When stress is too high, sleep is too little, or what we eat and drink is out of sync with our body's needs, our internal systems become out of balance. In comes disease, pain, and "I can't take this anymore". The key to re-balancing the body is finding and treating THE ROOT of the problem, which is unique to you, instead of just addressing your symptoms with a one-size-fits-all protocol that has become the norm.
Acupuncture, Chinese Herbs, Cupping, Gua sha, and Ancient Food Therapy can help! I go regularly for cupping and acupuncture, and Jackie brings such light and energy to our sessions. She listens to my concerns and custom tailors each visit. I won't go anywhere else for acupuncture!

Jackie is a Board-Certified Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbalist and licensed by the state of Louisiana's Medical Board. She graduated from AOMA School of Integrative Medicine where she completed over 3,000 hours of intense didactic and clinical training.

One-on-one acupuncture sessions will start with a Q&A session about your chief complaint and an in-depth personal health history. Your practitioner will use this information to form a treatment plan that will address both your chief complaint and a possible root cause for the imbalance. Single-use needles that are thinner than a human hair are inserted and retained as you relax quietly or even fall asleep.
Acupuncture is most effective when appointments are made in close succession. While many patients do see a shift in their condition after just a few treatments, more are usually necessary when treating long-standing, chronic problems. At the start of each session, we will evaluate your progress and decide what is best for you moving forward.
Microneedling is a medical grade skincare treatment which uses your skin's natural ability to regenerate healthier, smoother skin by stimulating collagen and elastin production while increasing the skin's ability to absorb hydrating serums (with Chinese herbs) by 2000%. This treatment may help to reduce wrinkles, scars, and age spots and promote a long-lasting regeneration of smoother, firmer and healthier looking skin.

Jackie is wonderful! She is very knowledgeable, attentive, and caring. I have had acupuncture, cupping, and microneedling done at Hidden Root. Each treatment has left me feeling amazing afterwards! I recently tried microneedling for the first time and I highly recommend. Jackie was very gentle and took plenty of time to explain the treatment/answer all of my questions. A few weeks after the treatment, I noticed more glowing skin and less pronounced wrinkles. I have recommended Jackie to several people, and everyone always has such great things to say about their experiences here!

Wonderful service, as always. Really love Jackie's friendly and knowledgable approach. Her new location is beautiful and peaceful - perfect for an afternoon acupuncture session. Jackie takes the time to really listen to your concerns (each and every time she meets with you). Overall, highly recommend.

Jackie is so calm and lovely! Obviously has the training and experience to help so many through acupuncture and cupping. She really listens to you and tailors your session to your needs. The space is serene and beautiful! I booked a session for my boyfriend as a birthday gift and will now be going to her as well!

Jackie is incredible. What I love and appreciate most about her in the last maybe 6 weeks now I’ve been going (weekly) is how attentive she is to your needs.
She asks questions, takes notes and places each needle with the intention to aid with everything you discuss. The herbs she’s recommended have done wonders for me.
I’m grateful for her expertise and will continue going because Traditional Chinese Medicine is the TRUTH!

I had never done acupuncture before seeing Jackie at Hidden Root. I had always wanted to try it for upper back/shoulder and neck pain stemming from 2 car accidents. After reading her website and seeing the ways acupuncture can help with numerous conditions, I booked an appointment (very easy to do on the site). Her office is tucked away downtown on Lafayette (street parking is easy to find; pay lot right across Lafayette), and I must say it is such a warm and comfortable space. Jackie makes you feel at ease immediately and really listens to your concerns. The cupping treatment that starts every

I went to Jackie for my first ever cupping therapy and was very pleased with the experience! She is knowledgeable, professional, kind and puts you at ease through the process. I received an email and text reminder prior to my session that explained everything to expect and made the process very easy for a new client. I've tried lots to address my back pain- from chiropractors to massages and was eager to try something new. I found the cupping therapy to be very relaxing and could feel that I had better circulation and less tension the next day. Jackie is wonderful and I would definitely recommend

Jackie is a knowledgeable and thoughtful practitioner who honors your comfort and health with great care and ease. When I arrived one Friday morning, I was experiencing plenty of emotions from my personal life and she professionally and compassionately held space for me, and let that guide the treatment. She asks great questions about digestion and habits and helped me have a better idea of my constitution. Jackie’s presence is so sweet and warm, she really makes sure you get the most out of your treatment. You’ll leave restored and with more tools for your care for yourself.

Visiting a friend who has chronic pain and encouraged him to come with me. Jackie used acupuncture and cupping on us both, relieving his neck pain and my back pain. If you're in NOLA for business or pleasure, or happen to live here, please give this new business owner a try. Wonderful technical and personal skills in a beautifully decorated office!
