Bridging Worlds: Acupuncture, Reiki, and Indigenous Healing in Harmony
Welcome to Kicotan Acupuncture, where ancient wisdom and modern medicine unite. I’m Dr. Guadalupe Vanderhorst Rodriguez, DAc, L.Ac., Reiki Master, and I help individuals achieve optimum health through the integration of Traditional Chinese Medicine, Reiki energy therapy, and Indigenous healing practices from my nation.
My journey began with my own search for healing—a time when traditional approaches offered few answers. That experience awakened my calling to honor the wisdom of my ancestors and combine it with the powerful balance of acupuncture and energy work.
At Kicotan Acupuncture, each session is a sacred experience designed to restore harmony to the body, mind, and spirit. Through acupuncture, Reiki, and Indigenous healing rituals, I guide you toward a deeper connection with your inner vitality and natural ability to heal.

Healing Rooted in Wisdom and Excellence
Have you ever experienced something so uncomfortable that you’d try almost anything to feel better?
In 2007, I found myself in that exact place. After every meal, my food seemed to just sit in my stomach—undigested—leaving me bloated, heavy, and uncomfortable. Can you imagine eating and feeling as though your food refused to move?
I visited one doctor after another, yet none could provide answers or relief. Frustrated and exhausted, I began to lose hope—until a friend suggested something I had never heard of before: acupuncture.
Curiosity overcame hesitation. I scheduled my first acupuncture treatment, not knowing what to expect, only hoping for a change. That single experience transformed my life. My body felt lighter, my mind calmer, and I sensed—for the first time in years—that healing was possible.
That moment awakened something deep within me: a calling to understand the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Soon after, I enrolled at the New York College of Health Professions, dedicating years to mastering acupuncture, herbal medicine, and holistic health.
Today, as a Doctor of Acupuncture (DAc) and Licensed Acupuncturist (L.Ac.), I help individuals achieve optimum health and balance—naturally. My treatments are designed to restore the body’s innate ability to heal, using a personalized and compassionate approach that integrates both Eastern and modern wellness principles.
Whether you’re struggling with digestive issues, chronic pain, hormonal imbalance, or emotional stress, my goal is simple: to guide you toward harmony of body, mind, and spirit so that you can live with renewed vitality.
