The focus of our practice is to support people in recovering their vitality, returning their health and educating our patients so that they can KEEP their health into the future. And we do this with a combination of modalities that underscore and help the body’s own ability to heal.
A foundation of our practice is Functional Medicine, which helps to prevents chronic disease, or returns you back to as much health as possible when you DO have chronic health issues. We use Western medical testing to give us indications if issues are showing up in blood tests (for example) or traditional Chinese medicine techniques to gather more information on your health. We use lifestyle modifications, nutrition, and herbs (just to name a few) to support the body in healing itself.

Highly recommended, Wonderful Practitioners!
Both Marlene and Will are extremely knowledgeable in their fields and are committed to making a difference in people's health. The year before I started going to Merritt Acupuncture I was on 6 rounds of antibiotics in 5 months and was going to see my GP 6 to 9 times a year. Now I haven't seen my regular doctor in over a year! They've helped me with my immune system, anxiety, sleep, and pain management. I would HIGHLY recommend them to anyone. They always keep appointments on time, take all of my concerns into account, and are caring and professional. In short, they rock!Eastern medicine principles work
In 2005, I was 20 pounds overweight and making a lot of bad choices, diet-wise. Dr Merritt recommended a liver cleanse treatment that entailed several weeks of wholesome food to give my body a chance to clean itself of all the toxins that a poor diet produces in the system. That cleanse helped me reach my fitness goals (20 pounds lost in three months) prior to a cross country bicycle ride from Atlanta to Portland, Maine.Highly knowledgable, open, honest, professional
I do recommend trying out a session with Will Mitchell or Marlene Merritt. You will find that they are very professional and genuinely interested in your overall health and well-being. It is unique to find people who are so in tuned to both Western and Eastern medicines and who have so much research under their heads. Will will often spend a long time just educating you about how the body works, how digestion and nutrition works, and how different things (often very easy to understand things) affect your health. It's a refreshing approach and you feel more like a valued patient than a number in a waiting room.Caring, professional, very knowledgeable
Marlene Merritt and Will Mitchell are exceptionally knowledgeable and caring with their patients, and are committed to their patients' health and well-being. I have been seeing Marlene for almost 2 years, and in that time she has helped me with a variety of issues, some related to menopause, as well as others such as pain management, sleep, and indigestion. In January 2007, Marlene convinced me to go through the liver cleanse program, which turned out to be a good decision. I not only lost a few pounds, but the program also prepared my body to better handle the effects of surgery just 2 months later. I highly recommend Merritt Acupuncture and Wellness!Worldwide > United States > Austin > Hospitals and Medical Centers
