Eva Larson, L.Ac. is a California board certified acupuncturist and herbalist with over 10 years clinical experience. She has specialized advanced training in several areas of health and wellness including nutrition, digestive disorders, pain management and women’s health. She is passionate about nutrition, exercise, cooking and human biology. She uses acupuncture, herbal medicine and whole food nutritional therapy to solve complex health problems that often seem hopeless. It’s important to Eva to be valued by her community as an established, effective resource and an integral part of your healthcare team to help you achieve your goals.
She is warm and non-judgmental and willing to meet you where you are. She loves working with people who are motivated to make changes, committed to the process and prioritize their health and wellness so that together we can uncover and correct the source of what is bothering them.
Eva studied Traditional Chinese Medicine at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in San Diego and graduated in 2007 with a Masters of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine (MSTOM). She was drawn to acupuncture after suffering with eczema for much of her life and finding little to no relief through western medicine. After just a few acupuncture treatments, herbal therapies, and recommended lifestyle changes, her eczema symptoms largely vanished and she began to explore everything else alternative medicine has to offer.
When not in the clinic Eva can be found swimming in the bay, jogging the streets of Alameda, curled up with a book but more often than not, in the kitchen
