Background
Marilyn Jackson, DACM, L.Ac., Dipl.OM is a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, based in Connecticut. She opened her private practice in Los Angeles in 2018 with a mission to help people with the power of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM).
Marilyn completed an intensive 4-year Master’s training program at Emperor’s College in Southern California, followed by a Doctoral program through Pacific College of Health and Sciences.
Her training required hundreds of hands-on clinical hours treating patients, including rotations at the Roy and Patricia Family Cancer Center at Providence Saint Joseph Medical Center in Burbank working with patients undergoing cancer treatment.
Early on in her graduate education, Marilyn knew she wanted to focus on women’s healthcare once she saw how powerful an effect TCM had on common female ailments like symptoms of PMS, irregular cycles, fertility, and symptoms associated with menopause. She studied under women’s health specialists in her clinical rotations, treating a variety of complex conditions. Once in private practice, Marilyn is grateful to have worked alongside some of the top women’s health experts and acupuncturists in Los Angeles.
In 2020 when the world changed, Marilyn started working with patients remotely, learning that the benefits of TCM could be achieved successfully outside of the traditional office setting. She moved to Connecticut with her family where she now treats patients locally and continues to offer remote options to patients everywhere.
My Approach
My approach is to listen, first and foremost, because no one knows your body better than you. From there, each treatment is tailored to meet you where you are at every session, based on our discussion and my diagnostic techniques.
The holistic nature of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) is to treat the whole person and to address the root cause of symptoms. I do this by using time-tested traditional methods that are backed by scientific research.
I hope to instill in my patients a sense of joy in prioritizing health and wellness by learning to tune into the body’s queues, enjoy delicious nourishing foods, and make mindful, good-for-you choices that help you feel great and allow you to live life to the fullest.
