About us
NICE TO MEET YOU.
Alisha Bynum, L.ac. /// Acupuncturist & herbal clinician
Alisha Bynum, MSOM, L.Ac. is a seasoned acupuncturist and herbalist specializing in pain relief, women’s health and emotional wellness. After graduating at the top of her class in Graphic Design at Montana State University, she advanced from designer to creative director within a few short years. After 10 years in marketing and design she was inspired to pursue acupuncture.
Alisha graduated from Southwest Acupuncture College in 2013 with a Master’s of Oriental Medicine. This program was comprised of over 3,000 hours of classroom study along with over 1,100 hours of clinical training. She is certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) in Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine. Formally the secretary, she is now Vice President of the Wyoming Acupuncture Society which has been key to passing state regulatory law and perpetuating the practice of acupuncture throughout Wyoming.
A Wyoming native, Alisha has lived in Montana, Colorado, Texas and traveled the globe including Central America, Canada and Europe. But she always returned home, finding she couldn’t shake her unbridled love of the Wyoming life, landscape and the hard-working, down-to-earth folks that live here.
When a close friend in her hometown became ill – the lack of palliative and natural health care resources was apparent. After the loss of her friend, she was inspired to pursue the healing arts versus fine art. She left her previous career in 2010 and started her acupuncture education. This synergy between creativity and care is what makes Alisha unique. She uses the communication and problem solving skills learned in advertising and business development to serve her patients compassionately, concisely and creatively. Her goal is to create genuine and positive changes in her patients lives.
Alisha likes to spend as much time as possible on Wyoming’s back roads – exploring and meeting folks. She likes to fly fish, hike, ride horses and paddle board – anything that gets her outside. She travels extensively but always makes it home to Wyoming.
