About Misty M. Reed, L.Ac.

In high school and college, I suffered greatly from migraines, allergies, and pain from IBS (irritable bowel syndrome). After discovering that Western medicine couldn’t treat the root cause of these issues (and would only recommend pain medication), I turned to acupuncture, Chinese medicine herbs, dietary and lifestyle changes, yoga, and massage. All of these things greatly helped, but I was amazed at how effective acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine were at improving my overall health.

During this time I was pursuing a B.S. in Nutrition at The University of Texas at Austin and decided I would help people by completing post-graduate work in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine. I naturally gravitated towards women’s health and realized I could provide help and support to women, especially those trying to conceive.

When I embarked upon my career as a reproductive acupuncturist, I became concerned about my own fertility and put myself on a healthy preconception plan 6 months prior to trying to conceive – and as a result became healthier and now have 2 amazing children to show for my efforts!

My optimal wellness and fertility plans use a combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Western Medicine knowledge, and recommended lifestyle changes to assist you with your wellness and reproductive goals.

I’ve been working as a licensed acupuncturist in the reproductive health and fertility field since 2010, and this first-hand experience has shown me repeatedly that patients greatly benefit from an integrative model of healthcare. This will continue to be my goal in providing patients with the best possible optimal hormonal health and acupuncture services.

In addition to offering acupuncture services at Austin Acupuncture Studio, I also offer health and fertility coaching to clients all over the world through my coaching business, Conceivable Coach, which you can check out here.
