Candise Yang, L.Ac., MSTCM, Dipl. Ac. NCCAOM is a California state licensed acupuncturist specializing in pain management, women’s health, digestive issues, and emotional wellbeing.

Through the framework of TCM, Candise utilizes the nuanced art-science of Chinese Medicine diagnosis to determine and correct an individual’s fundamental system imbalance.

In longer-standing or more complex cases, she may also utilize comprehensive functional medicine tools such as hormone panels and labs to understand the issue from a more modern clinical perspective. Patients are also welcomed to bring in labs they already have from previous providers for an in-depth analysis.

Candise has extensive experience working with a wide variety of musculoskeletal issues, ranging from the aches and pains that can naturally arise from living a physically active lifestyle to the more chronic issues that stem from repetitive stress injuries (ie, Tech Neck, so commonly found in the Bay Area!). Candise is well-versed in trigger release techniques and myofascial release therapies, which can be extremely effective at resolving long-held tension patterns throughout the entire body.

As a trauma-informed acupuncturist, Candise is strongly committed to creating a safe place for healing and bases the core of her care on the values of non-judgment, compassion, and empathic inquiry. She has learned that this warm approach resonates for those who identify as HSPs, creatives, and those struggling with chronic depression, anxiety, and other mood disorders. Candise has a way of listening that helps to ground and center those who may be in the midst of a major life transition, dealing with chronic illness, or even grieving loss.
