Sarah Snyder DACM has been with Six Branches for over 4 years! 🎉

Sarah is passionate about meeting people on their journey to optimal health and honoring each person’s unique history, experience, and goals to figure out the best plan for their care. Her focus include acute and chronic pain, allergic conditions, autoimmune disease, digestive issues, as well as supporting mental and emotional well-being. She is especially committed to trauma-informed and LGBTQ-affirming care.

As someone who has utilized many different health therapies along the conventional-to-alternative spectrum, Sarah understands the complexities of living with chronic health conditions. She appreciates how subtle therapies like acupuncture can create such dynamic shifts in long-standing and difficult-to-treat health issues.

Prior to becoming an acupuncturist, Sarah worked in integrative medicine research. She aims to support her patients in navigating the complex world of health and treatment options to find what works for their lives. She is eager to communicate and collaborate with other medical providers as part of an integrative team.

We are so grateful that Sarah is a part of our team!

This National Acupuncture & Herbal Medicine Day, we celebrate our medicine and all that it has to offer. We honor our teachers and those who fought to make this medicine more accessible in the west.

Most importantly, we celebrate that acupuncture is so much more than needles. We observe the body through a unique lens and an understanding of the body and how different systems are connected that no other practitioners have.

We use acupuncture, herbs, gua sha, cupping, moxibustion - all of these tools help us address your issue, but our understanding of HOW to use them comes from the patterns that we see through our whole system of Traditional East Asian Medicine. THAT is the true power of our medicine.

Our Story

Six Branches Family Acupuncture offers a holistic approach to healthcare for people of all ages. Appointments at Six Branches Family Acupuncture may include acupuncture, massage, cupping, moxabustion, and/or custom herbal consultations.

WHY SIX BRANCHES?

“Six Branches” refers to the idea of six major acupuncture meridians branching throughout the body like limbs of a strong tree. In traditional acupuncture, the meridians are thought of as pathways in the body for the movement of ‘Qi’. We don’t completely understand this phenomenon in modern scientific thinking but there have been studies that have shown higher electrical conductance through the fascia along the meridian pathways.
