We’re here to help you understand your body, trust your path forward, and start feeling like yourself again—one step, one shift, one choice at a time.

(And it’s closer than you think.)

Your body is wise, and healing is possible.

We believe the body already knows how to heal. Our job is to find the right key to unlock it.

Welcome. You’re exactly where you’re meant to be.

To the women who are tired of hearing “everything looks fine” when they know something’s not right…

To the ones who’ve spent thousands on tests, supplements, or specialists (even functional), yet still don’t have answers.

To the ones who are ready to feel good again and live the life they’ve been waiting for…

That experience led me to earn a kinesiology degree, a Master’s in Traditional Chinese Medicine, and train at Henan University in China. Since then I've helped over 1,000 women reclaim their health and hope.

Your body is wise. Your symptoms are not random. Healing is possible, even when nothing else has worked.

We listen, explore, and keep going until your body responds. You know yourself best, so the more you share, the more we can help.

Whether you're longing to become a mom, feel good in your body again, or simply want someone to listen, you are not alone.

There is a way forward. It starts by bringing your body back to balance.

I'm so honored you're here. We can’t wait to meet you.

If you’re here, it probably means you're searching for real answers, real healing, and a path that actually feels like it fits you.

I didn’t set out to be an acupuncturist. I was studying nursing, fascinated by the body and how it works. But what I saw, especially in women's health, was a lot of "patch it up and move on" care, without much understanding of why symptoms were happening.

At the same time, I was living it. I struggled with horrible periods, unexplained pain, and frustrating diagnoses. I was handed medications that made me feel worse, without anyone looking for the root of the problem.

It wasn't until I discovered acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine that I finally found what I had been missing: care that treated me like a whole person, not just a list of symptoms. Care that respected the body’s wisdom, and supported it, instead of trying to override it.

I'm Jamie Wilcox, licensed acupuncturist and founder of Eau Claire Acupuncture.

Welcome. I'm really glad you're here.

“I’ve never felt more relaxed in my life than I do when I’m at acupuncture. I can instantly feel the weight of everyday life lift off of me when I’m there. I crave it and look forward to my weekly sessions.

Jamie is so attentive and knowledgeable. She listens closely, asks thoughtful questions, explains what may be causing issues, and actually makes those issues better or nonexistent. I also love that she provides herbs and supplements so the support continues even after you leave her office. Working with her has made a much bigger difference than I ever expected.”

This is the kind of experience we want for you, too.
