When people ask me what kind of practice Anew is, the honest answer is: it depends on who’s asking. Some of my patients first came to me with back pain. Others came because anxiety was keeping them up at night, because hot flashes wouldn’t let them sleep, or because they wanted support during cancer treatment. Every one of them is right. Anew is a whole-person practice, and I built it that way on purpose.
To me, treating the whole person doesn’t mean doing everything for everyone. It means listening, looking at how your body, your mind and your daily life affect each other, and building your care around you. Here’s what that looks like in my practice.
Pain & Recovery
Pain is one of the most common reasons people find me: back, neck and joint pain, recovery after an injury, and healing after surgery. I also do post-surgical scar therapy, which can help scar tissue feel and move better.
Some patients need more than pain relief. They need to trust their body again. That’s why I offer Clinical Pilates through Anew Integrated Movement: one-on-one sessions on the Pilates apparatus, designed for life after physical therapy, injury recovery and special populations. Acupuncture calms the body; movement teaches it to work well again.
Stress & Mental Health
About a quarter of the people I see come in for anxiety, stress, poor sleep or that feeling of running on empty. Acupuncture gives your nervous system a chance to settle. So many patients have told me their treatment hour is the calmest part of their week, and that the calm stays with them after they leave.
Allergy Care
Allergies bring a lot of people through my door, including many people living with alpha-gal syndrome. My allergy care uses a specialized ear-based acupuncture approach, and how many visits you need depends on you. You can learn more on my allergy care page.
Women’s Health
Women’s health covers a lot of ground, from fertility to menopause. If you’re trying to conceive, on your own or alongside IUI or IVF, acupuncture can be a calm, supportive part of that journey. And if you’re in perimenopause or menopause, dealing with hot flashes, night sweats, broken sleep, mood changes or fatigue, I want you to know this isn’t just something you have to live with. Acupuncture offers natural support, at a pace that fits your body.
Support Through Illness
For patients going through cancer treatment and recovery, acupuncture can be a gentle source of support alongside the care of your medical team. My goal is simple: to help you feel more like yourself during a hard season.
What you can expect from me
No matter why you come in, you’ll see me, Dr. Leah Gallimore, at every visit. I hold a Doctor of Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine (DACM) and I’m a Licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.). My care is all natural: no chemicals, no peels, no injections. Your treatment happens in a quiet, private room, and we always take time to talk about what’s going on and what you’d like to change.
Many of my patients have been with me for years, and most new patients come because a friend or family member sent them. That trust means more to me than I can say. It’s the heart of what Anew is: rooted in community, inspired by healing, whole in body, mind, and spirit.
