Say Hello to
Alexia Bennetts
Alexia Bennetts (Lexie) was first treated with acupuncture and Chinese medicine in her early 20’s for sinus and menstrual problems. She consistently treats her patients at Calm Spirit Acupuncture with gentleness, empathy and professionalism.
Lexie had seen western medicine doctors for these ailments, was given the usual pain medications, and was told some of these issues were just genetic and not likely to change much. After a couple months of treatment with Chinese medicine, she felt better than ever and knew this was a medicine she wanted to learn more about.
In 1999 she earned a diploma in acupuncture and Chinese Medicine in Colorado. Lexie especially enjoys treating pain, women’s issues, digestive problems, and sinus/allergy conditions. She collaborates with other physicians and healthcare providers to promote each patients unique balance for health. She believes that in order to heal the mind, body, and spirit a combination of approaches and gentle care usually work best. Lexie combines east and the west, with degrees in Oriental Medicine and Biology, along with experience from EAS, a sport nutrition supplement company. This diverse background, along with having more than 2,200 hours of eastern medicine training, gives Lexie a well-rounded foundation in health, nutrition, and fitness. During her years of practice, Lexie has maintained and advanced her skills and knowledge, as a current member of the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine, and by taking continuing education classes.
Chinese Medicine recognizes that good health includes balancing the mental, spiritual, and physical aspects in one’s life. This is accomplished using a variety of “tools” including educating the client in diet, lifestyle choices and preventative strategies, including acupuncture, herbal remedies, and manual massage-like techniques to restore health. Lexie genuinely listens to her patients and creates treatment plans that will fit their health and healing needs and understands that wellness is achieved with healing the root causes and the branch symptoms.
Lexie is grateful to her clients for the success of the practice, noting “the main source of referrals is word-of-mouth from our happy and loyal clients.”
Ask Lexie about her four young boys and she will tell you how much she enjoys living each day to the fullest with her very active, happy, and healthy family.
