Providing transformation healing and the flourishing of spirit through all of life's stages and challenges with Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine.

Chinese Medicine is a complete medical system. It is designed to diagnose and treat the full spectrum of acute and chronic illnesses, spiritual emotional and physical. Many patients in the US and around the world are beginning to have their own direct experiences with this medicine. More and more practitioners are gaining the skills to provide a complete encounter. After completing my degree and going through licensure I searched and studied for the pieces of the medicine that were exuded from most Traditional Chinese Medicine school. I knew that what I had learned in order to fulfill licensing requirements was not enough for me to help people have the profound healing experiences I knew were possible. I have learned from some extraordinarily brilliant practitioners. I learned how to diagnose through the field of the heart with Thea Elijah. I learned pediatrics with Dr. Stephen Cowan. And I landed, through my own healing journey, with Classical Chinese Medicine. Ann Cecil Sterman (who now has her own online school ) became my acupuncturist and then very quickly she became my teacher. I then also studied with Jeffrey Yuen, her and many others’ teacher, the 88th generation Daoist priest and physician, who has opened Classical Chinese medicine teachings, that were once held by a single practitioner, to anyone who would like to learn. I’m astounded every day, truly, by what can happen and what healing can look like, through this medicine. Maybe you also know what I’m talking about.

Hi all, my name is Martha Oatis. I am an acupuncturist in Brooklyn, NYC, practicing Classical Chinese Medicine. I’m here to share the incredible depth Classical Chinese Medicine is capable of, to talk through questions that come up in my clinic and my life, and connect with you wherever you are on your journey.

Sitting where I sit when my patients rest. No patient on the table right now though! I’m just working up the courage to do some thinking out loud on videos as many of you do. Happy Sunday folks. 💛🙃

Introducing myself here because I have taken a long hiatus on social media. My name is Martha Oatis. I am a licensed acupuncturist working in my private practice in Brooklyn NY. I work mostly with the complement channels with acupuncture, and I also use other Chinese medicine modalities such as essential oils, herbal formulas, dietary therapy and meditation. I work with people of all ages including children and infants. I am a mama now, of a toddler, and as you can see here I was able to take this selfie in part because I was riding in the passenger seat and had both hands available! Hope everyone is having a good day. Xo Martha

Did you know I make custom perfumes as a prescription for self transformation and healing? This allows me to work with my remote clients in such a powerful way and allows people to get these beautiful custom blends to support their own intentions. It’s such a pleasure making something for .future today. 💚

Hi all, as you may have noticed already, I do not post often on Instagram or Facebook (for many reasons!). If you would like to stay informed about my acupuncture practice and my current thinking, please go to the link in my bio (or my website) and join my newsletter. I have some announcements forthcoming in the next week and moving forward my newsletter is the platform I’ll use to stay in touch with my people. Sending love.

After the sessions I did today with incredible and brace clients, I can confidently say I am doing distance treatments on Zoom for current as well as new patients. Sessions are an hour and involve a combination of energy work (medical wi gong), herbal or essential oil prescriptions if you so desire, and the alchemy of listening and practicing embodiment over distance. Thank you so much to those of you who were willing to dive in without knowing much about it beforehand! I can’t name names because all my work is confidential but I’m tagging you in my heart. Also thank you Zoom— what a fantastic platform

While many of you are close friends and already know way more about me than I would post on social media, I’m taking a moment to reintroduce myself. My name is Martha Oatis. I am a licensed acupuncturist based in New York City. I am also a poet. It has been my life mission to practice art and medicine and to make room for those practices to weave together.
*
I am licensed and trained in acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, and essential oils but I have been inspired over the last several years to focus mostly on acupuncture. I treat infants children teens and adults. Every day in my office, I am amazed and inspired by the deep wisdom and capacity for transformation that this medicine not only represents but facilitates.
*
I struggle with using social media as a platform for many reasons but for some reason something in me is urging me to write and post about this, urging me to not NOT share myself with you here.
*
From my very first encounter with acupuncture I fell in love with it. It was less the needles and more what happened because of the needles. In one of my first experiences I had a transcendent experience (have no idea which points were used or what the intention of the treatment was) in which my body became a pure ivory statue, as if I had been united with a deity. I had never experienced anything like it, but a part of my soul understood perfectly what had happened and that was my first step on this path of learning and working with this medicine.
*
I’m interested in the infinite potential of Chinese medicine, the yin/yang aspect that makes it both concrete and sublime, completely accessible and completely mysterious, both medical and spiritual, quick and slow, feminine and masculine. It brings me great joy and wonder each day to witness healing events, to continuously learn from my patients, and to be able to accompany people through both simple and complex challenges and stages of life.
*
I will be posting a bit more here this month, about my experiences with Chinese medicine, and answering questions you may have. DM me if there is anything you’re wanting to hear more about!

Reposting a zero’ed in version of post on Xmas goodies for sale in her beautyandwellness shop... my FLUFFER BUTTER, an intentionally simple but potent moisturizer for face and body, is included here. I’m so grateful to Jessa for selling it while I am busy in my clinic and too slow to keep up with mail orders. fluffer butter contains 3 ingredients: raw unrefined Shea butter, raw organic coconut oil and extra virgin olive oil. It’s whipped into a light fluffy consistency for easy application. Stable at room temperature, unless you live in a warm climate, in which case I recommend keeping in your fridge. Let me know if you have questions about it and go to online shop to get some!
