The Instructor


ANASTACIA WHITE has been a practitioner and teacher of Chinese medicine, working in the herbal industry since 1984. Ms. White conducts seminars throughout the United States and lectures internationally on Chinese herbs and medical theory. She has specialized her educational offerings for those practitioners who come to TCM from other medical backgrounds. Anastacia has for many years trained physicians of the American Academy of Medical Acupuncture and comes highly recommended by Academy board members.

Ms. White has had the good fortune to have studied with Chinese herbalists and authors revered for bringing Oriental medical methodologies and philosophies to the West including: Subhuti Dharmananda, Ph.D., Ted Kaptchuk, OMD and Giovanni Maciocia, Medical Acupuncturist.

Over the years, Anastacia has blended her background in Chinese Medicine with studies in meditation, yoga, astrology, movement and ritual to create workshops and private consultations that are rich, informative and immediately useful. Ms. White is known for her ability to present obscure Chinese medical paradigms in a concise and accessible format particularly useful to the western-trained practitioner. Her teaching style allows the information to become available in a practical manner that is easily comprehended by workshop attendees.

While Anastacia is adept at presenting complicated Oriental medical concepts, her down to earth approach makes these teachings accessible to interested nonprofessionals. Her seminars and workshops in addition to being greatly informative are also deeply inspiring.
