More about Samantha Hodges, LAc

Hello! Iam Samantha, your acupuncturist. In 2013, | received a Master's of Science in Traditional Chinese Medicine from the American College of Tradtional Chinese Medicine (ACTCM). While completing my master's, | studied a variety of massage. modaiiies and became certified in cui nz. In the picture to the lef, | am with Dr. Li, my translator, and another international student from Singapore at the Second Affiliated Hospital at Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine in Guangzhou China. | completed the last clinical hours of my doctorate here in December 2019. I compete in trail runs, triathlons, and equestrian sports. In graduate school, while competing, | suffered some common sports injuries and was treated at the student clinic. It blew me away how drastically the pain was reduced and how the healing time was nearly cut in half with acupuncture. This was one of many moments | had in school where | fell deeply in love with Chinese. medicine. | witnessed phenomenal results while inteming at CPMC Stroke Clinic. Acupuncture helped those recovering from a stroke, traumatic brain injury. and other ebiiitating injuries. Abeloved friendimentor of mine always fold me, “Prevention is cheaper than the cure.” | take this to heart in educating and treating my. patients. | helped them work thru injury and avoid invasive cortisone shots, pain medications, and surgery. Lifestyle modifications play a huge role in overcoming dis-ease. I use an integrative approach. | practice functional medicine and order a variety of tests such as complete blood panels, female: hormones, heavy metals, leaky gut, and whatever test | feel wil best help us make a treatment plan. | keep up to date with recent peer- reviewed studies and wil be a student forever. | realize there is no “one size fits all” treatment plan. | take my time with my patients and ‘do my best to treat their dis-ease and prevent it from retuming. look forward to meeting you! In good health, Dr. Sam
