Meet The Team
Thank you for taking the time to consider us as support on your wellness journey!
Every person has the innate capacity for wellness. When we see clients they often have a very good idea of what they are already doing well plus a strong awareness of what they would like to improve and how best for them to get there. Our purpose is to refine this path by offering a variety of care modalities. We are here to create a safe space offering a variety of techniques to bring out transformative momentum. Everyone is deserving of dignity and respect, their concerns are to be taken seriously, and a customized treatment plan created.
The body is always changing. Humans are marvelously adaptable creatures, but sometimes this can be our downfall when it leads to patterns of overwork and a lack of self care. It is important to take time to understand our needs as a physical being as well as the many roles we carry in life.
We support individuals and families with non-invasive therapies, traditional medicine, educational resources to empower clients advocacy and connection to other care providers aligned with their wellness goals.
Lennie Tschepik
Masters of Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture | Doula | Massage Therapist
Initially, my interest was focused on injury rehabilitation and chronic pain cases which I think everyone experiences and can often be easily remedied. As I began working with more pregnant clients it became clear how effective touch can be when other modes of care are contraindicated. This led to my training as a doula and ultimately beginning my studies as a student midwife. In an effort to deepen my massage training I began a traditional style apprenticeship in Tuina, a Chinese form of medical massage therapy. At the clinic I was able to witness how effective acupuncture and herbalism is and this led me to Austin TX for my masters in TCM. I hope to be able to offer the full spectrum of care in Traditional Chinese Medicine by fall 2025 after I complete my licensing exams.

Edith Murillo
Chinese Medicine & Acupuncture Student l Fire Keeper l Doula Shadow
Edith is a wonderful addition to the team! Though she is just beginning her journey as a birthworker, her extensive background in traditional healing sets her apart. Her work with Kalpulli Texas Quetzalcoatl includes land stewardship, preserving indigenous knowledge, and creating sustainable communities for all. She is beginning to shadow during births to gain experience and has a gifted set of hands when it comes to tuina massage. She will be completing her Masters of Chinese Medicine this year with a focus on reproductive health. Her bedside manner easily shows the depth of her heart, second only to a curious and analytical mind ready to discern correct care recommendations for clients.
