Avena Integrative Medical Center
Description
Dr. Anna Licciardo is a nationally board-certified, licensed naturopathic physician and licensed acupuncturist trained in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine. During her clinical studies, she had the privilege to spend time in China at Liaoning TCM University as well as complete several rotations under Dr. D’Adamo at the Center of Excellence.
Her passion for the human body began with a love of dance at a young age. After completing her BFA in Dance, she studied Pilates, furthering her knowledge of therapeutic movement. This lead to an interest in natural medicine. She completed a postbaccalaureate premedical program while teaching Pilates, modern dance, and ballet.
Her decision to study natural medicine sprang from her amazement at the human body’s adaptability and her desire to help it heal. Nutrition is the foundation of health. It is through nutrition that we can manipulate the delicate mechanics of the body’s physiology. Autoimmune diseases, women’s health, mental health, and other chronic illnesses can all be greatly affected by each individual’s dietary needs and restrictions. Dr. Licciardo believes that optimal health and well being should be accessible to everyone and is dedicated to supporting all of her patients on that journey
