Alli specializes in reproductive health, including fertility, pregnancy, postpartum care, and gynecological/hormonal disorders. She also has a special interest in mental wellness, digestive health, and autoimmune disease, but feels that the true healing power of Chinese medicine lies in its ability to rebalance and shift the body in ways that heal a wide variety of ailments.

As a practitioner of Chinese descent, Alli is familiar with how the teachings and wisdom of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) are woven into culture and daily life, and she emphasizes education about how the body is understood through the lens of traditional Chinese medicine. 

Alli believes in the importance of an open and compassionate relationship between practitioner and patient. She meets patients where they are in their life and healing journey and gently guides them on the path to greater health, happiness, and fulfillment. 

Before opening Spreading Roots Acupuncture, Alli practiced at the prestigious Yinova Center in New York City. She is passionate about exploring the synergistic relationship between acupuncture and modern biomedicine, and has provided acupuncture services at NYU Lutheran Hospital and Mt. Sinai-Beth Israel Hospital. Alli is a Reiki Master in the Usui Shiki Ryoho and holds a Bachelor’s degree with Honors from the University of Chicago.
