Our goal is to unveil the root cause of imbalance in your body and implement a personalized plan to attain sustainable relief.
Essence, known as Jing in Chinese medicine, is our root, our vitality. It’s what we are given at birth and our backbone throughout our lifetime — it’s what sustains us.
Essence is both acquired through genetics and impacted throughout our lifetime by the choices we make. The mission at Essence Studio is to nourish our individual essence, working to preserve this vital substance that is responsible for our basic constitution, reproductive capabilities and longevity, as well as implement positive mind-body changes to attain sustainable wellness.

Caroline is a board certified and licensed acupuncturist & herbalist
Caroline practices from an integrative lens, treating a wide variety of health concerns, with a dedicated passion for hormonal imbalances, menstrual irregularities, mental health, pain management and digestive disorders.
She was born and raised on the east coast and found her way to natural medicine on the west coast. Caroline earned her master’s degree, Summa Cum Laude, from Emperor’s College of Traditional Oriental Medicine in Santa Monica, CA.
Caroline realized the transformative impact of acupuncture and herbal medicine while struggling with chronic migraines and recurrent back and neck pain. Her patient approach is shaped by her personal passion for gentle, individualized and collaborative care. Caroline’s mission is not only to find the “why” behind our body’s dis-ease and disharmony, making connections unknown on the surface, but also implementing a personal plan for each patient to provide valuable tools that allow for preventative care. Her practice works to integrate the east and the west, bringing this ancient practice of healing to our modern communities.
