Greta Luhar, L.Ac., M.Ac.
Greta received her Kinesiology degree from the University of Maryland in 2004 and then earned her Masters in Acupuncture from Tai Sophia Institute in 2008. She has maintained her private acupuncture practice since 2008 and has helped hundreds and hundreds of patients over the years. She works very closely with her patients to ensure that all their concerns are addressed and her goal is to have her patients feel 125% better than when they started. She really enjoys sitting down with her patients and listening to their stories, where they've been in their lives, and what has brought them to her at this time. She have always wanted a career in healthcare because she really is intrigued by how the body works. There really is an art to keeping the body in balance and free from pain and discomfort. When the body or mind hurts, it is a signal for help or rebalancing. Acupuncture is over 5,000 years old and remains effective in treating everything from headaches, back pain, digestive issues to depression, anxiety, and stress. Greta is still amazed that these tiny acupuncture needles can be so powerful. If you are ready to start treatments, she would love to hear all about you and see how we can keep you on a path of health and happiness. This is your journey to a healthy life and Greta is here to support you.
