Carrie Murphy, LAc specializes in integrative internal medicine, working primarily with patients who are also undergoing biomedical treatment for diseases such as heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer, fibromyalgia, IBS, reflux, anxiety and insomnia. Her main focus is to help patients maximize their vitality while minimizing the number of medications and surgeries they have to undergo. Prevention is the highest form of Chinese medicine, and Carrie also enjoys working with patients who are not ill but feel the stresses of life are beginning to impact their well-being, and want to do something to avoid illness; and patients looking for support during times of healthy change such as pregnancy and menopause.
Carrie is chair of the Department of Herbal Medicine at Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in Chicago, where she also taught Integrative Oncology and Integrative Endocrinology, and for whom she supervised a student acupuncture clinic at Chicago Women's Health Center. She works with a diverse group of patients including many visual and performing artists and teachers. All are welcome. Carrie lectures regularly to community groups like Gilda's Club, and at medical conferences. Continuing education activities include a focus on integrative oncology and herb-drug interaction.
She holds a BA in Philosophy from Sarah Lawrence College, and a Master's degree in Traditional Oriental Medicine from PCOM - NY. She is fully licensed in Wisconsin and Illinois and NCCAOM-certified in Acupuncture, Chinese Herbs, Oriental Medicine, and Clean Needle Technique.
