Meghan Ewing LAC, MSOM
Meghan was fortunate to grow up in an environment and household that had a great appreciation for the planet, its wild spaces and living things. She watched the stars, spent time outdoors and became a lover of nature. Meghan has a deep fascination for the mysteries of the universe and constantly seeks a deeper understanding.

She believes completely in the ability of the medicine to enhance the lives of her patients, helping them attain a more optimal state of health. Through careful diagnostic methods, attention and care, Meghan aims to discover the root of imbalance in the body that leads to discomfort and disease.
