Lindsey Wilder Flatt's life-long interest in herbs and alternative healing modalities led her to take several courses from the Wildflower School of Botanical Medicine before she ultimately chose to pursue a career in acupuncture. During the course of school at AOMA, she developed an interest in the traditional Asian Bodywork modality of Tuina, and pursued AOBTA certification in this bodywork style that uses the healing power of touch, combined with stretching, and manipulation of the points and meridians of Chinese acupuncture. She is also reiki certified, and a Certified Cupping Therapist (CCT).
