Acupuncture for Fertility, Hormone Balance & Whole-Body Wellness

Helping individuals and families navigate fertility, pregnancy, PCOS, endometriosis, menopause, anxiety, and stress through personalized, integrative care in Longmont, Colorado.

More Than Acupuncture

At Karuna Acupuncture, every treatment plan is designed around you—not just your diagnosis. Through a combination of acupuncture, Maya Abdominal Therapy, functional nutrition, herbal medicine, and targeted supplements, we work together to restore balance, support healing, and help you feel your best.

I designed Karuna Acupuncture to be an oasis of healing—a calm, safe, relaxed setting where your nervous system can finally take a long exhale. I take time to truly listen and understand what you're experiencing so we can create a treatment plan that supports your physical, emotional, and mental well-being.

Personalized Care With Time to Truly Listen

Unlike rushed appointments, I believe healing happens when people feel seen, heard, and valued.

Extended Appointment Times

We have time to discuss your cycle, symptoms, sleep, mood, stress levels, lab work, and overall health.

Compassionate Care Rooted in Experience

Hi friend! I'm Dr. Karen (she/her), owner and acupuncturist at Karuna Acupuncture.

I specialize in reproductive health, fertility, and mental health, helping patients navigate everything from IVF and pregnancy to anxiety, trauma, and menopause. As a Fellow of the Acupuncture and TCM Board of Reproductive Medicine (FABORM), I have advanced training in fertility optimization, IVF/IUI support, endometriosis, PCOS, prenatal care, postpartum recovery, and menopause support.

Before becoming an acupuncturist, I worked as a social worker, an experience that continues to shape my patient-centered approach to care today.

What Does "Karuna" Mean?

Karuna is a Sanskrit word meaning compassion. It serves as the foundation and guiding principle behind every patient interaction and treatment plan.

Kind Words From Our Patients

  • "Karen is the absolute best! She is so knowledgeable. You can tell she genuinely cares too. She is intentional about your care without ever being pushy. It’s whenever/whatever you want and whatever you feel comfortable with. She’s amazing and supportive. I am just so happy I found her."

    — Annie

  • "Being treated here has been so life changing for me! I came to Karuna for a neck issue I believe was a pinched nerve, but Karen helped me realize acupuncture and Chinese medicine could help with my long covid, my POTS and anxiety. I have been seeing Karen for over a year now, and she has helped transform my life!! I'm doing so much better, so glad to have found her. Best acupuncture in the area!!"

    — Hope

  • "Karen has been a huge support during my fertility journey. I came to her after 5 losses hopeless and quite lost. She empathetically has guided me and helped balance and strengthen my body through herbs, acupuncture, and Mayan abdominal massage to be able to sustain a pregnancy. I’m 27 weeks pregnant and baby is moving and kicking in my belly as I type this :)"

    — Corinne

  • "The amount of work and heart Karen puts into her patients is truly remarkable. Not only is she very talented, she has a wonderful working knowledge of the body. I saw her for fertility related issues, and was blown away at her understanding of women's cycles, bodies, and hormones. I give her lots of credit for helping my body to make useable embryos. Highly recommend Karen for any issue mundane or challenging, truly a special healer."
