History
Lisa Eaves left a fine and successful career in computer technology after 16 years to study acupuncture. When she became licensed in 2000, it was mostly women coming to see her, women who were having difficulty conceiving. It became clear that Fertility and Women's health would become a special focus. Following her training at Harvard Medical School's Mind/Body Medical Institute, Lisa established the Mind/Body Fertility Program of D.C. in 2004. These workshops are modeled after the famous Alice Domar Infertility Program in Boston, MA. The workshops are also strongly influenced by the mindfulness training techniques taught by Jon Kabat-Zinn in the Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction courses now taught in medical centers across the country. Heal from Within is a model health clinic, like no other in the DC area. The peaceful setting is conducive for settling frazzled nerves and calming anxieties.
