Specialties

I am a Licensed Acupuncturist and Natural Nutrition specialist providing Traditional Chinese Medicine techniques combined with modern Natural Nutrition and Dietary Therapy to treat a wide variety of physical and emotional conditions.

Treatments are provided in a quiet and relaxing Home-​Based setting, in the Cedar Park/​Leander area.

My patients are genuinely cared for, empowered and educated– so that as informed people, they are better able to take an active participation in their own healthcare, and ultimately be able to make the appropriate choices for their health and well-​being.

Whether you are experiencing discomfort of some kind or simply looking for a way to way to naturally support and maintain your overall health, Acupuncture can provide a safe, effective and side-​effect-​free approach to achieving your greatest level of wellness.

History

Established in 2009.

Achieved a Master’s degree in Traditional Chinese Medicine in 2009 at the world-​renowned Academy of Oriental Medicine in Austin. In Jan 2010, I moved from Austin sunny Scottsdale, AZ. to open my practice. After 4 years of success in a thriving Acupuncture practice in AZ, my husband and I chose to return home to Austin to be closer to my family in Nov. 2013.

I am licensed by the state of Texas to practice Acupuncture and OM, and am nationally board certified by the NCCAOM.

Meet the Business Owner

Melanie I.

Business Owner

As a Licensed Acupuncturist, researcher and writer in the field of natural nutrition and dietary therapy, I practice with a bias toward finding natural solutions to chronic and acute conditions. Whereas conventional medicine focuses on suppressing symptoms, treatments in my office focus on eliminating symptoms by determining and addressing the underlying cause of a condition.

My practice philosophy centers around the recognition that the body is an interconnected whole, and emphasizes the importance of these connections in treating disease and restoring health. I also focus on guiding and encouraging my patients with a «teach a man to fish» philosophy that and I feel is a critical missing piece in the modern healthcare system. I believe in empowering my patients by dispelling common health myths and teaching them what’s really going on with their own bodies, so that as informed people, they can take an active participation in their own healing process.

I bought a Groupon deal for Turning Point Wellness for two acupuncture treatments for $ 39. I couldn’t have gotten a better deal. Melanie is friendly, knowledgeable and willing to answer all kinds of questions about acupuncture and nutrition. She definitely knows her stuff! The office is tranquil and beautiful and you feel at ease as soon as you sit down in the waiting room. Also, a nice little touch at the end, she offers you a cup of tea before you leave. If I could afford this on a regular basis, I would definitely keep going back. Unfortunately, as are most acupuncture clinics, it’s fairly expensive. That said, her prices are actually lower than some other places in the valley.

No more surgery for me!!! After 2 shoulder surgeries and the threat of a third, I decided that maybe Melanie was what I needed. I had been looking for an Acupuncturist that was trained, skilled and knowlegeable. I found that and more in Melanie at Turning Point. I suffered from severe pain in my shoulders and could not lift my arms above my chest for over 10 years… after less than 4 months of treatments, I am now able to fully extend my arms straight above my head! I was told by my PT that I would probably never have more than 60% of my shoulders… HA!!! When I told Melanie that, her eyes lit up — I could see her mind saying — we can do better than 60%!! She did. Melanie’s bedside manner, her professionalism, her knowledge of health and nutrition, her positive attitude and her positive outlook on life will make your visit more than you can imagine. Melanie listens to you and your body and treats accordingly. I would have settled for SOME relief and after 10 years of suffering — I honestly forgot what it was like to be pain free! I value Melanie’s talents and her insightfulness and I have been so fortunate to cross paths with her at a time in my life when I needed it most. Thank you Melanie. Oh, and other aches and pains along the way? Melanie did wonders. A severe earrache and inflammation — Melanie decreased the amount of days I suffered. A horrible pain in my leg — practically gone in 2 sessions — Melanie at Turning Point is the entire health package. Wonder if I can make her my PCP???

There is not enough space to say all the great things about Melanie and her practice! She gives top notch service with her full attention to you and your needs, She is extremely knowledgeable and willing to research if needed, she truly cares about helping you! I am going mostly for everyday stress relief and without a doubt I notice a difference when Melanie and I have gotten together. The experience itself is extremely relaxing and her gentleness can relieve any anxiety that someone might have for a first time. Her office is not only relaxing and beautiful but also very professional. I would not hesitate referring Melanie to any of my friends or family! She is outstanding at what she does! Thank you Melanie!

Melanie is absolutely awesome! I have been seeing her for acupuncture treatment for about four months now, and thus far, every issue I have started seeing her for has been treated. The most recent affliction was hives — I was covered in them, head to toe, for three days. Benadryl, hydrocortisone cream, oatmeal baths, and Zyrtec hadn’t helped and the hives were continuously getting worse. On the third day, I went in for an acupuncture treatment. By the next morning, the hives were about 50% gone. On the following day, they were all gone. It was a miracle! She even checked in with me on the weekend to see how I was doing which was awesome. I have since been referring her to anyone in the area who is having any kind of issues. With her treatment, dietary suggestions, and high quality natural supplements, I’m sure she can help with just about anything!

According to Webster ‘incredible’ means: apparently impossible but real or true. I am here to say Melanie Miller and her acupuncture results are –incredible-​! For those of us who has ever had a toothache, you know this is one of the worst pains to endure. I was a relative newcomer to acupuncture and still had a few reservations, about acupuncture and it’s efficacy. That is, until I began having a serious toothache. I had been suffering for about 12 hours and no relief. Twenty minutes into my session with Melanie — my toothache disappeared! I never had another doubt about how serious the benefits of acupuncture can be! Oh and don’t think that Melanie is some ‘new age goddess’ in rainbow colored Fleetwood Mac costume cast-​offs, she’s a very level headed and insightful young woman with realistic and modern sensibilities. The office is so welcoming, relaxing and very appealing, I can’t imagine a better all-​around experience!

I have been seeing Melanie for about 6 months. In addition to healing my physical pain and back/​neck tightness, her spirit is so lovely that she heals me from the inside out! I truly enjoy seeing her, and I feel like each and every time if my first visit in the sense that she cares what I am saying and listens closely to what I am dealing with that day, and adjusts her treatmens accordingly. I’d like to say here that this was my FIRST acupuncture experience, and THANK GOODNESS it was with Melanie. There was no need to be nervous — her energy puts me right at ease. If you are considering acupuncture treatment of any kind, put Melanie first on your list!
