Dr. Danielle began to study energy medicine after watching loved ones suffer from cancer. She had one key question: Why is Western medicine not as effective healing disease? This led her to pursue energy medicine with Reiki. After learning the fundamentals of how energy works in the human body, she experienced acupuncture for the first time and found that it was like Reiki – but even more effective. This led her to a passionate study of acupuncture and becoming a Doctor of Chinese Medicine. Collaboration is key and she built Attunement Wellness with the idea together is better.
