Dr. Jools Candelaria
Dr. Jools Candelaria loves offering profoundly personalized natural healthcare via Chinese medicine, movement therapy, and regenerative reproductive wellness. She gives equal focus to helping you heal the physical, emotional, and spiritual bodies. She believes in the effectiveness of slow medicine, with longer appointment times that allow a deep connection to be nurtured in the patient-practitioner relationship.
The realms of healing in which her specialties lie are womanhood cycles + womb wellness, chronic pain management, gut optimization, sleep enhancement, and esoteric attunement.
The primary treatment modalities she utilizes from her toolbox of the ancient healing arts are acupuncture with massage, pelvic steaming, fire cupping, Thai yoga therapy, and sound healing.
Dr. Jools also offers 1:1 womb wellness mentorship immersions in a virtual 3-month container, as well as seasonal women’s circles around San Diego.
She is a medicine woman with a deep reverence for Mother Earth. She came to this path quite young, when her first Acupuncture treatment changed her life at the age of 21. She immediately knew this was the medicine she wanted to share with the world. She began her studies at San Diego’s Pacific College of Health & Science immediately thereafter. From there she received her Doctorate in Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine, with a Master of Science in Traditional Oriental Medicine. She is licensed by the California Acupuncture board and has been passionately in practice since 2021.
Dr. Jools loves diving into deeper education and certification within the branches of healing that speak to her. She is a registered yoga teacher (RYT) with specific training in providing Thai massage and healing touch adjustments in every asana for 1:1 movement therapeutic work. She has been dancing professionally and performing as a cirque artist for over a decade now, giving her an acute awareness of optimizing a body that is often in extreme motion.
She has also completed several intensive mentorships in women’s health focused on menstrual regulation, womb-based emotional trauma healing, womb awakening via plant spirit medicine, and the Chinese medicine model for ovarian optimization.
Dr. Jools devotes her life to all the modern people who can be served by the ancient healing arts.
