Jill S. Williams, M.Ac. Dipl.Ac.
About Jill – In 1995 I became very stressed out in my corporate job. At 40 I ended up in cardiac intensive care. However, it wasn’t my heart, it was just stress. I knew I needed a change after 10 days in the hospital and a Heart Catheterization that gave no answers. I always wanted to connect on a deeper level with people but had no idea what the modality would be. I started getting Worsley Five Element Acupuncture in 1996. Within 6 months, my life had changed and I healed so much I felt a deep calling to this system of medicine. I had the opportunity to study with J.R. Worsley from 1998 until his death in 2003. I have had the opportunity to practice this medicine since I was a supervised intern in 1997 and have watched many heal in their Body, Mind and Spirit. It is the most rewarding part of being a practitioner.
