I have always been a fan of balancing western medicine with natural forms of healing, pain management, stress-reduction and general maintenance of my well-being. Moving to Valencia, Spain from California posed a few challenges, one of which was searching for and discovering my options for natural wellness in a new city.
Where can I find an english-speaking acupuncturist? Is chiropractic care safe in Spain? Where can I go for a relaxing massage or healing reiki?
After living in Valencia, Spain for four years, I have found an incredible group of individuals who I lovingly like to call my “Healers”. From migraines to anxiety, depression to pelvic pain, stress to simply wanting to treat myself to a morning of self-care, these individuals have provided me with a safe, loving, warm place to find healing.
I hope you enjoy my recommendations. Please let them know that I, Jennison, sent you!

Acupuncture
Meeting an English-speaking acupuncturist was crucial for me. I wanted to feel comfortable sharing my story with this person and have the ability to ask questions and learn from my healing experience. I contacted Kelli Davis from Vibrant Life Integrative Wellness. Kelli made me feel comfortable right away. She offers a free consultation and helps many individuals in the community. Personally, she has helped me with hormone imbalance, back pain, migraines, anxiety and fatigue. Whatsapp: +34 652 57 53 09
Chiropractic
I was in chronic pain after the birth of my son. I suffered from sciatica, lower back pain and far-from-optimal pelvic health. After two years of searching for a solution, I met Jorge Romero from Centro Quiropráctico Jorge Romero. He was a student in one of my yoga classes in Valencia and I knew right off the bat that we had similar values. He was knowledgable, patient, and thorough. As a neurological chiropractor, he took the time to analyze my entire well-being including my balance, mobility and brain-body connection. After only one appointment, I walked out of the office pain-free…for the first time in two years!
