The stately Scarlet Oak tree is the tree of the District of Columbia. Also called the black oak, red oak or Spanish oak, it is known for its brilliant autumn color. After spending 4 years on the West Coast, I missed the vibrant colors found on the East Coast in the fall and felt that the Scarlet Oak was the perfect representation for my new practice.

Acupuncture and herbal medicine are parts of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), dating back more than 2000 years. Treating complaints as varied as back pain, digestive issues, infertility, allergies and common colds, TCM treats patients holistically, evaluating every aspect of patients' lives, including their sleep, diet and emotions.

Functional Medicine is a patient-centered, systems based approach that focuses on identifying and addressing the root cause of disease. Instead of looking at each symptom as its own line of inquiry, functional medicine looks at the body systems behind those symptoms, seeking to restore balance at the deepest levels of the body.
Herbal medicine is equally important as acupuncture and in many cases, such as management of menopausal symptoms, can be the more important modality of the two. Chinese herbal medicine utilizes hundreds of herbs, including some as familiar as turmeric root, honeysuckle or chrysanthemum flower.

Jill is a wealth of knowledge with not only acupuncture, but also functional medicine. She takes her time to fully understand the whole picture of her patients' health in order to maximize results and solve underlying problems. She is kind, thorough, and wonderful to work with. Can't recommend highly enough!

I started work with Jill in the Spring of 2017. I was trying to get pregnant and a friend said acupuncture could help. Acupuncture did help, but working with Jill was good for the body, mind, and soul. She helped me with my daily stress, but also with nausea, vitamin, and food therapy during the pregnancy. Jill really takes the time to hear you and what you need. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

I feel like a new woman. I just finished Badwater 267...a virtual race where I had to run 267 miles in 16 days. I was a mess. After one acupuncture and cupping treatment with Jill, I feel fully recovered. She also helped release a chronic sacroiliac issue I’d been having. Have NOT felt this good in a long while. Thank you so much. I can’t recommend Jill enough.

I absolutely love Scarlet Oak! I began treatment in the spring of 2016 and I always look forward to every appointment. Jill is extremely easy to talk with, incredibly smart and she truly cares about all of her patients. I enjoyed my experience with Scarlet Oak so much that I encouraged my closest family and friends to make an appointment.
