Pictured here is Sophie - our loving sheltie that was Ascential Acupunctures mascot for 8 years. We are so sad to have lost her at 15 years old in September 2020. Her painting will still greet you at the door. Prior to becoming an acupuncturist Veronica attended Hiram College where she graduated with honors with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology and focus minors in sociology and communications. It was during this time that she began looking into the profession of acupuncture. Her mother is an herbalist, and she grew up in a holistic household where the medicine cabinet didn't contain OTC or prescription medication, but rather natural herbal remedies. Her passion to help others led her to follow in the path that her mother had ultimately started her on.

Shelly Miller L.Ac
Shelly graduated from the American Institute of Alternative Medicine with her Master's in acupuncture. She is nationally board certified by the NCCAOM (National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine), and licensed by the Ohio State Medical Board. Shelly focuses on the treatment of pain management and women's health.
Before becoming an acupuncturist Shelly worked as an accountability coach for wellness and weight loss. It didn't take long for her to realize this was not the fullest expression of her passion. She has had a lifelong interest in healing and helping people, but first she needed to heal herself. Struggling like so many with health issues and nothing she was trying was helping, she turned to acupuncture. She was amazed at how much better she felt after her acupuncture sessions. The effects of the treatments were so miraculous and profound that within two months, she enrolled in the acupuncture program at AIAM in Columbus OH.
When Shelly isn't in the clinic supporting patients she is enjoying, yoga, hiking, time with friends and family, and playing with her rescue fur baby Luna!
