About Heather

Heather Pentland, L.Ac. is a nationally certified Acupuncturist and Chinese Herbalist with a strong belief that the body is a great healer of itself. She uses Chinese Medicine to enable each person’s body to work and feel it’s personal best. Heather graduated from Connecticut College with a BA in Anthropology and completed a Master's Degree in Anthropology at the University of Chicago while working at Chicago's Field Museum of Natural History. During that time Heather traveled to China two times and developed a deep interest in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). She returned to school, completing a 36-month full-time program in TCM at the International Institute of Chinese Medicine in Santa Fe, New Mexico. At the end of her schooling she returned to China where she completed an internship at the China-Japan Friendship Hospital in Beijing, one of China's most modern hospitals. Heather believes strongly in the connection between mind, body and healing. She takes the time to create a personal connection with each client, and believes that in a safe and nurturing environment, our bodies do their best healing. Heather now sees patients at the Meridian Wellness Center, 66 Glenbrook Road, just off Route 1, in Stamford, Connecticut. She also consults via phone and email, offering Chinese herbal supplements, meditation/chi exercises, and aromatherapeutic oils.
