• Check-In •

Happy fall everyone! There have been a lot of changes happening behind scenes here at the Peoples Acupuncture of Asheville. Here are some updates:

This month we bid fare well to Jennifer Jackson. She has been holding down Sundays and taking good care of everyone for a while now. We are sad to see her go and wish her the best in all her future endeavors.

Aimée will be stepping down on Wednesdays and will be on shift at the clinic on Mondays and Thursdays. Our new schedule is posted at the end of this newsletter.

Welcome Courtney Kelly! Kelly will be joining our team taking over on Sundays and also Wednesdays. We have full confidence that Courtney will be a wonderful addition and we can’t wait for her to join. Her first shifts will be on Sunday October 19th and Wednesday October 22nd.

• Courtney Kelly •

Courtney (she/they) is a licensed acupuncturist and herbalist hailing from Gainesville, FL, where they earned their Master of Acupuncture degree from The Academy of Five Element Acupuncture.

They are deeply committed to community acupuncture as a practice rooted in justice, accessibility, and care. Guided by the principles of Liberation Acupuncture, they believe that this medicine is most effective when it removes barriers to care, prioritizes those most affected by systemic inequities, and supports holistic well-being. In addition to working at the clinic, Courtney is also a writer and science communicator, working to disseminate evidence-based mental health research.

When not working, reading, or writing, Courtney can usually be found hiking somewhere in Pisgah Forest with their dog, Arrow.
