Rowan is a licensed acupuncturist, artist, and educator living and working on Lenape land. Rowan received their Masters of Acupuncture degree from the Won Institute in Warminster, PA after three years of intensive graduate study of the theory and practice of East Asian Medicine. Rowan is also a Level 2 Reiki practitioner, trained by Sensei Marie Kyoko Morohoshi. Asian Medicine has been a part of Rowan’s life since childhood, as both Rowan’s father and grandfather worked in the healing arts. Rowan witnessed their grandfather incorporate Chinese acupressure points into his Physical Therapy practice, and enjoyed first hand their father’s work in Japanese Shiatsu and Hawaiian Lomilomi massage. These formative experiences shaped Rowan’s passion for healing work. Rowan decided to pursue a career as an acupuncturist after they suffered injuries from a major car crash. Acupuncture provided relief for their chronic pain, and was instrumental in managing their anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Rowan hopes to be able to offer this life changing medicine to others, especially to folk of color and the LGBTQ+ community. In connecting with ancestral healing modalities, Rowan aspires to decolonize and queer the wellness field to make medicine more accessible.
