About Us
Nestled in a cozy, historic Victorian home beside a flourishing orchard, Stepping Into Wellness is more than a clinic—it’s a healing hub in Oakland’s Laurel/Dimond District. We offer Acupuncture, Orthopedic Acupuncture, Nutritional and Herbal Consultations, and Wellness Counseling.
Over the years, we’ve cultivated a loyal client base that keeps growing—thanks to word-of-mouth from folks who send their moms, kids, coworkers, and neighbors our way.
We believe healing works best when it’s collaborative. Our team loves to sit down together and nerd out over tough cases, brainstorm strategies, and support each other professionally and personally. We’re looking for someone who’s excited to be a part of that energy.
