Practitioners

That’s when Monica discovered acupuncture. Drawn to its incredible ability to support the body in managing stress and restoring balance, she decided to shift her focus and expand her ability to care for others. She enrolled at Won Institute of Graduate Studies, where she completed her master’s degree in acupuncture in August 2024.

During her time at Won, she had the privilege of interning at the Won Institute Student Acupuncture Clinic and the Tui Na Manual Therapy Clinic. She also provided community care at the Stephen Klein Wellness Center and the Veterans Multi-Service Center in Philadelphia—experiences that deepened her appreciation for acupuncture’s role in supporting overall wellness. Additionally, she pursued her NADA detoxification specialist certification at the New York Harm Reduction Clinic, further expanding her ability to serve those in need. As a Won Student Ambassador, she loved sharing her passion by promoting the Institute to prospective students, patients, and the local community.

Now, she practices in the Philadelphia suburbs, where she uses acupuncture, electrostimulation, cupping, tuina, moxibustion, and guasha to help her patients relieve pain, reduce stress, and restore their energy. While she treats a variety of conditions, she has a special interest in musculoskeletal disorders, stress, anxiety, and depression. She is also a proud member of the Association for Professional Acupuncture in Pennsylvania, the Young Acupuncturist Association of America, and Acupuncturists Without Borders.

At the heart of her practice is a deep commitment to helping people feel their bes —physically, mentally, and emotionally. She is honored to walk alongside her patients on their healing journeys, providing compassionate care every step of the way.
