I work with a wide variety of clients including:
I help you overcome your experience of physical (acute or chronic) and/or emotional pain (stress, anxiety, etc), and chronic illness (EBV, Thyroid, etc.) by using holistic and integrative medicine including Acupuncture, Biopuncture, Herbs and Supplements. I work with those who seek to transform their experience of pain/illness, and who want to improve their health and wellbeing. Working in this way can bring a reduction of pain and symptoms and relief from internal distress, and positively influence your body's own innate healing.
I help you in any phase of your fertility/parenting journey. If you are experiencing fertility setbacks, starting out on your fertility journey and want a holistic lens, or on the road to IVF/IUI/Adoption, I offer years of experience to help guide you on your path. I use holistic and integrative medicine including Acupuncture, herbs, supplements & energy medicine. I work with a range of patients who want to only supplement with Acupuncture to those who want more structured guidance with herb/supplements/food support. Working with holistic and integrative medicine can help regulate the menses, improve fertility related challenges, & bring optimal reproductive health and wellness to you and your fertility/parenting journey.
I help you overcome your experience of fear, doubt, stress, anxiety, old belief patterns and behaviors, and help you connect and embark on your spiritual path by connecting you to your inner wisdom and higher consciousness. I work those interested in deepening their spiritual growth to those who are beginning their spiritual journey. Whether we work together once or on-going, we will work to guide you in your life's purpose so you can live a more connected, centered, balanced, and joyful life.
Through my own health journey and pursuit of spiritual inquiry, I am deeply interested in engaging with others in a way that will impact their unfolding.

Vickie Summerquist EAMP, LMT
Acupuncture & East Asian Medicine
I have over 20 years of experience in Chinese and Integrative Medicine. In 2007, I cofounded Union Wellness because I wanted to work in a collaborative space with other expert practitioners. I am a graduate of Bastyr University and hold a MPH from the University of Washington. I am certified in several specialties including 5 Element Acupuncture, Pediatric Acupuncture, Microneedling, Cosmetic and more.
I treat a variety of conditions in my practice with a special emphasis on health at every size, stress relief, aging well, chronic pain, pelvic health, depression and anxiety. I understand that systems and biased health-care practices impact individual health and practice within a trauma-informed and HAES lens. I have extensive experience in supporting disordered-eating recovery and trauma integration.
A treatment with me could bring relief to acute pain or be the beginning of deeper transformation. Regardless of what brings you in, I will prioritize your goals in our work together. Beyond my work in the clinic, I offer self-guided classes on 5 Element theory and in-person workshops/retreats.
In my free time, I try to get outdoors as much as possible. I am an amateur wildcrafter and love making a variety of potions with my findings. I am a proud resident of the CD and thrilled that this neighborhood is home to Union Wellness.
