We’re so excited to welcome Mackenzie Thoma, LMT to Roots Acupuncture & Apothecary! Mackenzie is a licensed massage therapist who specializes in lymphatic drainage massage—a gentle, restorative therapy that supports your body’s natural healing process.

So what is lymphatic drainage?
🤔Your lymphatic system is like your body’s built-in cleansing and detox network. When it becomes sluggish or blocked, you may experience swelling, fatigue, lowered immunity, or slower healing. Lymphatic drainage massage uses light, rhythmic techniques to help your body flush toxins, reduce swelling, and restore balance.

✨ It may be especially helpful for those managing:
• Diabetes
• Cancer (before, during, or after treatment)
• Post-surgical or injury-related swelling
• Chronic pain
• Autoimmune conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis
• Stress and lowered immunity
• Sinus problems
• Skin conditions including acne, eczema, and psoriasis• Digestive issues
• Hormonal imbalances and fertility support
• Asthma
• Kidney disease
• Lymphedema

Whether you’re managing a health condition, supporting fertility, or simply looking for deep, gentle self-care—Mackenzie’s work can make a big difference.

This lid brought me right back to my childhood growing up by the beach 🌊. A little exercise and a dose of salt water really were our cure-alls recommended by my mom — whether it was a swim, a long run, or just letting the ocean heal whatever was heavy.

Of course, I’d add a few more to this list now: positive thoughts, a healthy diet, and of course… acupuncture ✨. But I have to admit — there’s a lot of truth in this cap!

What’s your go-to cure when you need a reset? 💙

Does acupuncture hurt? It’s a question we get all of the time. The answer is usually no, but it honestly depends on the style of acupuncture you receive! Dr. Kelly has studied many different styles of needling and incorporates different techniques when necessary, but most of the time you will find her using a Japanese approach - which is extremely comfortable. Japanese acupuncture uses thinner needles and places a priority on palpation and pinpointing (no pun intended) the exact location on the acupoint, which is usually pain free and extremely effective. Most patients experience a deep relaxation on the table.
