In 1997, my goal of studying TCM finally became a reality. I discovered one of the top U.S. schools of Traditional Chinese Medicine, the Northwest Institute of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in the city of Seattle.

Susan Wellman began studying Traditional Chinese Medicine in 1998 at the Northwest Institute of Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine in Seattle, WA. She graduated with honors in 2002 with a Master’s degree. She then opened a Traditional Chinese Medicine practice, treating patients with Chinese herbs, acupuncture, Chinese nutrition and bodywork.

In 2011, she began her teaching career at Middleway Acupuncture Institute. And has since taught at four Traditional Chinese Medicine schools, in four different cities across the United States. She’s trained hundreds of graduate students and has proudly watched many complete their studies and begin their professional journeys.

She still teaches Chinese Medicine at the graduate level, provides professional development resources to other Chinese medicine professionals, and sees patients. Here at Well Pathways, she now can collaborate with other providers for complete comprehensive care.

After a very chaotic early childhood, I started to notice my body's instant response to stress, anxiety, or anger. Seeking to understand, and avoid discomfort, I delved into the interconnectedness of beliefs, bodies, and thoughts.

My fascination led to studying bodies, trauma, generational beliefs, and subtle connections.

This healing journey propelled me to become a licensed massage therapist (LMT)-with a deep affinity for CranioSacral Therapy (CST), a spiritual practitioner (RScP), and certified in various energy, body, and spiritual work.

Now, I guide and support people in healing their pain and embracing all aspects of themselves.

My formal education includes a BS in Hospitality from UNLV; Diploma of Massage Therapy from Nevada School of Massage Therapy; the original 5 core-plus-classes through the Upledger Institute for CST; 4 years of study through the Centers for Spiritual Living; Facilitator and Trainer Certificates in AquaStretch through George Eversaul; and dual certification in Healing From The Core Distance and In-person bodywork.
