Monica, Energy Practitioner, Reiki and Sound Healing
My heart’s work is creating a calm and sacred space where you can pause, breathe,
and return to yourself. Through reiki and sound healing, I guide clients in releasing what
no longer serves them and opening into peace, clarity, and self-love. Each session is
designed to meet you where you are and support your journey back to balance and
wholeness.

Jessica Arias, FDN-P

through functional labs, personalized protocols, and guided support.

up, be seen, and break free from the patterns that no longer serve you. Jessica guides
women through a transformative process to reclaiming what was always theirs—a life
fully lived in vibrant, lasting health.

Jessica offers in-person and online services.

I became a Massage Therapist because of my love for massage. I started getting body work while I was still in high school, and I realized how much it decreased my stress and made me feel better. I graduated from UCMT in 2013, and quickly got a job doing what I love. I am a very compassionate and empathetic person, and I love helping people feel their best. When I’m not working I am spending time with my kids. I love animals, traveling, and good food.

Hello and welcome to South Valley Acupuncture!

I’d like to introduce myself and share my story of how I started working in this incredible field of holistic medicine. After graduating from The Ohio State University with B.S. in Aeronautical Engineering in 1992, I started suffering from a myriad of digestive complaints which led to anemia, fatigue, and further endocrine issues. I saw many doctors and was given conventional medicine to treat my symptoms but no one could tell me what was causing my problem. I was determined to figure out the root cause. Finally, at wit’s end, through a friend’s advice I decided to try acupuncture to help regulate my digestion, sleep, and stress.

The treatments, the use of Chinese herbal medicine and changes in my diet helped me immensely. I was amazed of how great I felt and through more and more research and testing, my acupuncturist and I had figured out I was suffering from Celiac Disease, an autoimmune disorder. It was in 2003, after 12 years of working in corporate America, that I decided to take a giant leap of faith and follow my passion to pursue a career in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine to help others. SouthValleyACU.com

After taking that leap of faith, I worked onboard a cruise ship treating thousands of patients from all over the world for 12 years. In 2020, I moved to Utah, and worked at a clinic providing both Chinese Medicine and Functional Medicine, incorporating the best of both worlds. I finally opened my own practice and couldn’t be more grateful I did. I am both empathetic and compassionate, and dedicated to bringing health and healing to my patients. Book an appointment.
