Our Profile

Dr. Danielle Hampton is a Doctor of Oriental Medicine and a Licensed Acupuncturist. Dr. Hampton provides diagnostic and therapeutic services and works in concert with western medical professionals to treat all aspects of her patients' conditions. Dr. Hampton believes in working with all aspects of a patient - physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual - in order for healing to be complete and lasting. This holistic approach underlies her practice.

Dr. Hampton's childhood studies focused on the art of figure drawing and human anatomy and led her to a successful career as a professional art director in New York City. She began experiencing migraines in college and turned to acupuncture as a treatment after western methods failed to relieve her pain. Her headaches stopped after the first treatment. After several years in business, Danielle chose to leave New York to pursue her lifelong interest in health. Her experience with acupuncture directed her toward Chinese medicine. She attended the International Institute of Chinese Medicine in Santa Fe and received her D.O.M. in 1995. Dr. Hampton was the creator and director of the Eldorado Acupuncture and Wellness Center in Santa Fe, New Mexico, a small association of practitioners dedicated to healing and holistic wellness.

While practicing traditional Chinese medicine, Dr. Hampton determined that some of her patients' conditions required more immediate relief than could be provided through traditional Chinese methods. She then began studying new techniques that would compliment her acupuncture practice and allow her to address more difficult and persistent conditions in a more effectively. Dr. Hampton has gradually included several new modalities into her practice. Her central intention, derived from traditional Chinese medicine, is to remind the body of how to be healthy by restoring those functions that have become imbalanced due to illness, injury, or stress. All modalities offered by Dr. Hampton share the common theme of pursuing balance by encouraging and supporting the body's natural tendency toward health.

After a decade of successful practice in New Mexico, Dr. Hampton relocated to Great Barrington, Massachusetts where she maintains a private practice and is a member of the Acupuncture Staff at the Canyon Ranch in Lenox.
