About me

Hi, I am Nevin Turk and I am so glad you are here.

I am a Virginia Board of Medicine and Nationally Certified Licensed Acupuncturist, with a Master of Acupuncture degree from the Virginia University of Integrative Medicine. Prior to that I have a unique blend of over 20 years of corporate life and teaching yoga, qigong and mindfulness meditation on a part-time basis since 2013. 

I am both an active acupuncturist clinician and offering movement classes and assist in personal development through IFS based coaching and instruction in mindfulness practices. Passionate about encouraging healing from both physical and mental-emotional perspectives, I strongly believe that we can enhance our overall well-being by combining modern and ancient systems of knowledge.
