California & Nationally Licensed Acupuncturist & Herbalist

Doctor of Traditional Chinese Medicine (DTCM)

Yogic Practitioner

I appreciate the holistic philosophy of Asian medicine, particularly its emphasis on personalized treatment that harmonizes individuals with their unique environment and inherent constitution. My extensive studies and international experiences, along with ongoing mentorship from distinguished practitioners, have significantly shaped my approach to the medicine.

Dr. Aruna Peters holds a Professional Doctorate in Traditional Chinese Medicine from Five Branches University, and is licensed to practice acupuncture and herbal medicine nationally. She is also a long time practitioner and instructor of the Yogic Sciences which deeply guides her philosophy and approach to treatment. 

Dr. Peters incorporates Fang-style scalp acupuncture into her practice, an advanced technique she learned under the direct mentorship of renowned practitioner Dr. Ching Ching Chi. This technique is highly effective in supporting a range of internal medical conditions, regulating the nervous system, treatment and management of neurological conditions, and addressing acute and chronic pain. Her other specialties include support for mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, stress, and addiction, women’s health - including sexual health concerns, digestion (notably in the form of food as medicine), preventative medicine and techniques of movement, breathwork and meditation.
