Nicole Rodney Acupuncture is an acupuncturist in East Cleveland, OH. The clinic provides holistic health care and alternative natural treatments for conditions ranging from headaches and pain management to infertility. Nicole Rodney, PhD, MPH, LAc, is a licensed acupuncturist and PhD medical anthropologist who specializes in helping patients understand how qi moves or becomes stuck within muscles, tissues, and lived patterns. Her clinical approach is grounded in her background as a stress researcher, informed by years of studying the epigenetic and embodied impacts of intergenerational trauma in the Democratic Republic of Congo.
The practice integrates acupuncture with what Rodney calls Movement Medicine, an embodied approach to understanding stagnation and restoring flow through mindful movement and skilled intervention. Acupuncture treatments involve the insertion of thin, flexible, single-use needles retained for 20 to 40 minutes, a process that is typically painless. Sound and voice are central to the clinic's offerings, with original sonic meditations and chants created to support meditation, nervous system regulation, and mindfulness. Rodney also teaches vocal sound healing to help patients find internal sounds as a pathway to expression and regulation. Beyond clinical acupuncture, she serves as a meditation teacher focused on non-dual awareness, as well as a birth doula and a death doula, supporting individuals at life's thresholds with grounded presence and compassionate guidance.
