Caroline Strassberg
Studio owner and Acupuncturist
Caroline has been treating patients since 2010 and specializes in orthopedics and pain management as well as nervous system mediated conditions. She has a trained eye to see the body as a whole and the complex way in which a symptom is not, and should not be, the only target of treatment. She is able to identify vulnerabilities and assist clients in preventing future injury using both Chinese medicine and movement. She has learned that the human experience of pain and posture are multifaceted and involve not only our bones and muscles, but also our nervous system, sense organs, respiratory system, emotions and thought patterns.
She works with children and adults -for more information about Caroline’s Chinese medicine practice go to the acupuncture page.
Caroline is a lover of many forms of movement, especially dance, contact improvisation, qi gong, martial arts and Crossfit. She studied a number of different Chinese martial arts forms from 2003-2018 and since 2021 she has trained with Jozef Frucek and Linda Kapetanea of Fighting Monkey [www.fightingmonkey.net]. She found this post-modern synthesis of traditional forms, improvisational dance, agility and coordination and communication training to be both revolutionary and life changing.
Caroline especially enjoys working with children who dance without training and play without being asked. She believes that it is through moving, creating and playing that we best learn about ourselves.
