White Magnolia Acupuncture and Tai Chi White Magnolia Acupuncture and Tai Chi in Berkeley, California

A licensed acupuncturist and herbalist in the state of California, a nationally certified Diplomate, and a licensed clinical social worker, clinic founder John Luna-Sparks is also the director of White Magnolia’s Tai Chi school. He was inspired to enter the field of Chinese medicine after suffering a debilitating neck injury that left him bedridden for four months. With acupuncture and Tai Chi he was able to avoid surgery, come off painkillers and antidepressants, and resume his life again. John graduated in 2015 from the Academy of Chinese Culture and Health Sciences in Oakland, California, with a master’s degree in traditional Chinese medicine. “I wanted to help other people in pain see that there are time- honored avenues that really work,” he says. “Sometimes we need to remove barriers that get in the way of natural healing.”

John and his associate Dr. Zoe Linton’s flourishing practice is well-known for its focus on sports and mental health acupuncture.

Honoring a Legacy 🕊️
This week, we gathered to celebrate our school’s founder, Dr. Miriam Marsolais, as she transitions from teaching Tai Chi. One former student and instructor put it best:
“I will be forever grateful for all that she taught me regarding Tai Chi, but also how noble and dignified her life is—a sterling example for all of us.”
Miriam, we bow to you with deep gratitude.
May we continue to carry the tradition forward with the same spirit, depth, and dignity you’ve shared so generously.
