Elizabeth Fuqua, L.Ac.

Elizabeth is a Nationally Board Certified and state certified acupuncturist licensed by the Virginia Board of Medicine. Elizabeth is a graduate of the Colorado School of Traditional Chinese Medicine’s Master of Science Degree in Acupuncture (M.S.Ac.) program.

As a permanently curious lifelong learner, Elizabeth is interested in exploring the intersections between traditional healing modalities and our modern understanding of anatomy and physiology. She was drawn to the Chinese Medical Theory approach because it treats the whole person, seeing everything as affecting everything, rather than viewing the body in a compartmentalized, myopic way. She focuses on the mind-body connection in seeking to resolve chronic and acute pain, stress, sleep problems, and digestive disorders, among others.   

In addition to acupuncture and adjunct modalities including cupping, guasha, shiatsu and moxibustion, Elizabeth’s sessions offer movement-based therapies, nutrition counseling and lifestyle advice to empower her clients on their health journey beyond the treatment room. She truly believes acupuncture can help everyone, no matter where they are in life, and considers it an honor to make a difference in someone’s health and instill lifelong change for the better.

Elizabeth has over a decade of experience helping to bring bodies into balance including her work as a Certified Yoga Instructor. Elizabeth also holds a BFA in Communication Arts from Virginia Commonwealth University and has worked as a graphic and web designer since 2012. Elizabeth lives in Richmond, Virginia with her husband, daughter, and two dogs.
