Aleesha’s Story
Aleesha Ackerman, LAc is a licensed acupuncturist who owns and operates Aleesha D Acupuncture in Anoka, MN. She holds a Master’s degree in Acupuncture. After 15 years of debilitating migraine headaches following an auto accident with a semi-truck during high school, Aleesha was finally cured of her extreme, daily pain with Acupuncture treatments. She threw away her pain medications and no longer spent hopeless days in bed with chronic pain. Her quality of life now restored, Aleesha vowed to return to college to become trained in Acupuncture in order to help others like herself overcome pain and stress in order to improve their own quality of life.
Aleesha specializes in both Facial and Neck Cosmetic Mei Zen Protocols, Pain, Headaches, Stress, Anxiety, Low energy, Low mood, Digestion issues and Women’s health, including helping the body to maintain hormonal balance during Menopause and Perimenopause to relieve hot flashes, insomnia, mood swings, and PMS.
Cosmetic acupuncture patients who see Aleesha are looking for a natural alternative to look young, while avoiding fillers and surgery. Others have chronic issues with diagnosed diseases, disorders and syndromes such as Anxiety, Crohn’s, Depression (mild to moderate), Endometriosis, IBD, IBS, Fibromyalgia, and Auto-Immune Thyroid Diseases like Hashimoto’s Hypothyroidism and Grave’s Hyperthyroidism. Many say they just want to feel better.
Aleesha’s passion and drive to help others were intensified after enduring severe, chronic pain herself. Her purpose is clear in life: to relieve the pain and suffering of others using acupuncture along with Traditional Chinese Medicine diet therapy and lifestyle modification.
Patients who see Aleesha say they will continue to see her and continue to refer their friends and family due to her integrity, excellent bedside manner, knowledge, and their feeling of being genuinely listened to and cared for.
She works with patients to help return mental and physical balance to the body. Aleesha is interested in working with those who truly want to take control of their own health and wellness. She is grateful to be part of each patient’s wellness journey.
