Angela Read L.Ac.


I am a board-certified and licensed Acupuncturist (LAc) and hold a Master of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (MAcOM). My practice is located in the beautiful Paxson Yoga Center located in Portland, OR. After 15 years of practice, it is still a joy and passion for me to help support my patients in their wellness goals and to find optimal health.


 
 

My practice is primarily focused on pain management, women’s health & fertility, stress, and autoimmune conditions. The beauty of this medicine is that it helps with so many ailments by getting to the root of the disease which is effective for the treatment of virtually any type of medical issue.

My technique is gentle, precise, and effective. Using needles, essential oils, gua sha, cupping, moxibustion, and other techniques, the tools of Chinese Medicine are versatile and complementary. You can learn more about these modalities here.

My calling has always been to be a healer, a collaborator and one who guides others into a new place of well-being. It is an honor to do what I love and help people feel their best. In between seeing my wonderful patients, I enjoy long walks, yoga, tending to my garden, and spending time with my family in nature.
