Several women in Jill’s life – her mom, a nurse with a fascinating textbook collection, and her grandmother, who grew up immersed in Appalachian folk medicine – helped plant the seed of healing.

A former executive assistant, Jill is particularly attuned to the stressors of corporate life and how they manifest in our bodies. At home, she’s “a fan of the needles,” often delivering self-treatments to ward off insomnia or just to unwind.
