The Ojo Caliente Wellness Center is the holistic medical practice of Dr. Caterina Di Palma, Doctor of Oriental Medicine. Its purpose is to help you feel better while building resilience, flexibility, balance, wellness, and to deepen your insight about your health. We do this through the wisdom, knowledge, and hands-on practices of Oriental medicine, using acupuncture, massage, herbs, and alignment of energy.
We also provide lifestyle, movement, food and nutritional advice. We work to bring you greater balance, contentment, and deeper connection to spirit. Every treatment ends with a limpia espiritual, a spiritual clearing or cleansing of the indigenous Mexican curanderismo tradition. It helps you heal by lightening your emotional and spiritual load and by removing what you no longer need.
