Dr. Dov Shoneman

DACM, MTCM, L.Ac.

As a practitioner of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, my mission is to guide individuals towards reclaiming their health and unlocking their full potential. I firmly believe that every person has the innate ability to heal themselves and that vibrant health is a fundamental right. Drawing from my extensive training which includes an acupuncture apprenticeship, a master’s degree (MTCM), a doctorate degree (DACM), expertise in herbal medicine and dietary therapies, holistic health coaching and experiences as a faculty member and clinical supervisor, I strive to merge ancient wisdom with modern knowledge. I place my trust in the wisdom of natural cycles and the human spirit and am committed to helping others heal themselves and lead fulfilling, integrated lives. I understand that the journey towards optimal health can be challenging, and I am here to offer support and guidance every step of the way.

BEST IN ASHEVILLE

Dov is an absolute master at his craft. He took the time to really listen and get to know and understand my issues. He offered great feedback and questions. And his work is a blend on massage and acupuncture and cupping. I went for overall stress and anxiety and after several sessions I’m feeling so much better that I am tempted not to go back, which is the best testament for his work aside from recommending him — which I wholeheartedly do.

The care from Dov, his knowledge of therapeutics not only in acupuncture, but also expertise in Chinese medicine is exceptional. He treats each of his clients as if they are the only one!! I have seen massive growth on my health journey since being in his care. I recommend 10 stars, not just five.

DOV IS AMAZING

Dov has a radiating energy that makes you want to tell him everything going on in your life and he helps present solutions to bring you comfort. After talking for some time, his giftedness also translated through the actual acupuncture practice in which left me floating back to my car. I highly recommend making an appointment with him and your
body and mind will thank you later. Thanks Dov!
