Erin Stoneburner, L.Ac.
Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine
My lifelong interest in alternative medicine led me from the mountains of Idaho to Portland, Oregon to pursue the study Chinese medicine following my mother’s breast cancer diagnosis. Witnessing the profound role that acupuncture, and herbal medicine played in her successful treatment and recovery solidified my commitment to this ancient and powerful healing practice.
During my academic training and post-graduation, I had the privilege of working for a decade under renowned herbalist Heiner Fruehauf, gaining extensive experience in classical Chinese herbalism, acupuncture, and immersion int eh Jinjing Gong tradition of Qigong. My understanding and love for this medicine deepened even further when I faced my own healing challenge -- a car accident that left me with multiple spinal fractures. Throughout my recovery, I relied extensively on acupuncture and Chinese herbs, ultimately regaining full health and vitality.
With over 20 years of clinical experience, I remain deeply dedicated to the practice of Chinese medicine. My passion for this beautiful medicine is strong and ever expanding. My treatments integrate acupuncture, essential oils, herbal remedies, lifestyle recommendations and nutritional counseling to support each patient’s unique path to wellness. I am continually inspired by the profound impact of this medicine in fostering both physical health and emotional well-being.
In my leisure time I find joy in the natural beauties of the Pacific Northwest, where I can often be found exploring the coast, rivers and mountains with my sweet and silly puppy Fiona. When not adventuring off the beaten path, I keep my hands in the dirt lovingly tending my biodynamic gardens to keep my kitchen stocked with fresh produce.
