Whole Body Health

About

Whole Body Health is the practice of Leah Capra, a licensed acupuncturist working from Culpepper Lane in southeast Raleigh. Her approach starts further back than the needles. She addresses the emotional body first, supports that with therapy, and then brings acupuncture in to treat the whole person.

She was drawn to Chinese medicine because it treats emotional health as the ground physical health stands on. Unresolved emotions, in her view, lodge in the body and create the conditions for illness, so she does not separate the acupuncture from the emotional work.

What to know

  • She holds LAc and DAc credentials and is licensed in North Carolina.
  • Somatic therapy is offered alongside the acupuncture.
  • She has taught as an adjunct English professor at San Joaquin Delta College since 2013.
  • That teaching background shapes how she explains treatment to patients.
  • She writes a blog, and appointments can be requested through the practice.
