn around a long-standing sleep issue. Shelby is a wonderful soul, amazingly compassionate and genuinely works to make sure her clients are cared for. I was blown away by the experience, and have referred several friends there. Check it out.

We had a miscarriage and then struggled with unexplained infertility for 2 years, during which we started seeing a fertility specialist. Several months after beginning fertility treatments I began seeing Shelby and Holly. Along with acupuncture I used the supplements and tinctures they recommended. After 6 months of seeing Shelby and Holly, we became pregnant. The cycle we became pregnant was also the first cycle of taking a break from medical fertility treatments. It was not a medically assisted conception. I believe the work I did with Shelby and Holly is what led to our pregnancy. I continued

Shelby and Common Ground Wellness are amazing. I would recommend them to anyone! In fact, I have recommended them to many people. I saw Shelby after struggling with infertility for 2 and a half years. I had medical interventions for almost two years and surgery to treat my endometriosis and we still had no luck. I saw Shelby for acupuncture and took the Chinese tinctures she suggested. I started with Shelby in May 2018 and was pregnant by August. Shelby was kind and understanding. She treated all of you. I had several stressors in my life at the time and looked forward to going to my appointments

I would like to think that we all know “the struggle is real” at times, and it can deplete us or our energy, hope, and all the light around us. My husband and I were on a wild fertility journey with no concrete reason for why things weren’t working out in our favor. Long story short, Shelby with Common Ground Wellness not only rekindled my joy but she brought years of experience, knowledge and comfort into each one of my appointments with her. Since my journey was not something I was ready to share with my family and friends at the time, I was beyond grateful to find out that her services
