Acupuncturist/Somatic Therapy/Writer

Mary Ann Willoughby works with acupuncture, breath and guided movement as an entry point into the body/mind/heart connection. She has worked with children and adults for 25 years teaching movement to actors, youth and senior citizens. For the last two decades she began to incorporate various styles of acupuncture, somatic therapy and mediation into her clinical and spiritual practice. She studied at TriState College of Acupuncture and worked as a clinical supervisor and teacher for 10 years as well as assisting occupational therapists as a movement specialist.

In private practice her focus is on guiding the patient towards feeling a deeper awareness and connection to their own healing process. The recognition of a process that goes beyond quick fixes in order to allow fully the integration of the physical, psychological, and spiritual being, while creating a space for a soft open heart and strong stable back.

If we surrendered to earth’s intelligence we could rise up rooted like trees.

~Rainer Maria Rilke
