Meet Lauren, Balance Founder

Hi, I’m Lauren — so glad you’re here! I created Balance Acupuncture to be a space where you feel truly seen, heard, and supported. That kind of care changed my life, and it’s what my whole team believes in, too.

Acupuncture is such an empowering medicine; it helps get to the root of what’s going on, so you can take back control of your health. I experienced that firsthand at age 19, when acupuncture helped me with my allergies and asthma, and it completely shifted how I see health and healing.

Your health journey is personal, and we’re here to support you every step of the way!

"Lauren has an attentive, caring and interested demeanor that echoes her talents in providing acupuncture and Chinese medicine. I always leave feeling lighter and revived. She is willing and able to do research and go above and beyond…she has helped me so much on my cancer journey! 🙏❤️"

"I have been receiving treatments from Dr. Naomi for around 1 year. My 1st issue (back pain) was completely eliminated after my 2nd treatment. I finally have the mobility required to play a full 18 holes of golf again! Her approach is gentle, straight forward and on point- it's easy to tell that this practice is deeply important to her."

"Seeing Tinsley for acupuncture is an amazing experience! I went to see her for support with seasonal skin issues and allergies. She has helped me with that and so much more. Through her listening and care, I leave treatment feeling not only relaxed with my allergy symptoms alleviated, but also energized and ready to take on the day. "

"Dr. Naomi is incredible. She really is a healer and I'm so grateful to have the opportunity to work with her. She is compassionate, listens to what I need and makes it a priority to help me to feel better + heal. I would give 10 stars if I could. Thank you, Dr. Naomi."

Summer R.
"I feel very at ease, safe, and heard with Lauren. She respects the body’s natural and inherent ability to heal itself and supports that process with her knowledge skills and experience! Plus she is relatable to me as a mom that owns her own business! Every session with her has shifted something in my body - my nervous system feels the difference!!!"

Diana M.
"I can't recommend Naomi enough as an acupuncturist! She has been an incredible support throughout my fertility journey, pregnancy, and even in inducing labor. Her extensive knowledge and expertise were evident from our first session. Naomi's intuition about my baby’s gender and when he would arrive was spot on, which added to the excitement of the experience."
