About Sonia Rivera
- Licensed Acupuncturist/Massage Therapist/Reiki Master/Reflexology
Sonia Rivera, L.Ac., Dipl. Ac., MSTOM, is a licensed acupuncturist in the State of Illinois and Board Certified by the National Certification Commission for Acupuncture and Oriental Medicine.
Sonia Rivera has years of experience in alternative medical practice. She utilizes Acupuncture, Chinese and Western Herbal Medicine, Nutritional Counseling, Foot Reflexology and integrative massage to promote optimal health and wellness in her clients. Sonia practices in Oak Park and specializes in women's health, infertility, pain management and psycho-emotional disorders. Sonia combines knowledge, experience, intuition and passion to treat patients with a multitude of disorders. She finds great satisfaction in helping her patients restore health through natural healing and to educate and guide them to live a wholesome, vibrant and healthy long life by making changes in lifestyle, diet, and through mind-body rejuvenation.
In addition to Traditional Chinese Medicine, Sonia practices Traditional Japanese Acupuncture. With thinner needles and shallower insertions, Japanese Acupuncture provides clients with a gentle and equally effective alternative to TCM. She greatly respects the wisdom of the body and is devoted to using the gentlest appropriate methods to encourage the body's own healing capacity. Sonia uses Traditional Chinese Medicine in conjunction with state of the art reproductive care to help healthy people have healthy babies. Drawing from current research protocols and her own comprehensive clinical experience, Sonia’s treatments can significantly enhance reproductive potential in both males and females.
Sonia understands the anxiety and stress that often surround the issue of infertility. She offers care that is both effective and compassionate. Her nurturing presence lends power to her treatments, and ensures that both her mind and her heart are fully engaged in the process.
During initial appointments, Sonia gathers an extensive health history from clients and employs a wide range of diagnostic tools to get the most accurate picture of the client’s condition. As this picture comes into focus, she develops a personalized treatment plan to help restore health and vitality.
Sonia received her Masters (M.S.O.M.) from Pacific College of Oriental Medicine in San Diego, California. She also completed an advanced course of study and clinical internship in Nanjing, China. In addition to her acupuncture training, Sonia is certified in nutritional counseling with particular emphasis on detoxification and anti-aging. She has served on the Board of Directors and is an active member of the Illinois State Acupuncture Association (ISAA) and American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM). Sonia is a monthly columnist for Health and Fitness Times. She is bilingual, fluent in both Spanish and English. In her spare time, she enjoys spending time with her husband Kevin and son Joshua.
Sonia Rivera is currently accepting new patients.
