Meet Your Acupuncturist
​Hey, I’m Dawn. After more than 20 years working in a hospital along side nurses and doctors, I made a life pivot — from the rugged outdoors of Colorado to the wind and warm water of Corpus Christi.
​
I have not owned my own business in a long time and this is kind of terrifying to start over but not the fun adrenaline kind of terrifying. I am starting out as my one woman show - and I hate the phone except to text. So if talking on the phone is your thing - you may not love me.
I love using acupuncture, research and listening to you and what your body has to say about what is going on with your issues. I use acupuncture to help you tune into your body, regulate your system, and come back to center.
I became an acupuncturist to fill in the gaps I saw in conventional medicine—because patients deserve more than either/or choices. My practice is built on the belief that healing happens best when we combine the wisdom of ancient techniques with modern research. Research is also showing that a multiple methods of treatment for chronic pain works best.
​
At Dawn Powell Acupuncture, we support a “both/and” approach to care. That means you can receive steroid injections for back pain and also benefit from acupuncture—for pain relief, for sleep, for stress, for hormonal balance. You don’t have to choose one over the other.
​
Health is complex. Chronic conditions often involve more than just the body—they involve the mind, emotions, and lifestyle. That’s why we take a holistic, integrative view of each person who walks through the door.
​
Backed by clinical studies and rooted in traditional wisdom, acupuncture can be a powerful part of your healthcare team. My goal is to offer care that’s thoughtful, collaborative, and centered around you.
