"When you touch one thing with deep awareness,
you touch everything." - Lao Tzu
The Language of Touch
Dr. Jamil Smith, DACM, L.Ac
My journey towards self-healing and wholeness began in Richmond, Virginia where as a child I spent countless hours being outdoors, engaging with nature in an attempt to remember my purpose in life. My curiosity about life eventually led me to move to New York City and enroll at Pacific College where I earned my Doctorate degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine. I previously obtained my Bachelor’s degree in Business Finance from Morehouse College in Atlanta, GA.
As a licensed acupuncturist and nationally certified herbalist, my work includes collaborating with people to resolve a wide range of health challenges -- including anxiety, emotional stress, PTSD, digestive imbalances, fertility and libido challenges, gender transition therapy, thyroid imbalances, reproductive difficulties, sports injury rehabilitation and orthopedic disorders.
Acupuncturist + Herbalist
My focus is to deepen my understanding of the ways in which I relate to myself, with others and with the world. My exploration as an entrepreneur, photographer, community builder, traveler and lifelong student has helped to cultivate my skills as a practitioner. Using the art of acupuncture and herbology as my tools, I gently guide, nudge and aid one’s body and mind to find its own equilibrium. From there, the intelligence of the body knows what to do next. This is what the healing process has taught me. I see myself as a tuning fork for my clients – my collaborators.
I am here to hold space. My role is to aid you in your return to inner harmony, emotional, physical and spiritual well-being, in-tune with our true nature so that we can realize our destinies, uninhibited.
Let our journey together commence.
