North Branch Meeting Roomwith Dr. Aisha Julia Lee of South Bay Internal Healing
Acupuncture is a branch within the vast field of Chinese medicine, and is based on a very different worldview than that of Western science and medicine. Thousands of years after the formation of the Chinese meridian system, acupuncture is still actively in use during our modern times. Join Dr. Lee for an informative talk on acupuncture and Chinese medicine.
Dr. Lee practices internal healing in Santa Clara, which focuses on healing the root of internal medicine diseases. There is an emphasis on meditation and inner work in Dr. Lee's approach. In her work with clients, Dr. Lee integrates knowledge of the meridian system with modern medicine and science.
Dr. Lee grew up in the South Bay, received a B.S. in Chemical Biology from UC Berkeley, and worked in biotech research for a few years prior to pursuing medical training. Dr. Lee graduated from UC San Diego with an MBA and completed her doctoral degree in Chinese medicine at California Institute of Integral Studies. She spent 20+ years researching and practicing medicine at the intersection of science, spirituality, and healing.
