Anne Carruth, a licensed acupuncturist since 2008, integrates her expertise in acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine with a solid foundation in the biological sciences, and a deep commitment to patient care. Her love of Chinese medicine stems from its emphasis on preventative care and its holistic view of the mind, body, and spirit. She embraces the traditional Chinese model of addressing both one’s symptoms and their underlying causes, enabling her to treat a wide variety of health concerns, ranging from acute pain to the common cold.
Anne specializes in aesthetic acupuncture and holistic skincare. Her personal experiences with acne, scarring, discoloration, and aging skin have honed her skills and informed her treatment approach.

Her unique approach of blending traditional acupuncture techniques with science-backed aesthetic treatments delivers profound, natural results.
In addition to her work in aesthetics, Anne is passionate about pain relief. As an exercise junkie and outdoor enthusiast, she understands the impact of injuries firsthand. She has extensive training in sports medicine acupuncture and orthopedics and continually refines her approaches to physical trauma and pain management. Whether your pain stems from an auto accident, sports injury, cancer, overuse, or an unknown cause, Anne enjoys navigating the body’s complexities to identify and address the root of the issue.
Anne’s gentle needling technique and compassionate approach make her an ideal practitioner for sensitive patients and those new to acupuncture. Her extensive training and clinical experience enable her to tackle the most difficult of cases with confidence and sensitivity.
When she’s not treating patients, Anne enjoys biking, surfing, pilates, concerts, and adventuring with her husband and two dogs.
