Melissa Pulicicchio
Licensed Acupuncturist and Hebalist

With over 20 years of dedication to integrative healing, I have guided countless individuals on their journeys toward health, balance, and resilience. My work blends deep academic training with decades of clinical experience, offering a holistic path to wellness rooted in both modern psychology and ancient healing traditions.


I hold a Master’s Degree in Chinese Medicine, completed through studies in both Brazil and the USA, and bring a global perspective to my practice. My academic foundation also includes a degree in Psychology (Brazil, 2005) and a specialization in Ayurvedic Medicine (India, 2014). This diverse background allows me to connect with people at the intersection of mind, body, and spirit.


For more than a decade, I have specialized in supporting patients with chronic conditions, helping them reclaim vitality and live their fullest lives. My approach to acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is comprehensive, drawing on the full range of modalities, including:

  • Herbal medicine
  • Acupuncture
  • Cupping therapy
  • Moxibustion (Moxa)
  • And other traditional techniques

Each treatment plan is personalized to meet the unique needs of the individual, honoring the wisdom of traditional practices while responding to modern challenges.
