Caring Practitioners

Jean V. Kneebone, M.Ac.. L.Ac.

Master of Acupuncture, Licensed Acupuncturist, Certified Reiki Master, Certified Qi Gong Instructor, Certified National Association for Detoxification Acupuncture, Certified Ama Deus Level 1

Jean has been practicing acupuncture since 1992, when she began attending the Traditional Acupuncture Institute in Columbia, Maryland. Jean graduated in October 2004 and was licensed in January of 1995. Jean has treated patients from 8 weeks of age to 93 years old. She has treated patients for depression, anxiety, menstrual and menopausal issues, infertility, impotence, smoking cessation, drug and alcohol withdrawal, and chemotherapy support. Jean has treated patients for many types of pain issues, and a partial list includes migraines, neck, back, knee, shoulder, wrist, foot and heel pain, carpal tunnel, pre- and post- surgical issues.


Jean has treated irritable bowel, chronic fatigue, fibromyalgia, Cystic Fibrosis. Jean has treated patients with dizziness, high blood pressure, stroke, weak immune systems, TMJ, Turrets syndrome, tinnitus and bells' palsy. She has treated many eye issues, sinus issues, and ear issues. Jean says, "Acupuncture helps everyone and every issue. The Chinese say that pain is stuck energy. So acupuncture works to loosen the stuck energy gently, and that helps the patient feel better."

Jean is the kind of acupuncture practitioner who likes to explain things to her patients. She likes to help them understand what is behind their issues, in terms of Chinese medicine. Jean calls these conversations, the process of getting wiggle room around an issue in a patients' life. Jean says, "When a patient can step back from their symptoms and put them into a bigger picture, it helps them cope and speed up the healing process."

Jean has had acupuncture herself for almost 20 years. Jean also exercises regularly, uses chiropractic, massage and reflexology, reiki, and other healing modalities to maintain her health and wellness.

Prior to becoming an acupuncturist, Jean was a computer programmer for 13 years. Jean graduated from Goucher College with a major in Economics and a minor in Communications. Jean says, "My favorite part of being a computer programmer was interacting and teaching the junior programmers. One day, I had a runny nose when I went to my acupuncturist. He put two needles in, one each at the inner edge of my eyebrows. In about five seconds, my nose cleared up. I was so impressed, I thought, I have to learn how to do this." And so, Jean began the journey called Acupuncture Practitioner.

In 2002, Jean expanded her holistic healing practice by becoming a Certified Reiki Master.

Jean is a frequent speaker on Eastern Medicine, holistic healing and acupuncture topics, and is a certified teacher of Qi Gong (crane-style), an energy-balancing stretching and movement practice, akin to Tai Chi.

Jean is available to speak to your group. Please call 410.272.0665 or 877-272-5553.

Eric Sumwalt
410.272.0665

As a Maryland State Registered Massage Practitioner Eric brings over 18 years of experience into every session. His initial training started at the Baltimore School of Massage in 1989. Recently he attained an Associated Degree in Massage Therapy from the Academy of Medical Arts and Business in Harrisburg, PA. In 2004 Eric began sharing his experience by teaching Massage Therapy at CLN Training Center in Mechanicsburg, PA where he especially enjoys sharing his specialties of Craniosacral Therapy and Aromatherapy.

Eric's goal is to take his knowledge of Swedish, Deep Tissue, Myofascial, Structural Integration, Orthopedic Massage, Aromatherapy, Craniosacral, and Energy Balancing to create the optimal session with each client. With his years of experience he has found that the saying "less is more" definitely describes his style of massage. Most people when they hear Deep Tissue think pain. That is not so when working with Eric. He definitely gets into the deeper layers of muscles with a gentle touch. By taking this gentle approach it is easier to go even deeper and reach the clients "core". By getting to the "core" Eric feels that a person can truly attain balance within their body, mind and spirit.

Genevieve DiGiovanni
410.322.6771

Genevieve DiGiovanni is a Certified Energy Medicine Practitioner and Certified Instructor in Energy Medicine for Women. She also practices EFT, Raindrop Therapy and Reiki.

Genevieve has always been a teacher. Genevieve began by watching her Grandmother who came to this country from Italy with a gift for helping people at a time when money was scarce and healing hands were a cost affective alternative.

Genevieve was attracted to Energy Medicine because it empowered her to take an active approach to her own health care. "If I can do this for myself, why can't I teach others to do the same", she thought. Thus, Genevieve began the certification process, which took two years.
