Integrative Medicine Experts
Your Minneapolis Resource
At Stockheart, healing is not something we do to you—it’s something we cultivate with you. Our team of healers brings together diverse skills in chiropractic, functional medicine, acupuncture, craniosacral therapy, massage, and energy work. What unites us is not just our training, but the way we care: with presence, compassion, and respect for the body’s innate wisdom.
Each healer holds space for your story, listens deeply to what your body is saying, and offers gentle, effective tools to help you reconnect with resilience. We believe healing happens through relationship—between practitioner and patient, between body and spirit, between roots and heart.

They were honored to have a variety of specialty internship experiences over the past couple years, which have clarified their passion for supporting mental health and addiction recovery with acupuncture and herbs.
