Jalashree Pradhan, L.Ac., MS
Licensed Acupuncturist and Chinese Medicine Herbalist
I am a licensed Acupuncturist and practitioner of Chinese Herbal Medicine. It is an honor and privilege to practice this beautiful and vast medicine. I received my Masters of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1998 from the American College of Traditional Chinese Medicine in San Francisco. I am board certified by the National Certification Commission of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and am licensed by the Minnesota Board of Medical Practice.
A lifelong learner, I bring both a broad and deep approach to a variety of health issues - from pain, women’s health, mental health and geriatric care to fertility, as well as pre and post-natal care. I am passionate in the promotion of holistic preventative health. I have advanced training in gynecological/reproductive health and am also a practitioner of Chinese Medical massage (Tui Na), Facial Gua Sha massage, Holistic Microneedling, breath-work, and Reiki, which I incorporate along with acupuncture, herbal medicine, dietary and lifestyle counseling.
I was raised in a Nepali American household. My deep cultural understanding of the importance of Being over Doing, and a generosity of spirit to promote human flourishing underlies all my clinical knowledge and is the unique quality I bring to my care. My practice is an extension of my kitchen table where, through beautiful, simply prepared meals, I foster love and healing to family and friends (and the occasional patient) from my South Minneapolis home.
Along with my clinical expertise, I bring to my practice a deeply intuitive, open-hearted, and gentle approach that encourages your unique potential for self-healing. My passion is to explore, in partnership with you, the possibilities for sustainable health.
