You've Done Everything Right But Still Don't Feel Right

You've Done Everything Right But Still Don't Feel RightYou've Done Everything Right But Still Don't Feel RightYou've Done Everything Right But Still Don't Feel Right


If you know something feels off and you’re ready to understand why — you’re in the right place.


Get Started

When your Symptoms Don’t Make Sense You Need Care That Does

I offer acupuncture and terrain-based care for those who are ready to commit.  

You've tried to feel better but still feel tired, inflamed, or stuck.


I help the body regulate, restore, and repair itself more effectively, especially when the usual approaches haven’t worked. You get better energy, less pain, less stress.

Pivotal's Purpose

The Mission

The Commitment

The Mission

Make health feel clear, personal, and manageable.


At Pivotal, Dr. Julie’s mission is to help people understand what their body actually needs — without confusion, overwhelm, or one-size-fits-all advice. In a world full of conflicting health information, clarity becomes care.


Through a thoughtful blend of acupuncture and functional medicine, Dr. Julie focuses on uncovering the patterns beneath symptoms and translating them into practical, understandable steps. Care is individualized, rooted in physiology, and shaped around the whole person — not just a diagnosis or lab value.


The goal isn’t perfection or constant optimization.
It’s steadier energy, fewer flares, better recovery, and a body that feels easier to live in.

The Vision

The Commitment

The Mission

Build bodies that can tolerate modern life — and recover from it — with resilience, clarity, and strength.


Dr. Julie’s vision is healthcare that strengthens the body’s ability to tolerate modern life and recover from it - without unnecessary surgeries or pharmaceuticals. In a world that constantly asks more of our nervous systems, hormones, immune function, and metabolism, true health is the capacity to stay steady, adaptable, and responsive over time. 


At Pivotal, care is focused on restoring that capacity — so energy holds, symptoms quiet, and the body becomes less reactive and more resilient, even when life doesn’t slow down.


Health today isn’t about avoiding stress — it’s about having the resilience to meet it.

The Commitment

The Commitment

The Commitment

Offer steady care that doesn’t disappear when healing takes time.


At Pivotal, your care is a true partnership. Healing is rarely linear, and progress often includes periods of adjustments and setbacks as the body learns to recover and regulate more effectively. 


Dr. Julie is committed to walking alongside you through this process with clarity, open communication, and thoughtful guidance. Care is individualized, never rushed, and grounded in safety, trust, and respect for your experience. 


The goal is not just temporary relief, but steady, meaningful progress toward a body that feels stronger, more resilient, and easier to live in over time.
