Dr. Krystal Kinnunen is passionate about helping individuals and families achieve lasting wellness through a compassionate, holistic approach to health care. She treats every patient with the same dedication and warmth she gives her own family, creating a nurturing space where healing can begin.

After a decade of serving families in Asheville, North Carolina, Dr. Krystal Kinnunen relocated to Vail Valley, Colorado, following the devastation of Hurricane Helene that deeply impacted her community. When the storm hit, her partner—now fiancé—drove to Asheville to bring her and her two daughters safely back to Vail Valley, Colorado where they’ve since built a new home and blended their families. Together with her fiancé, a local architect, Dr. Krystal is now embracing a fresh chapter filled with healing, growth, and community connection.

Bringing her extensive experience and integrative approach to Vail Valley, Colorado Dr. Krystal is passionate about supporting women and families on their wellness journeys.

A Message From Dr. Krystal~

The experience of birthing my first daughter naturally at a Birthing Center awakened a desire in me to support and empower women during the sacred cycles of their lives. My primary focus is on women’s health with a specialty in fertility, and pregnancy, as well as focusing on supporting women at aging gracefully.

Knowing that Chinese Medicine is one of the most comprehensive and effective modalities for supporting women’s health, I devoted myself to a four-year rigorous academic graduate program at Daoist Traditions College of Chinese Medical Arts and received my Master’s of Oriental Medicine.

I used acupuncture and herbs to prepare myself to have a successful and gentle home birth at the age of 40 with my second daughter, so I know first-hand how potent this medicine is! I believe that a well-loved and supported mother creates a healthier society.

Unique Approach

I’m not your typical acupuncturist—I’m a bridge between the ancient and the modern, the mystical and the grounded. My work is deeply rooted in the classical wisdom of Chinese Medicine, weaving in evidence-based coaching, somatic tools, and earth-based rituals that honor the cycles of nature and the soul.

My approach is unique because I blend clinical precision with intuitive insight. I hold space for you to heal physically and reconnect with your inner knowing, purpose, and power. I trust the body’s intelligence and your own inner guidance just as much as I trust classical texts and science-backed strategies.

Rather than focusing solely on symptoms, I guide you into a deeper inquiry—one that embraces emotional, spiritual, and lifestyle factors impacting your health. Depending on your needs, we may work with acupuncture, guided meditation, mindset coaching, energy clearing, or stone medicine. Each session is co-created with the intention of supporting clarity, balance, and lasting transformation.

Whether you're navigating fertility, burnout, perimenopause, or simply seeking to feel more like yourself again, this is a space where healing happens on every level.
