Midwest is the oldest school of acupuncture and traditional Chinese Medicine in the United States, and at that time had a very busy school clinic located in a bustling urban neighborhood treating people with intense and complex health challenges.

She had the opportunity to work along side amazing practitioners and professors in Chicago and surrounding cities.

She is deeply interested in the cultivation of wellness with natural and traditional practices. Traditional medicine meaning wellness practices based on long-standing traditions and the lived wisdom of cultures, communities, and families. The multi-branched system that we refer to as “acupuncture” is a complete system of healthcare with an incredible, far reaching history. The Chinese medicine system is the longest continuously practiced form of healthcare on earth. Across time more human beings have utilized this method than any other approach. This rich tradition of wellness practices can be an incredible ally in our modern lives. The contemporary practice of AAM (Acupuncture and Asian Medicine) is rooted in lived wisdom and also informed by evidenced based research.
Dr Bowden is committed to helping you heal naturally and live your best life. She believes that everything is written in nature, and we are all part of nature. Through acupuncture, herbs, and additional modalities the obstacles to our healing can be gently removed and the best outcomes can unfold. Nothing stays the same — we are always changing. She believes we can all “heal forward” and live fully in the present.
Dr Bowden is continuously exploring herbal, hands-on, nutritional, and movement based practices to help her patients heal and transform.
