Tammy began a career as a flight attendant and enjoyed traveling both domestically and internationally. The travel aspect of the job was exciting and rewarding but during flight is when she realized that she was drawn to the path of caring for and serving people. When she was pregnant with her first child her baby was breech. Her OB/GYN recommended that she seek a Chinese Medicine treatment with moxibustion to help turn the breech baby. This led her to research acupuncture and Chinese medicine. In her research she was excited to learn of therapies and ways to treat disease without the use of pharmaceuticals. She had family members who were struggling with disease and who wanted to find relief without taking a lot of pain medication. She became interested in studying Acupuncture and later when her children were older she enrolled at Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine.

In 2018 she began working as support staff for Stillpoint Acupuncture and in 2020 she completed the masters program at Jung Tao. Tammy feels that the tools and techniques she has learned from studying Chinese Medicine allow her to continue on her path to care for and serve people. She finds it deeply rewarding to help people find better health and balance through this medicine.

Tammy has her BS in elementary education from Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA and a Diploma of Acupuncture from Jung Tao School of Classical Chinese Medicine in Sugar Grove, NC. She still enjoys traveling but balances it with a rewarding home life raising her daughter and son as well as their rescue animals Donato, the cat and Lily, the St. Bernard.

Heather McIver graduated from Southwest Acupuncture College in Boulder, CO. She opened Stillpoint Acupuncture in 2001 and has been thrilled to see the popularity of Chinese Medicine grow since then. A major influence on her practice was her two-year course of study with Lonny Jarrett, author of Nourishing Destiny: The Inner Tradition of Chinese Medicine, and nationally recognized authority on integrating both Traditional Chinese Medicine and Five Element Acupuncture into a cohesive practice style. Heather has made two trips to Beijing, China where she learned from accomplished doctors of acupuncture. Heather’s true love is Chinese Herbal Medicine. In 2014 she completed a two-year advanced Graduate Mentorship Program with Sharon Weizenbaum. In 2015, she began studying with Dr. Feng Shi Lun and to this day continues that study with his student, Dr. Suzanne Robidoux. In 2019, she completed Dr. Robidoux’s two-year Jing Fang Classical formulas course and became a lineage holder in the Hu Xi Shu / Feng Shi Lun Six Syndrome System understanding of the use of Zhang Zhong Jing classical herbal formulas. This system provides a clear diagnostic process and understanding of the formulas that she has found produces faster and more profound results.

Heather holds a BA in Religious Studies from Guilford College, and a Masters in Health Education from the University of NC at Greensboro in addition to her MSOM. Heather is the mother of two children and enjoys writing, reading and good food!
