Gentle and effective: acupuncture works

Great health care is happening in Smith River. Jody Mangum, licensed acupuncturist and owner of The Wellness Center, has been serving the healthcare needs of the Wild Rivers Coast for over eight years.

“I think it’s very important to continue learning from the best in my field so each person who comes to me gets the best possible care. I represent an amazing medicine that has helped people for thousands of years and I want to demonstrate to my community how well it works,” she says.

Mangum is a diplomat of Oriental Medicine (NCCAOM) and licensed by the state of California. She obtained her Master of Science degree in Oriental Medicine from Samra University in Los Angeles and trained at the American Academy of Acupuncture to obtain a Diplomat of Orthopedic Acupuncture. In other words: You’re in good hands at The Wellness Center.

Health is wealth. Acupuncture activates health from within, without relying on medications with “side-effects.”
